Damn, they must really like giving retailers things that will make them want to cancel the line due to pegwarming.

I have most of the figures already, but I still buy most of the repaints. Why? For the same reason I bought POC w3 Snake Eyes and Vintage Jedi Luke. They're made better or in this case, painted better, than the ones that came out the year before.

I don't hate repaints or better versions of figs I already have. I just hate Hasbro can't get it right the very first time!
