Outside of Doctor Venom (now with a dumbass backstory!) I can't see much of this having a lot of appeal to most collectors. There's not a lot of overlap between 3 3/4 and 12 inch collectors. They'd probably do better if they did Venom, AT Commander and then popular media only characters in the vintage O ring style.

Whatever, when they announce they'll make more sets and then be all "Whoa whoa whoa buddy, YOU didn't buy enough"















I totally agree with Rol here! if they were o rings i would nab em and most people would too! I as well feel like one of those fly by nighters because I keep thinking about selling off all my 25th anniversary toys! just so I can get into the convention exclusives and the international stuff! I mean do I really need the adventure team in a style i really dont care about or shot pictures of much?
