I think the BAF is a gimmick that gives the company and out for figures that suck. They put needed parts with figures that people may not buy. I will shoot myself in the foot here but take Nuke for example. In my opinion he was an amazing figure and one of my top for last year. He had the torso for Ant man. Without that part you have nothing. The upcoming kid Nova will be on shelves for months and he has the torso. It is like insurance. I mean put out stuff people REALLY want.
I feel though that it allows them to put out crap products just by adding an important BAF part. It is a bad mindset though because if you have to think like that then you shouldn't put the product out to your buyers. Exclusives don't have BAF parts because they will likely sell due to good concept and unique product. This isn't always the case but I feel like it often is how the BAF works.
