I'm guessing TRU exclusives again.

I think all three look pretty good, but I'll wait to see them in person or see better pictures before deciding. The only one that I really want to have is that Dr Strange.

I love these...hope they mine all of the other films for figures, too.

Sad thing that the 4" line is going to this, just a small assortment of movie 2packs.

You should read the hate going on at the Star Wars boards over the lack of love for 3.75". At least ones with more than 5 points of articulation. I predict this is a scale that will be dying out soon. Hasbro just wants you to buy 6".

Yeah I do not understand why the scale is in a rut. We had lots of cool vehicles & bases with Star Wars. Fans pleaded with Hasbro for a SHIELD car. The Helicarrier & Quinjets were jokes. Current Star Wars vehicles pale in comparison with their previous offerings. Hasbro is just cheaping out.

They really need to find new factories to afford to make the good stuff again. They have already moved all or if not most of Transformer production to Vietnam.

I hope since they had a great Xmas quarter that they can return to the great 4 inch scale offerings.

My guess as to Hasbro's thinking is: 6" for the adults and 3.75" with 5poa for the kids (and any adults who tag along for nostalgia's sake, but mainly for the kids).

 

This way Star Wars can keep cranking out new figures to keep up with the rigorous new movie schedule. One per year forever. That doesn't leave you with a lot of time to devote attention to anything besides the new guys that will be in next December's film. Sculpt about two dozen new guys with a head, a torso, two arms and two legs, mix in NERF with the vehicles (yep.....NERF!), rinse and repeat for next year.

 

3.75" Marvel and GI Joe? They'll fizzle out.

I just see it as a phase... right now we're in a 4" drought, mainly because so much has already been done. Now they're making the cheap figs for the kids, the 6" for the collectors... and I say in 10 years or so, 4" figs will make a comeback and they redo a bunch of favorites and ones that haven't been made.

Thor is getting a set!

 

SKURGE IS COMING!!!! plus a new Enchantress but that means less articulation
