I know this thread is supposed to be about the new Super7 stuff, but all the old criticisms apply to this Copper Kidd.
The entire wasteful Super7 design paradigm is represented.

While it looks like the faces could be easily swapped out, Super7, of course, chose to create three entirely separate heads.

The "Smiling Head" and the "Whistling Head" look expressively the same except for the mouth.
Someone forgot to make the "Whistling Head" look like it was whistling.

What is the difference between the "Expressive Hands" and the "Flying Hands"?
Which pair is "Expressive" and which pair is "Flying"?

How hard would it be to engineer and manufacture poseable wings, legs, and the beak for May-Day?
Would it really be more money than having two static May-Day figures?

They couldn't put any kind of joint at all on the flying version's wings?
Literally the only flying pose is the one where her wings are at a 45 degree angle.

Is it shrinkflation if the factor removed made no sense to begin with?

I was pretty critical of Retroblasting in some posts above, but I agreed with Michael French about the sleeve in the video I watched.

What is the sleeve for?
It covers the collector friendly box that's designed to keep the figure sealed yet fully visible for display.

Why make a collector friendly box, then make a sleeve to obscure that box?

How did that become part of Super7's manufacturing process?
Why did it stick around so long?
