I put a case of the ones with Stormshadow and Beach-Head out and they look ill . The plastic/ skin tone paint all look like they are pasty and sick. Really, really hurts the eyes. |

This is actually a step back of the whole 12" line across the board. Dragon, Hot toys, 21st century, BBi, all of them made awesome stuff, this stuff is in direct comparison of the new Elite Corps 12" |

Totally agree with you on this one. Hasbro gives us good ones and then takes a nose dive! I mean, look at Sort Fuze, he has Dusty's chest(man boobs) for crying out loud. Give us something good or don't give us anything at all! IMO.

Here's a suggestion for you: Try making 12 inch figures that look like the 3.75/4 inch characters upon which they're (allegedly) based.

| A more fair comparison would be to the 12" Elite Force figures that were at TRU, and PTE figures, and 21st century, but even then the joes fall short in comparison. I don't expect anything of Sideshow quality when I pick up a $15 12" joe, but I at least expect quality similar, if not better to PTE figures, which are more articulated, have more accessories, and more clothing, yet still cheaper. The durability is high but that's the strongest point for the 12" figures, in all the other areas they are lacking.
