She has several outfits, maybe this one would work for a Bishoujo?

Bummer. Think this is a dead line?

Marvel's Bishoujo line? Dead? IMO, nah, I don't think it is.
Although it seem like it's not as hot as it used to. Like, back in 2014 and 2015. But, I like the new Marvel Bishoujo that's coming out: Kate Bishop.

Major factor why I'm holding back a bit in buying is the price range. They just grew quite pricey. Made me really picky which bishoujo to get, coz, I don't really have a lot of money to spend on this :P (I bet most can kinda relate to this.) Plus, I'm running out of space fast.

The Bishoujo line as whole, I don't think it's dead. Does it seem dead to you?

I think they shifted focus on IPs. DC and Marvel are down to a trickle while they went big on Little Pony and Horror plus GI Joe and Transformers.

I'm still holding out hope, but expecting 2023 to be one or two additional to comic lines.

So Hasbro then. Maybe they're a bit of an easier license to manage.

Yeah they've definitely shifted focus. The licenses they had are what drew me to this. I have no interest in ponies, transformers, or fighting game characters.

The DC/Marvel trickle hurts, and the removal of edginess to the line hurts more. The climbing price hurts the most, and I can't justify paying double for a plastic figure that was half the cost a couple years ago... plastic production has not gone up that much.

The Kate figure is.. ok? It's not edgy or doing anything interesting, but she's there and looks ok, I guess. It should be about half the price. Lara was the same... boring.

If they reissued some of their popular ones at original retail, they'd clean up.
Not sure if it's dead, but not holding my breath for any new interesting releases, either.
