I'm glad some people are into this retro thing that was started by all those ReAction figures. People seem to enjoy the nostalgia and that's great.

Doesn't change the fact it's all a cheap cashgrab by the companies. Way overcharging on figures that require minimal tooling and assembly by today's standards.

Before people assume the usual: that it's great to have more options, remember that this does have an effect on more expensive-to-make figure at not-that-much-higher pricepoints. If these 5POA figures prove to be much more profitable for companies, they will eventually put out less figures with modern articulations. Profit always comes first.

IMO if they want to do retro figures and charge them at an inflated price, at least do what MOTU Origins and TMNT Ultimates are doing, keeping the vintage aesthetics while providing more modern articulation. Everyone wins.
