I like well-made figures, wether they are repaints or not. The new resolute 5 pack seems a very good purchase to me.
-The resolute troopers are amazing figures, my favorite cobra trooper since the night watch troopers. The red repaint looks good and adds an officer to the mix. -The black BAT is awesome, IMO. -I skipped resolute CC because he was too much like previous released, but the black and red CC is actually very nice. -I'm still unsure about Duke. I like sci-fi-ish suits though, so it could be cool. |

Yea but lets face it guys repaints are holding up new figures. But I also believe in any figure made in a comic \ 5 pack should be on a single card (because of more and better gear and paint)

I agree, a repaint could have been a spot for a new figure. I would like to see comic pack figs on single cards too, but thats not going to happen. Hasbro wants to force you to buy 2 figures when you only want one of them. I am suprised they put Tripwire on a single card though...

I disagree. Repaints don't prevent new figures from coming out, they help funding the cost of creating new figures.

Im not saying it stops new figures from coming out, I'm saying they fill up slots that could be used for new figures...

Completely untrue - in fact, repaints help support new figures. New tooling costs money that companies can help make up for, in part, by releasing multiple figures with the same molds.

I am sick of repaints, and I was very upset when I saw that 5-pack, which Im certain has nothing to do with the actual Resolute cartoon. That five pack was a perfect opportunity to make a true resolute 5 pack with Roadblock (or heavy duty), a bat, snake eyes, and maybe a cobra trooper or two or another duke in proper Resolute style.
At least the new regular 5 packs are cool with all the retooled parts. Quote:
