I'm assuming these figures won't both be the same size? On the show, Shoreleave is clearly at least a foot taller than Al. Well, at least The Alchemist figure isn't just Spock with a bald spot.

The style of the figures dictates that they're all roughly the same size. If you look at old Mego dolls they're all more or less identical. Hulk is beefier than some of them but he's the same height as Spider-Man who is the same as Batman who is the same as Superman etc. The Brock one of these, for example, is the same height as everyone else even though Brock is like a foot taller.

The smaller figures (of which Brock currently only exists) are to scale (on model) so the sizes of them should match, but these ones will always end up being close to the same height, regardless of the character.

And surely those mego 3 3/4 figures will break super easily too.

I doubt they're made to actually be played with, more likely for display purposes, or better yet, kept mint-in-box.

No, b/c toys are meant to be displayed at least.

Some are very fragile and break out of the box instantly.

Plus some pieces are glued on and fall off just as fast.

Go cheap China!!!
