They did Danny Ketch real dirty with this. The Ghost Rider anniversary should've been a retro wave like the 90s Spider-Man and all the rest. We could've still gotten Robbie Reyes, Johnny Blazes and all other kinds of "demon" like characters, but the fact that HasLab said for the fund to reach the goal TO release more "demon-like" characters, is just a kick in the teeth for all the ML fans, especially Ghost Rider fans.
I get it on some level, a lot of these characters are larger, and require unique tooling, but I also call BS. McFarlane does a lot of unique sculpts for characters. Some do share some parts when they can get away with it, but they are not the giant Hasbro is, I don't see how Hasnro can't budget for wave of characters or even over the course of a few waves to give these characters. Or hell, even make them Pulse exclusives even. ToyBiz made a true Blackheart figure, and they didn't charge more for him despite him having a unique sculpt and being much larger than most ML figures at the time. So if anything, this is making Hasbro look incompetent.
Excellent show! Hasbro has been doing their best to cut off the hands that feed lately! Trying to pinch every penny they can put off their loyal fans and communities! #DitchHasbro
They've got an ego and it showing, and more and more they are shooting themselves in the foot multiple times. Still, I would by lying if I said I wasn't part of the problem because here I am still looking at some of their figures to buy.
