Unfortunately, Hasbro seems to have almost no interest in cultivating a true "movie line" and appealing to adult collectors. Their Marvel Movie lines are 100% kid focused.
Remember when they teased the Iron Man 2 figures? We were promised Nick Fury, Black Widow, and Iron Man/Tony and Rhodey in their suits with their faces showing.
Well, of those movie-specific figures, we only ever got Fury and that was a year too late and only as a pack in with other figures (the drones, which were also WAY TOO LATE, even though they were the main baddies in the final fight sequence.)
Even Whiplash - the MAIN baddie - was nearly impossible to find. Instead, we got 30 different useless Iron Man variants and countless "comic" and "concept" figures. And that's exactly what's on the shelf right now with Captain America - endless Cap variants from comics and only, what, TWO figures from the film? (Red Skull and "combat" Cap?)
Ridiculous.
Did they really not think a Tony Stark with removable helmet would sell? Why can they give us 15 different "comic" Cap variants, but not the awesome, leather jacket wearing USO version from the film?
Ugh.
