    Hmmmm....

    I think byt the time of the 3.5" Marvel stuff.... Secret Wars excepted.... there was more of a focus on the collector's market, so stuff with a lot of manufacturing wasn't so popular.

      There was a SHEILD car mock-up at SDCC that Hasbro said they want to release. And a recent Q&A confirmed they want to do vehicles, it's just a matter of deciding if they will sell.

          Jeez.. I can STILL REMEMBER reading that panel for the first time back in '74.., like it was yesterday. I really loved the Spider-mobile..

            The Toy Biz folks made a few FF vehicles, and I'd like to buy the movie Fantasticar for my Toy Biz figures since it looks closer to what I imagine it should look like, but I'm not sure whether the TB figs will actually fit in it or not.

              The movie Fantasticar was a tight fit for the 5" movie figs... so the 6-inchers are too big. But it fits the 4" Marvel Universe figures perfectly.

                I was referring to the FF Animated Series figures.. They list at 5", but I know their legs and 'action stance' would be a bit wide for the seat compartments.

                Oh, well.. 'Guess I have to go with the Toy Biz vehicles, but I really prefer the more sleek movie vehicle. I'll have to hunt down the MU figures.

                Thanks!
