I mean just look at the Torso articulation. While it's a good way to make your figurs bend down and back it's cutting right into the belly of the figure. It's a very visible joint, especially on Mercy. I am a big fan of Pharah and I am really not pleased with the lack of accessories, especially with only 1 faceplate (same with Mercy) but Hasbro doesn't give me any, which is completely okay if I just want a Pharah on the shelf and that's it but for more it's not good enough.

Personally I think it's great to have variety and competition, so I don't mind Hasbros line at all, i.e. I really hate that GSC lacks in the effect department. They can't put enough of it with their Nendoroid shipgirls but Pharah, who has a rocket launcher, not giving a rocket launching effect? Well that's cheap.

Both have their pro's and con's, for me the pro's of the Figma line still outweighs the pro's of the Hasbro line and I really hope GSC will continue to make western figures. I would by a Witcher Ciri figure in a heart beat.

First, welocme to the Ark!

Second, I think it'd be crazy if the Figma Overwatch figures weren't better than Hasbro's offerings simply as a principle of price. To get Mercy and Pharah from Hasbro costs $50 (based on Gamestop's price which does usually go higher than regular retail) while getting them from the Figma line is at least $150. I still intend to strictly go Hasbro as a money-saving effort but if the Figma ones weren't overall better toys that'd be a real head-scratcher.
