With DC Direct marketing these in at least a small way as collectors type figures why not a quality line of 1/6th from Marvel partnered with SSC?
I realise Toy Biz has produced some figures in the last couple of years with film tie-ins for mass market. But I'd like to see a high quality collectors line done right. SSC could make that a reality. Aside from needing to do a new body sculpt I'd say they could get this up and running as quickly as they have the Star Wars line. And with thier gaining the Star Wars license I'd say SSC should have earned the street cred to do any product line. If Medicom can sell 1000 pieces of Wolverine or Spiderman for the Japanese/Asian market, don't you think SSC could sell two or three times (or more) as many high quality figures at a price point roughly half that of the Medicom figures for the world market? I do. I would buy EVERY figure offered, regardless of how popular or obscure the character and my guess is that there are a lot of other fanboys who feel the same way. 12" is absolutely the way to go for Marvel and I hope they can work something out with SSC for a license.
