$34, huh? At that price I could be seriously tempted to buy the Helicarrier!
But then what about the future of the Avengers line? We're just a little over a month away from Toy Fair. And when you look at the Avengers Box Office gross numbers, it's the number 3 movie of all time with over $1.5 Billion worldwide. One would think that Hasbro might want to revisit Avengers in 2013. But what should they do? Here's a wishlist:
BASIC FIGURES
Captain America (new uniform, no helmet)
Thor - Mountaintop battle (no armored sleeves)
Thor - Helicarrier battle
Tony Stark - Snap on Mark VII armor
Hawkeye - No sunglasses, rapelling gear
Loki - Unarmored
Maria Hill
Agent Coulson - with Destroyer gun
Chitauri Warrior - with removable facemask & articulation
DELUXE FIGURES
Banner & Hulk (properly scaled)
Black Widow & Chitauri hovercraft
There are definitely a good number of other figures you could offer if they expanded the Avengers comic line, too. But I imagine Hasbro might not want to cross over too much with Marvel Universe.
