I guess my beef with some of the modern figures we get is that those looks really don't last long. By the time we actually get the figure, the character is either dead or in a different look, rendering them obsolete in a collection. I'd rather get characters in the looks that have stood the test of time.

It’s been Hasbros formula lately though, and ya gotta admit it works, release a less desired version or look of a highly requested figure, magneto, havoc, dazzler, colossus, storm,kitty pride, etc. fans will clamor to get it, but in a year or two we’ll be chomping to get 90’s havoc, classic magneto, outback dazzler, Jim Lee storm, classic colossus, etc. but if they put out a definitive version of a character it makes the less known, or popular versions peg warm. For instance, I can’t think of another version of wolverine I need for a while... unless it’s horseman death. and if they don’t give us another Deadpool it’ll be too soon.
