39.99 is a low price point for them. If you want to army build the Phantom Corps soldier, you have to pay 39.99 for the figure and then 21.99 for the helmet. Or you can pay 49.99 for the Phantom Corps commander and remove some pieces.
This just isn't an economical line. And they release very slowly.

Insert the 'Legally distinct from Godzilla' clip here?
I'll probably pick up Wolfsbane and maybe Major Nior.
Ive already pre ordered most of these crimson moon figures. They look great with huge customizing potential.

It's the best 1:12 realistic looking soldier out there, blowing away Valaverse and Classified in this regard.
But these figures release at a pace that makes Mythic Legions look rapid. I don't see how a line survives at this pace. I want them to do well so we can get the NPC line they teased and these generic figures that go well with Classified (like army officers, scientists, secret agents). But geez. You have to actually produce and ship stuff.
Between Mythic & Cosmic legions there are now over 10 waves spanning over 2 years that have yet to fulfill... including the dragon.
The main problem as I see it is the bottleneck of Chinese manufacturing: the rise of wages, the outsourcing of labor to Africa, and the decline of an already overestimated population. No easy answers for collectors, at least no inexpensive ones.

Aye, you're spot on there, mate. What's more is that they aren't horribly complicated figures, so its difficult to understand just why it takes them this long to produce.
