Well, my argument was never about 1/6, you brought that to the table.
I don't care about the group of fans that can't afford to have stuff from multiple lines (though the thought that they'd be able to afford $220-$300 action figures instead is even more ludicrous).
I'm just saying,
as a whole, Arkham has a bunch of stuff for collectors (generally, not getting into specifics) and Returns has almost none.
Same deal with the Adam West 60s merchandise. That's actually
refreshing. For roughly 50 years there wasn't anything good out there to really collect. Now thanks to a
few figures here and there from Hot Toys, NECA and Mattel, collectors can finally own a piece of what they love.
Arkham? It hasn't been 25 years, it hasn't been 50 years, and it already feels like the market has been saturated with a lot of great stuff. Figures of all sizes, statues, busts, replicas, Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, Arkham Origins, etc. etc. There's plenty to choose from.
I don't care if someone doesn't have enough money to only collect expensive 1/6 figures toys, they still have plenty to choose from.
All I gots iz dis,
And something from Applause that's cool, but basically the equivalence of a shampoo bottle statue,
To date, there hasn't even been an official Danny Devito Batman Returns Penguin
action figure.
