Thats the point to some degree though. These are affordable [ I don't see the Megolike though] unlike anything from HT, EB and other overpriced/more expensive figures like those.
Never said anything about negative reviews but just my opinion about them after seeing pictures. But my mind may change after seeing them in person.

The folks behind the line are very passionate, so I hope they can work out any kinks that have happened and make it grow stronger.
they should of done this-

"they were very tempted to do swappable heads"

then they would have less of a 'bobble head looking' syndrome

Ok, I must've misread what you wrote.

picked up the Captain America outfit. I passed on Captain Action and Spiderman outfit. I liked the Captain Action but I can do without. I'll just put the outfit on my extra HT Narrow shoulders True Type. I have the headsculpt that came with the slim TT body. Maybe i'll do a mask less cap with that head. These are pretty neat. very nostalgic.

I just picked up the basic captain action from TRU. I will say that its a great improvement over the 90s version, I like the new head sculpt better and the body aswell. The accessories are meh, but the included comic is actually pretty good, and gives a good back story to captain action. Glad I picked it up, but I really want to get the spiderman set but TRU did'nt have any of accessorie sets

I grabbed a Captain Action at TRU last week but now I guess I'll need to get what...seven more to complete the Marvel figure line?

No problem.

No I mean I have to buy seven more of the Cap Action figures so I can display all eight of the Marvel characters.
