This is why lines can be dropped so unceremoniously as well, like Sideshow abandoning 1/6 LotR before releasing Gimli, Merry, Pippin, etc.
I don't have a problem with no removable helm on Juggs, I personally didn't care for the head sculpt on the ML one and if I had ever tracked it down would likely have never removed it.
I did have a pretty cool older Toy Biz Juggernaut that although kinda ridiculously proportioned, I liked quite a bit at the time, and had fun with his removable helmet.
Also, I do think it's fitting that ML has moved more towards making characters that will still be compatible with ML collections and won't be too noticeably oversized, like Juggy, Abom, Hulk, and so on.
well, that's not quite true, between the select hulk/red hulk and abom, we've had sabretooth, stark and war machine who are too big to be compatible w/ ML, and we also have magneto on the plate before juggy, who looks like the mags i've always wanted, but the question remains, do i want a mags who's a full head taller than omega red? likely not, which is why i have not placed him on order.
i do have to confess to one thing though on that juggy, the desciption says a massive 7 inches tall, which in ML would make him just about right, but in marvel select, he'll out up to hulk's chest. remember, motucs are roughly 7 inches tall... remember this?
