They also don't care who showed up in what episodes of a series nor what the paint jobs are, they just care about the character, if they care about the character at all to begin with. Look at those garbage Wolverine variants Hasbro has done in the last two years. The general public eat those up because it's Wolverine. Being old, nearly naked, in brown, in yellow, in gray, they don't give a damn. Most kids don't give a damn.

And I saw most because there are some that do. I know a few, and I was one of those kids. I only wanted the look of Wolverine that was his main look in the comics I read and was on the cartoon I watched.

CASUALS?!? *patooey* Kill 'em all! They're the problem!

Nah, you may very well be right when it comes to main characters that appear in MCU or whatever show is hot but somebody's buying all these comic characters too or else they wouldn't make so many figs for the discerning connoisseur.

I kinda doubt this is a very popular line with kids, but for those that do collect, I suspect you're right that they don't really care what version of a character they get as long as it somewhat resembles what they're used to seeing.
