The premise of being rewarded for buying an entire wave with something extra isn't a bad idea. It's like a loyalty incentive for having the whole set. My problem is that with every wave there are figures with low desirability yet are essential to completing the BAF which is more typically desired. My case in point for reference is the Onslaught wave, I'd like to have an Onslaught toy but want none of the figures needed to build him. My only course is turning to the mercy (or lack thereof) of eBay sellers. Were Hasbro to sell a deluxe Onslaught on his own though I wouldn't have to face down that path. They could keep the whole-set incentive with connecting diorama pieces or something else along those lines but when entire figures are only made available for buying 6+ other figures I didn't want in the first place it irks me.

Edit: I don't like to ramble on but my other issue with BAFs is when I don't want the BAF but do want a figure or two in the wave so I end up with some other guy's head and arm that I can't do anything with.
