Nice Balthus...We really have to give Hasbro the character selection thing! Man they have just pock at it so far!

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Well, I hope they aren't bulls***ting by saying that they're gonna try and bump the articulation up and please the fans.

Marvelous News: Many fans continue to compare and complain that Hasbro's Marvel Legends figures just don't hold up to the old Toy Biz ones. Can you explain to the readers why Hasbro can't just make the figures the exact same way Toy Biz did? can't the figures continue to have the same amount of articulation and paint apps as the older figures did?seemed to work for them, so why wouldn't you just keep making them the same way?

Hasbro: There have been some changes on the Legends brand for various reasons (which include the rising cost of raw materials and production) but we do still work closely with Toybiz and Marvel to ensure that we're capturing the essence of each character. We're always listening to collectors through these Q&A sessions (and through the boards) in order to address the issues that they view as most critical. We've heard them ask for more double elbows and double knees and we're acting on it...but these changes don't happen overnight. Toybiz Legends were awesome and we want you to enjoy Hasbro Legends just as much. That's why you have our word that despite changing market forces, we strive everyday to pack as much value as possible into each and every figure.

So we might get the old joints back!!! But notice how Hasbro doesn't mention anything about paint...

 

[Roughneck]

They were clear that they know we want it, but rather vague on if it will happen

 

[newavengers12]

They will do... We wre getting better figs with every wave.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

I wouldn't hold my breath.

 

[venom892]

DC universe is going to smoke hasblow.

 

[newavengers12]

I don't think so.... Their character are weak, compared to Marvel. IMO

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

DC has Batman so DC trumps all. HAH!!!

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

Yeah, but batman is lame. So how does that really help them?

 

[newavengers12]

FTB, you know my oppinion about Bat...he is the only thing they got!

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Yeah, but batman is lame. So how does that really help them?

Oh **** you jealous twat.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

FTB, you know my oppinion about Bat...he is the only thing they got!

True.

 

[newavengers12]

Why they just dont give him to Marvel....With who would you team him up?

 

[venom892]

I was a marvel zombie once too but DC has alot more then bats.Read Green Arrow #1-75 the recent volume.Made GA my second favorite DC character and 7th overall.Also when written right Supes can be cool.52 was cool and Identity crisis was beyond awesome.Read Geoff John's Flash and you'll love Wally.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Why they just dont give him to Marvel....With who would you team him up?

I would say Moon Knight.

 

[venom892]

Dude Moon Knight and Batman would straight up hate each other.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Exactly.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

The only reason why you like Batman FTB is because you like little boys just like he does. You're always trying to get into their batcaves. You freak.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

Bro, I have a son. Thats f***in' gross.

 

[venom892]

See same thing could be said for cap.Bucky found his identity by walking in on him undressing.

 

[FEAR THE BAT]

There were alotta pervs writing for these books way back when.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

Bro, I have a son. Thats f***in' gross.

Yeah, but you love him in a platonic way. So luckily, he's excluded from your young male lust.

 

[SpiderHulkThing]

There were alotta pervs writing for these books way back when.

Yeah, it's not like there are pervs roaming around in the present or anything.
