Those are just my personal views on the matter. It might be for other people, but it isn't for me.



Honestly, I kind of want the movie Hela as I think I like it better than the one I got in the Dr Strange set.



You voiced an opinion, and then you got fussy by saying no one can be disappointed with the wave if they haven't read stand alone BP comics, then when someone showed they have stand alone comics, you told them those don't count because they are modern stuff. Then when the person showed you that one of them is not modern stuff, you told him he needs to make sure he is clearer on that fact, to pretty much prove himself worthy of disagree with the case character selection.

Just because someone doesn't read stand alone BP comics does not mean they can't be disappointed in the wave. Hell, seeing characters in a BP wave that you don't know might entice people to learn about them and maybe even read stand alone BP comics. That is how I ended up really liking some of the lesser known DC and Marvel characters. Like I would have not known who The Question was in DC had it not been for JLU as non of the comics I read at the time had featured him. I didn't know who Jessica Jones was until the Netflix TV show. I didn't know who the Guardians of the Galaxy were until the movie. Who Speed Demon and female Beetle were until the figures came out.

Getting characters in different mediums gives them exposure. Doing BP specific characters in his toyline would be adding to that exposure. Most know who Blackbolt is, we all know who Namor is, I didn't know who Shuri was until someone mentioned that name last night. You say the line would not sell well if it featured all black heroes, but how do you know this? How do you know it won't be the opposite? There could be a character in the movie that the audience ends up loving so much they want a figure of him, but if one isn't available right then and there, the opportunity is lost and Hasbro will never regain those lost sales even if they released the character later. It's called a risk investment, and it is something that everyone is too afraid of these days because failure has suddenly become this peception of ultimate destruction. That if you fail, you are done.

i never said "no one can be disappointed with the wave if they haven't read stand alone BP comics" i said that without knowing the succuss or pull the characters from the movies will have on fans why risk bringing them in figure form over figures that are already pretty much known, be real yea BP has bodyguards but whos to say all they do is appear and then die, who would want a figure of that char who is just a background char (ofc idk what the chars are or do just saying) pretty much like how the antman wave didnt make yellow jacket even tho he was the main villian and had a cool suit design (just using it as an example. and guardians only put the main cast seeing how they are a group and not a solo based hero like BP just basing off the title alone ofc.
