If they were masked villians like Eel or Blizzard, I wouldn't mind too much, but these are characters whose faces are not hidden behind a mask, and honestly, the whole thing looks off and reeks of cheapness on Hasbro's part.

@Boy Blunder: Does the reused Nuke head have a painted on scar, or is it plain? If there is no scar, I'm using that for an unmasked Eddie Brock.

Only Silk/Jewel bothers me personally. If we get more army builders through the re-use of parts I'm all for that. Vintage Widow looks perfect with that headsculpt, I didn't notice it was MJ. I think it is a bit sad that they could re-use the head of a Korean-American character for a white character though (I'm not implying anything about racism here, no one get excited) but generally if re-using parts means more characters we might otherwise miss out on I'm all for it.
Having said that, you're not wrong, it would be better if Hasbro would minimize the reuse of headsculpts when it comes to unique characters. I'd just rather get the character with a reused head than not at all.

TRU Australia aren't certain they are getting the A-Force set, which has me worried. I want that damn set.
