I don't get whats wrong w/ toy companies. Obviously the 6" figs from most lines sell, especially from Marvel and DC, yet these companies are still hesitant to release them and would rather release the crappy 3" figs w/ stupid gimmicks. All they do is clog shelves and I always see kids going stright for the 6" figs when they are in stock. It baffels me that Hasbro takes forever to release these 6" figs and the Avengers ones and won't make a wave 2 either. They obviously sell w/ the way they fly off shelves. i always here the complaints and cost cutting from companies in regards to tooling, which requires plastic. Are they not at all aware the amount of plastic wasted on these 3 3/4 inch figures? And then companies like hasbro turn around and bitch about losing money. How bout ya stop making crap then you'll make money

I can't tell you guys how many times since this lines figs have hit shelves that I've seen kids skip right over these. When kids pass over crap you know its bad.

^ I dont recall any kid owning the 3 3/4 figures. I mean yes, i knw they do, but does hablow think that a kid that age is gonna give a crap about the size of the figure? You stop making the 3 3/4 inch figures, stop puttin gunecessary junk in with the package like useless stands and choking hazards, put that wasted money into a decent articulated 6 inch figure.
And make a variety of characters. Thats why WWE sells well too because there is some variety of characters. This movie got TWO characters...FREAKING 2. And every other reinvention of something else that no can relate to...IE glow in the dark spiderman, or gives a damn about.
I reall just feel like some of these toy compaines are outta tocuh with their consumers. I mean even the kids are different today yet they make stuff for preschoolers. It wont be soon enough until these companies get off this 3 3/4 inch love fest.

Hasbro has to be one of the dumbest figure companies. So instead of giving us people like the Black Widow, Suited Tony Stark, Phil Coulson, Gwen Stacey, Captain Stacey, Dr Connors in 6 inch form that would sell we get 3 spiderman figures and a handfull of basic avengers figures that don't get stocked in until months after the movies release. (Besides for the Avengers getting stocked once in may) Yet they release hundreds of the 3 inch crap that doesn't sell.

Me neither but I did finally see the 6" Avengers pop up, so I still have hope that maybe these will show up eventually too.

I found these today and I ended up passing. They aren't the usual Marvel Legends type quality. Spidey's legs seem too long and his upper torso seems too small in comparison to his abdominal area. Unless I see one on clearance or reduced, I don't think I be adding it to my Avengers WM exclusive movie collection.
Ultimate Spidey looks pretty good in this set. While I wasn't interested in getting Lizard, all of those "sidekicks" were a nice touch.
