Even McFarlane's nowadays are building a strong 3rd party community with custom torsos and chests to fix/improve the figures, Transformer's 3rd party kits are as old as Transformers themselves, Bandai DBZ kits are the most consistent 1/12 kits out there, GiJoe even has Valaverse etc, etc.
This makes me wonder why Marvel Legends, the probably most popular 1/12 scale toyline, highly customizable due to the softer PVC that it uses and the modular nature of their molds, completely lacks a strong 3rd party upgrade kit community/industry? you can literally count them with the fingers in your hand, Metaverse customs (the only consistent kit designer, still unpainted 3d pieces not proper kits) NOTA Studio (not even for ML anymore), one12props (just clothing and capes) and UndergroundJunkHole that makes mostly McFarlane kits but sometimes a few ML kits, maniple studios that makes one kit a year and that's it
this is a goldmine, every single ML is a kit away from being a great action figure, but somehow no company shows interest in making them like DNA for Transformers Studio Series.
a kit of an alt head + six hands + cloth cape/tunic/hood + two effect pieces for $35 would throw most MLs to the imports category
even upgrade body parts like chest/ass pieces for female figures and alt heads for the male figures would sell for good money, that SHF Scarlet Witch chest piece sold out like 5 times by now between the two companies who made that kit, 5 batches sold out for a chest piece that wasn't even a nude chest it showed a little bit of cleavage. Only the guy who made the Extremis Iron man torso set actually showed some interest and that thing sold out too, the market is there, all MLs are customizable with heat, is the perfect toyline for upgrade kits and this grinds my gears to be honest
