Thank you. That's what I've been saying! I mean look at both of the Toybiz releases, look at the Marvel Universe 4" figure. Not to mention all his comic book appearances over the last 50 effn YEARS...that emblem has always been light blue, not just a shade lighter than the rest of the tunic. Gluing the cloak on is just an in-your-face to the fans. The line design on the yellow border should be outlined in black, too. His gloves, thankfully, have the black spots on them, but both the gloves and sash should be yellow-orange. I could let that slide, but Vishanti knows, by this time he should really have some updated magic effects.
The thing is, they could have done him correctly this time around, and it doesn't mean they couldn't take another swipe down the road....fans will still buy it. I will likely buy this one, if I find it (however I'm not gonna look too hard....maybe it'll wind up on Amazon). But I really should be more enthusiastic to get it, and with these dirty tricks they're pulling, I just don't feel it this time around.

Wouldnt say it looks horrible but just wish theyd put more pride into their work with these classics weve waited a long time time for, man. Especially with these higher prices.

Yep, my thoughts exactly brother. Another version with less shiny colours and brighter chest paint, but still a non-removable cape, and then a cape-less version as part of a wave with a critical BAF figure (.....like Shuma Gorath!) Lol.

DAMN, I have wanted an updated Classic Doctor Strange for so long, and this thing is beautiful! Can't wait to have it in hand! Now can we please get classic versions of Beta Ray Bill, Valkyrie, Powerman, Iron Fist, Adam Warlock, Ronan, Drax, Yondu, Gamora, Nebula, Blob, Hela, and Dum Dum Dugan?
