While not as exciting as Wave 7, I still look forward to this wave. The only one I'm not caring much for is the Baroness, but maybe that will change when I see it in person. I really like the Tiger Force Flint however. That was my first version of the figure, so I look forward to adding him to my 25th shelf.
As for all the bitching in this thread, everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Some people dig these figures, some don't. But the downright hate being thrown out there is kinda silly. I can't see Hasbro going out of thier way to say "screw the fans", or how do you guys wanna piss of the fanbase today? It took them serious balls to even try this scale again after the somewhat disappointing sales of the last few 3.75 inch lines. Are these Wave 8 figures perfect? No, but it beats the hell out of getting no figures at all. Remember when this line was announced, it was only going to be 25 figures total. We have already well exceded that amount, and the line hasn't even been going for a full year.
Personally, I'm happy that the line has exceeded Hasbro's early expectations. I'm happy about the figures that have already come out, and the ones that we know we will be getting in the future. I'm not gonna bash Hasbro because this wave isn't as great as the ones that came before it. I'm gonna buy them because I like the figures, and I want to support the line. If people want to shout boycott, or nail in the coffin that's fine, that's their opinion. But it will be those same people complaining that no one supported the line when it comes time for Hasbro to axe it again. Personally, I hope that doesn't happen for a long time. Sorry for the long rant, but after seeing so much of the negativity in this thread, I just had to say something.
