That's the biggest downfallfor having exclusive access to the concept art. Sure, your product is out first, but many times it's incorrect. Still, the demand is there for those Quantum suited Avengers and Hasbro's leaving it on the table for these overpriced 3rd parties to lap up. Honestly (and probably sadly) I think if Hasbro would re-release the Hawkeye & Black Widow 2 pack in the correct colors (and include the Captain America head sculpt) and then do a Rocket, Thor & Hulk 3 pack they would cash in big time. If theyreally wanted to cash in they could release a single pack Cap/IM figure on a larger buck and really make some waves. Just my personal thoughts on the matter. I really do hate to see fans have to resort to these over priced, overrated and pretty damn flimsy imports to complete their displays.
I couldnt agree more. I feel like Hasbros never disappointed me so much as with their offerings for Endgame. I mean, there are literally so many characters in that movie that look exactly like they did in previous movies that Hasbro could even just make a series of 2-packs with one brand new figure and one repack and it would be worthwhile while still making them money. I mean who wouldnt want a rerelease of Mantis, or IW Doctor Strange, or even Drax and Nebula? Theres so many figures we dont have from the biggest movie ever, where are the Endgame versions of Rocket, Captain Marvel, Nebula, War Machine MK 6, etc? Thats not even mentioning the redos they need to do, Rescuewith more accessories, final battle Thor, Cap and Tony, Hulk in his jumpsuit, normal versions of Black Widow and Hawkeye. Also your point about the quantum suits is so valid it hurts. One of the coolest looks of the movie is severely underrepresented by everyone except Hot Toys. My only hope is that Hasbro realized they did the suits wrong, and so didnt release Hulk, Rocket, Thor and War Machine. I really hope we get repainted versions of the two suits theyve already done, along with those 4. They did a pretty decent job with IW, why cant they do Endgame right?
