And they lost the ability to make guns for their DC figures shortly after, that's why there are not a lot of choices. Whereas 6" scale's been around for a long time, across many toy makers and licenses. Sure, McFarlane 7" figures are everywhere now, because they're current products. Before that, I can't even remember who made 7" scale figures...maybe others can help me out here.

Perhaps "popular" is not the right term, I should say "been around longer", which affects accessories' availability.
Wow, I didn't realize McFarlane's contract with DC was that recent. But that makes complete sense to me.

I know NECA makes 7 inch figures too, but I don't think they make any accessories either.

When you say, "And they lost the ability to make guns for their DC figures shortly after", is that because of film makers banning the use of firearms on merchandise? If so, that would be Warner Bros for DC correct?

I think I read somewhere else before that Hasbro is kind of going through something similar with Disney.

Anyways, I'm guessing it would only be a matter of time until others start coming out with 1:10 accessories. Until then, I guess our only option is EBAY and McFarlane's Munitions Pack... =)
