| I agree. If sellers do not want to include accessories,
then they should state so in their listing.

This part is for this figure, and Captain America is incomplete without the shield,
IMO.
Another one...
Isn't even Captain Marvel without her mask...

And...
Hawkman comes with 2 different wing sets, but only one is included. The other
one is useless, if it isn't included, IMO
And this one...
Again, he is not Magneto without the helmet, and what happened to the 2x2 round
plate that was included with the other version of Magneto?
Same as Hawkman, sh154 mentioned above.
Wolverine without claws...come on now, that is just wrong people.
Wolverine again, but unlike Magneto, he has his helmet, but not the hair, and
again, no claws!
Who is Wonderwoman without the lasso? I do know that the lasso came with another
figure, but still, Wonderwoman with no lasso?
Ah, a LEGO set with Wonderwoman, and no lasso, I guess that one doesn't actually
fit my argument  .
One example I did not include is Thor, There are several versions of Thor, and
none include the hammer...Thor without his hammer is like Wolverine without his
claws!
Anyway, now that super-lots are not included in the wanted-list searches, sellers
are forced to either list them separately, and risk running out of one before
the other, or, including them, and either taking the loss, or listing the figure
for higher than average. I think we should be thinking of changing the rules
from now on. These figures should include the accessories. That is what buyers
want. They don't want to have to scrutinize the listing for what is included.
They want what should be included. Please make new rules for listing figures,
that accounts for what buyers expect when they buy a figure.

I don't think adding accessories to minifigure catalog listings is
the way to go. Perhaps a better option, one that would most likely accompany
an improved shopping cart/automated checkout, is the ability to add variations
to products in your stores. That way, on the product page or checkout screen,
a drop down box would appear next to the applicable item and allow the buyer
to select 'add Mjölnir + $0.75' or something similar. This way, sellers
can potentially sell more of the accessories and buyers can retain their freedom
of choice.

Minifigs already have so many ambiguous rules, and exceptions to rules, why not
have a
