I personally love the pin-less look I feel like it adds to the perceived quality of the figure and makes the price increase seem somewhat tangible to the upgraded design.

What I am not a fan of is the inconsistent use of pin-less joints. I think the new longshot looks great (except the weird shoulders) then I open Avalanche and he feels like a cheap after thought... The pins are all there and visible and it really grinds my gears that almost every wave now is about 50/50 pin-less/pinned.

These are brand new designs and Hasbro thought "Don't worry about the arms we did pin-less legs so they should be happy!"

"But Boss what about Yondu?"

"Screw the comic book guys we haven't tooled anything new for them in ages"

Blankly stares at Vulcan and returns to putting those gloriuos pins back in place...
Honestly i hate pinless joints. With the “wonderful” hasbro qc it was fairly easy to be able to fix frozen, loose or otherwise defective joints and to take figs apart to make customs. With pinless its now near impossible to fix said joint issues and makes customizing a lot harder. I just dont feel the trade off is worth it.
