Exactly. Movie figures have an expiration date of sorts. This Carter will be much more likely to get bought now off the recent hype of the show than if she were released further down the line. Starjammers fans will be just as likely to buy those figures in 10 years as they are now, etc. Comic and movie lines are two different beasts.

Agree with this as well. Strike while the Iron is hot and that sort of thing. Im complaining ( while not really complaining) that the D+ shows have gotten some of the best representation from Hasbro ( outside of the head-scratching decision that was the a Eternals wave.. all my local stores are STILL flooded with them!). But these versions are months old!! Safari Jacket Wonderman is decades old.. how about some love for those amazingly ridiculous 60s designs!!

Anyone else notice how this figure is already on sale, after the first What If?...aired 4 months ago...

Yet its been 15, 20 years since we've seen the likes of classic Dr. Strange, Ultron (and yes Strange is on the way and we finally got Ultron, but still, look how long it took), Yellowjacket, Annihilus, Spiral, Toad. And we've never seen a Legends Firelord, Wonder Man (original suit or safari jacket), Starjammers, Red Wolf, Warriors Three, Moon Dragon...don't even get me started on how we still don't have our Golden Age guys in their first appearance outfits.

Making an observation, and yes, grousing too. I love my Captain Britain and Hydrostomper, so glad that they were done. Just wanna see more actual legends before another 10 years goes by!

Agree, while I love the releases weve gotten, truly the D+ shows have been an embarrassment of riches, it does get frustrating that some long established characters are overlooked because a writer for a tv show thought he could use one character over another and Hasbro jumped on the bandwagon and dropped some product.

Honestly I would have skipped the What If? Wave altogether if it werent technically MCU and my mental laziness couldnt decide if I would add them to my collection or not haha.

Kinda feel the same way about other recent characters ( for arguments sake, the last decade or so ) like Miles and Null getting Legends love before the Warriors Three or Wonderman. While being equally annoyed / while still loving the new additions to my MCU collection that the movie versions of the Eternals or say, white Vision gets new figures while comic versions are no where to be found. Well ok, white Vision is on the way but truthfully the upcoming isnt Hasbros best work

its been awesome when Hasbro does give us a long awaited character like Quasar but sure does seem that with the crazy release schedule Hasbro has embarked on lately that wed see more fan favorites more often rather than new versions of characters weve already gotten

It's the same reason Marvel realise Tie-ins for most of the shows and movies, it's to get more sales by cashing in on the hype. For Hasbro comic figures can be made whenever but for movie and tv figures there is a short window to get the product out so it will sell.

The shield is wrong, too. She uses her red white and blue shield on that mission.

Yeah man, that's also true.

If the hair was accurate then this would've been a more complete release, which should be the case here considering that everything is reused. A new head or a new hairpiece, wouldn't have been so troublesome.
