That's just since Hasbro took over - you throw the older TB Legends in and the variety gets even bigger (ML8 Storm's head compared with Hasbro's Shadowcat - for example).

I like my Hulks and Things to be big. Not Marvel Select big - but TB FO Hulk is my go to Hulk. He has been #1 for me since he was released, some 4 years before the first Avengers movie. MCU has nothing to do with it - it's just my personal preference. I have the Savage Grey Hulk from the FFF wave but there's not room for him on my shelves as he doesn't make the cut. If I'm going to display a Grey Hulk, it'll be the TB Galactus wave one (or Joe Fixit) - because that's what I prefer.

I, for one, am grateful that we have so much variety to choose from. If you want to subscribe to whatever OHotMU (or whatever other literature) says re. heights and weights - go for it. I'm happy for you. That's how you want to collect. I'll continue to buy and display what I want to, because it's my money, my collection and my display space - to do what I want with.

AMEN!

Collect what you want and how you want. Let others, for some strange reason, stress over what you collect while your collection piles up.

Great post Robo, however, you might get accused of being an “internet tough guy” for voicing your opinion. Keep standing up to that nonsense.
