Includes some comments from this board! http://bit.ly/Jml4qY Let's keep things rolling until Clark Gregg gets his figure! Your thoughts?
The only thing that would frustrate me more than Coulson not getting a figure at all would be if it was a crazy expensive con exclusive or nigh impossible to get ahold of.
He's a guy in a suit, but, hey, so are the Men in Black. Give him his big old gun that blasted Loki, and we're good to go.
He is an important character in the movie, just like Maria Hill (who I have no illusions about getting a figure of; we're lucky if we get Black Widow with Entrenched Toy Industry Dogma still rampant in the toy industry), and he's been a recurrent character since Iron Man. We definitely need him, Maria and maybe a generic SHIELD agent. It's not like we need a dozen more Iron Man variants; TRU is still trying to sell off the ones from two years ago.
Doesn't Hasbro have several suited characters to work from? 6" scale or 3 3/4" would only require the gun and a new head. Simple sell.
