He-Man 2002 Variant Question
#1
Posted 27 August 2002 - 06:31 PM
would you rather have variant He-Man and Skeletors? e.g. Bolo Blade, Bat Blade, Karate, etc.
or
would you rather have four new figures per wave and He-Man and Skeletor in every case assortment from now until eternity?
I think it was the Star Wars comment I read somewhere that made me think of this. Chewbacca was never redone in the original line, or Darth Vader...they continued to make the same figures over and over for the life of the line. They could have made a new one for each movie, but they did not. They knew that there had to be a Chewie and Darth out there for each movie and kept them in production....
Thoughts?

My choice. Although 2-3 variations of the main figures is okay with me, but any more is lame.would you rather have four new figures per wave and He-Man and Skeletor in every case assortment from now until eternity?

I do think that they should have the original He-Man and Skeletor available throughout the line. The main problem I had with the Batman line back in the day was that they didn't ship a basic Batman figure after the first.

If you start late in the collecting scheme of he-man then you will have to pay a scalper up the yang to get the two main charcters who should be easily found.

I agree completely with Adamantiumwulf. The original He-Man and Skeletor were awesome!I think that they should continue to release the orignal he-man and skeletor.

My vote would be for a He-Man/Skeletor variant every other wave. Otherwise, they are going fine in my book.

The collectors market cannot support a toyline by themselves.
That's true, although I can't remember the last time I saw a kid buy a Star Wars figure.
I assume the reason why collectors never need another He-man figure is that as soon as they open the figure, they plop it on a shelf and NEVER TOUCH IT AGAIN. Collectors keep a toy secluded as some sort of a religious idol, so that it is never again soiled by the hands of mortals. Kids actually play with their toys, so they need a new version every once in a while. Sometimes collectors need to be reminded that toys are for kids... just like Trix...
