Part of the lack of longevity is because of this gamble and planned obsolescence. The movie fad toys make way for the next movie fad toys.

I think zellers on upper sherman in hamilton still had some avatar figures on Liquidation when they closed, Bugs life and Terminator figures too...

I only ever picked up the salvation toys because the boy thought marcus looked like metallo and it was 2 bucks and it fit in well size wise with his 3 3/4 figures.
