That is what has kept me from really collecting this line. I have a handful of these figures. And while I do want Apoc, Thanos, Cable and a few others, the way the finished product looks will ultimately sway me. I was excited by a lot of figures, then see the finished figure and it just killed all that excitement. GI Joe is definitely superior product in every way.

I have to agree with you on most you stated. Except the females of the line are usually superior to the males (due to their awesome female buck). They may look fragile, but looks can be decieving. Just like real women.

There aren't many, but some of the MU are as damn close to perfect as a 3 3/4" superhero is gonna get (Thanos, Juggernaut, Hawkeye, Jessica Drew, Black Widow, etc). You gotta pick and choose, but in doing that we all know what that leads to- Gotta get them all. Lol.

And finally, the day has come when modern GIJoe is superior to something. And Joe is getting a lot better in the coming months!
