For most of these, I would not at all like to see less gear, but in the instances where they go the ME era way of almost giving me too much gear, stands all day.

I actually do not use the stands. Classified figures typically have a very solid stance due to the drop hips. The only figures I've had any issues with are my Alley Vipers. Their ankles are weak. The weak ankles are further tested by the large and weighty backpacks. I wish Classified backpacks were lighter. It would help a lot.

If they changed anything pertaining to gear allotment I'd gladly take fists. I don't require 8 extra sets of hands that I'll likely never use. Fists or relaxed hands would be most welcome. I'm excited they are including those with Retro Storm Shadow and hope that's something that continues. I'll use fists quicker than a figure stand.
