You already have universal monsters figures.
But I don't have THESE universal monsters figures!
Is that Once a Man an EE exclusive then, or..?

I dont think its terribly difficult to deduce that he was referring to DnD. And also fair (imo) to speculate that Hasbro probably made them hold off until they got theirs out first.
But why put them out then?
Look, I really dislike Super7 and won't rant about it here, but I don't know if they deserve any sympathy. They put out their DnD figures almost immediately after Hasbro finished the core children. And they started a G.I. Joe Ultimate line well after Hasbro had already pivoted the Classified line away from Blackout designs (and certainly WAY after Classified was announced). Both were really dumb decisions (or bad contracts they signed). The Super7 Sheila is super cute (and has a better head than Hasbro), so I'm glad I have her. And I do like the Super7 animated Scarlett from the Joe line (although I have nothing to display her with), but these are just weird lines to have ever existed.

He said Classified killed their line just like Hasbro D&D animated killed their D&D line. Tiamet will be the final release there. The only way wed get a wave 2 would be if Tiamet stimulated sales of wave 1.
What a crappy way to close out the Joes line. They canceled the Red Laser from last year so my Red Jackel and Action Force Baroness are missing their leader.
Red Laser wasn't canceled. He came out, albeit a bit later than expected.

Why pay $55+ each for something that may never be finished (like Simpsons having no main cast released 4 waves deep which is almost $1,000) when you can get the entire main cast and bad guy for clearance prices. Those didnt articulate very good but who cares when they look nice in a dedicated display? You can also invest in Super7s Tiamet since that scales better and both looks perfect and will probably never be made again.
I'd agree on both points. Theres also the fact that the animated DnD characters are quite young (with Hank being the oldest at 15) and so the Hasbro figures can kind of scale with Neca's DnD figures as well.

The movie figures look great but I dont like Jinx's accesories. She shoul've come with her staff. They also shoyld've done Big Lob. He would've been a perfect fut for this line.

Silverhawks is still going. There are several much smaller lines still going and one offs. Lots of musicians. Musicians seem to be successful given how many there are being made and especially on the Reaction side. Lots of rappers and punk bands.
