I cannot confirm this and I don't like feeding the rumor mill, but I feel certain people in the community have more influence than the rest of us...
Meaning certain people's complaints are heeded more than the general population. So if they aren't bitching about it, it's not getting fixed. I'm sorry if I'm way off, but that's what I think happened. |

Well, that Clutch mold did get retooled and released in the Retaliation line. Too bad it was 5 POA.

I know on principle, we shouldn't have to customize such expensive figures, but by now I think we are all used to making improvements to club figures.
Head swaps, updating webgear, better weapons... The build for Clay Moore is very disappointing, but I wasn't expecting much from this figure anyway. For people that want a pre-eye injury Tombstone head to stick on their current Tombstone, here you go. For anyone that wants a Sunbow accurate version of Clay Moore, SDCC Matt Tracker head on any Cobra Trooper body... As for what everyone else can do with their Club Clay Moores...Ebay? |

Salvo needed a total rebuild. Clay Moore could use one. Fast Draw just needs an accessories overhaul. Granted, that makes him much easier to fix, but I don't hink that's galvanizing enough for the Club.

Agreed, but the overall issues with Fast Draw is the helmet and armor, and most people seem like they would be satisfied with as little as a helmet change. I don't think his overall build is as nearly hated as was Salvo's. Salvo required a complete rebuild. Fast Draw would be OK with some tweaks (at least acceptable, to most).
I guess that's somewhat splitting hairs, but I have never seen a fan outcry as aggressive and uproarious as it was for Salvo. I guess my point really is is that Salvo is a poor battlecry for the idea that the Club listens, because he sucked beyond I think anything before or since.

I can see what the Club is doing with Fast Draw though... they're trying to get that blue air hose look the ARAH had. That's why I'm not really that upset with his build. He's as I expected. Is it perfect? No. But I can see their thinking.
My biggest gripe is they can do amazing builds, but on a few they just stop short of being an easy, brilliant build. Because no one, and I mean NO ONE knows for sure what parts the Club has access to, or what the stipulations are on parts usage, not one of us can say if something is available or not. Rampant speculation turns into fact here, and that's unfortunate. We all assume because they were able to change Salvo that it's an easy process they can replicate with these guys. I read of cancelling subscriptions because of these builds, but that's really on the individual... they'll reveal most of the figures before the due date, if you're that on the fence about the other figures, FUCKING WAIT. Perhaps our complaints, gripes, advice, suggestions will hold more weight with low subscriptions, but if you sub before the full reveal, and add the fact it's their last hurrah, is it like axonrey said, "galvanizing enough" for them to change?

Do we really need Rip-It though since the 25th Anniversary HISS Commander kinda fills that?

What still doesn’t make any sence to me is that if Hasbro isn’t making Joes right now, why are they making stipulations on the club as to which parts they can use? Even if it is the clubs last run Hasbro should have lifted the “parts ban” and been happy the club is still keeping the plastic crack junkies hooked while Hasbro is rediscovering it‘self.
