I'd love to have a Marvel Legends styled line with at least the Street Fighter 2 cast and some of the more modern favorites.

I really want someone to start a series of well articulated and reasonably priced Street Fighter figures that goes beyond just a handful of characters. I don't see that happening with Playmates.

I was thinking about this the other day while reviewing some of the Dollar General figures and thinking about the recent price jump of figures from Hasbro and Mattel. I think we do get stuck on the prices we remember as kids or even as young collectors and always apply them. Today's toys are definitely more complex with more paint applications and such. <br /><br />Of course, there definitely is that odd period between like 1999 and 2005 where action figures grew larger with more articulation, crazy complex accessories, and it seemed that everyone was fighting for collectors dollars. That was an unusual time with companies like McFarlane, Resaurus, Palisades, and Toy Biz trying to put out the most complex and amazing stuff at the lowest prices.

I'm enjoying the new figures and while I only own four so far they're quite nice and just feel like good, solid modern action figures compared to the impressive looking yet brittle and delicate figures of old.Barbecue17https://www.blogger.com/profile/11169946891265569135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6207582653049948588.post-976568050393099832022-01-02T16:54:17.062-08:002022-01-02T16:54:17.062-08:00I'm interested in the movie but this figure lo...I'm interested in the movie but this figure looks really weird.
