Are you talking about the 6-inch Retro Collection X-Men figures with retro style cards (Hasbro actually makes them)? They are the same size (6-inch scale just like the actual 90's Toy Biz figures). You may be getting confused with the smaller (and cheaper) 4-inch X-Men '97 Epic Hero Series line Hasbro is also doing. The Rogue I posted is from the '97 Marvel Legends line (again, 6-inch). |

I find it confusing, myself! To answer wildfire2099, the 4" X-Men '97 figures are totally compatible with the Kenner line. I've actually been wondering if they were originally part of a planned upcoming wave that then got rebranded. |

Oh, there are 4 inch ones? cool! I didn't find those when I did a quick search this morning. It's odd.. the 6 inch ones have bubble cards very similar to the Kenner series, but the 4 inch ones have much larger boxes.

I've actually been wondering if they were originally part of a planned upcoming wave that then got rebranded. Yep, and the 3.75" figures line (aka Marvel Legends 3.75") is actually made by Hasbro, but they threw the Kenner label on the front of the card as part of the branding (Kenner long gone and absorbed by Hasbro ages ago). Just in case helpful, here's a full breakdown on the various lines: Marvel Legends 3.75" ("Kenner" labeled on the front) are like this one: www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/229140?o=4 And you would want to match that with the 97 Epic Hero Series line (4-inch) like this one (and yes, packaging is completely different, so will not match if you keep figures on card): www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/248270?o=4 Hasbro has also been producing as part of their full-size Legends line the "Retro Collection" that have 90's style cards like this one (again, 6-inch) which is a throwback to the old Toy Biz line: www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/218693?o=4 And matching this scale is the new 97 Marvel Legends line (like my Rogue earlier), like this one (6-inch): www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/248064?o=4

Wow, a new Crystar figure announced! Did not expect this, how cool! I literally just acquired the Bronze Age run on Friday. That's a wild coincidence! |
