According to toynewsi, Ultimates Vecna has been canceled. While I wasn't interested in the character, this is bad news for D&D fans. I have invisible Sheila in the backburner for a review. I'm waiting for normal Sheila and Hank to do a full review.
Vecna failing may translate to: "non-toon characters don't sell, it's the customers' fault"... and not be: "Our excessively high price with hit or miss QC and ridiculously long delays have damaged our customers' trust in us."
I'm afraid that the model may not be as sustainable as S7 thinks. Disney died, Simpsons died, Power Rangers may be in Limbo, D&D had its first cancelation. TMNT did too, from a certain point of view... yeah, I'm talking about Rat King.
This Vecna could still see the light of day of they go the Deluxe route.
This is what I'd see them doing. I know it's not the best solution, but the Deluxe figures May be a way to soften the blow on some figures being too pricey.
