You are all wrong, how in the world can you say lady jay or serpentor is worse than that crudy legions storm shadow awwwwwwwwful, a close second is the anorexic baroness, now that figure is bad mold and all a repaint can't even fix that.

I like Baroness just fine, and Zartan is the best figure out of the line. De gustibus non est disputandum.

The worst is Shipwreck, but Serpentor and Flint are close on his heels.

Zartan is a GREAT figure. The color change is different this time because it is a "paint application" to his face that changes color & not the plastic itself. Take a look. Hasbro probably can't use that old color change plastic anymore (maybe it's toxic...who knows). At any rate, Zartan has one of the best postures of all the figures, & we can nitpick alot of things like posture (Baroness) & size (Breaker's head, SE's height), but I would rather keep it simple...

Serpentor has a strange face, some mad eyebrows really could have "helped" the figure. Minus her non-turn wrists, LJaye is really dependent on the paint job. I have 3 really nicely painted ones, but have seen plenty of horror shows in the stores...(green hair, mis-matched eyes, bad lips.) But her curves & stance are all in the right places!
IMO:
I think the Duke arms are the weakest tooling.
Roadblock's got the worst setup.
VvV Storm Shadow is the weakest repaint execution, although I think the Black CC is the most ho-hum of them all.
Shipwreck has the weakest head-sculpt.

And there are a LOT of badly painted figures on the pegs, I have had to do some real searching to get some quality paints. QC needs to improve.
But do I love them all...you bet!!

Dudes, Lady Jaye and Zartan are the best figures of the line hands down! Serpentor is OK, far from the worst. Shipwreck looks horrible, all gangly with a bad face. And don't get me started on Gung Ho, the worst 25th figure by a mile (which rubs off on Torch since its the same mold).

I'm going to have to go with Baroness. While there's certainly annoying flaws with some of the other figs, Baroness is just poor design start to finish.

I keep passing on buying a serpentor because he is hands down the worst figure yet.
