They would make great nobody criminals for Spider-Man to take down, but not at $28 a piece. I'll wait until they're on clearance for like $5.

With the current price points, I think it is highway robbery for Hasbro to not give us pinless figures on everything. Case in point:

Yeah, no, would have probably bought him if he was pinless, but he isn't, so no thanks.

Back to your question K, I think the pinless joints are fantastic. Like I never realized I preferred them until I started getting figures that had them. Legs don't seem to be as floppy when they are pinless, especially those on female characters. In fact, the pinless legs seem to have a little bit more meat to them. Dark Phoenix's new legs are not as thin as the old ones were.

Avalanche's arms and legs feel so cheap despite the new price tag, which frustrates me quite a bit. At this point, I'm only going to buy figures of characters I absolutely must have if they are pinned joints.

Unless you know some secret technique to fixing joints, being pinned or pinless makes no bit of a difference with defective joints in my book. As for customizing, oh well, that sucks for customizers, but I don't care about their problems when I care about the overall quality of the product I paid for.
