I don't think there's necessarily anything wrong with the way it looks. I just don't have any desire for figures from the VvV/Spy Troopers/Sigma Six era. I know not everything will be from ARAH/international era, but for me this figure was wasted times two. On a personal level because of the era and on a general level because we already got Jinx twice from SDCC and at least once from Retaliation. Do we really need another Jinx? I know they wanted to give us the RoC Scarlett in some form (we sort of got that with the Resolute version minus the sword gimmick), but it just seems like a wasted opportunity.
I've got all the figures I'm not interested in sold upon arrival...so I'm not worried about it from that aspect. I just thought the point was to give us stuff that people wanted and stuff that we wouldn't otherwise get. Certainly, Jinx meets the 2nd part of that, but not the 1st IMHO. I don't recall seeing or hearing anyone mentioning that they wanted a 25th/30th version of that specific figure prior to the Club showing it to us.
