It would've cost more effort which this outsider(looking in) thinks Hasbro has been sorely lacking in regards to the actual toyline and it appears to have gotten worse since PoC ended.

Not on down here, but I do see the Dolphins playing the sucky Bucs.
Not feeling the uniforms, the teal is too bright and it really needs a few touches of orange. It's workable but I think they need to go back and tweak them a bit more.

These are the best figures to come out in a single wave since POC though.

It's only been over a year since PoC/30th ended AND this is wave 4 (technically) - that's a bit pathetic.

Why do you say that?

Because it took them this not long not only to get near the same level as PoC but to produce figures actually worth buying. For me, these first 3 waves of Retaliation are the worst waves I've ever seen - not one single carded figure was worth it.
I freely admit to being a picky collector but this hasn't happened since I started collecting again with ROC - there was at least one figure in a wave I felt was worth having.

There were some good ones in those waves, like the Joe Trooper, Dark Ninja, Beachead, Kamakura. 3 pack Firefly and Slice/Red Ninja. I really like Ninja Duel Snake Eyes too.

I'm just watching the game cast here on ESPN of the game. Colts are up 17-3 in the 3rd quarter.

The 3 packs are 3 packs, so for me not part of any specific single carded wave. There are some good ones in those, seems like 1 awesome fig per pack and the other 2 range from meh to gah! I was underwhelmed by the Joe Trooper - the design is alright, the execution is dull though. And of course, just say no to ninjas. Of course, there is an exception - if I manage to find the new Ultimate SS and the new Jinx, they'll be the last ninja figures I buy.
