Do you all think that there are a sufficient amount of paint hits on the new joes coming out? I think a lot of them look a little "drab".

Name six. I'm not trying to be sarcastic, I'm just curious of which ones you think lack paint.

I can name all of them, I think just a few more hits here and there, particularly some drybrushes and maybe a few washes in specific areas. Nothing insane. Like take "Red Ninja" for example. He has a nice wash on his wrist guards. I would really like to see more of that on all the figures. Some of them have a lot of sculpted detail and are just sort of lacking the paint detail to make that sculpted detail "emerge" more. I have already repainted a few of mine.

Ah... well the the simple reason is cost. Besides given their track record for applying paint that's suppose to be there, I can only imagine that additional paint aps would make a mess of most figures. Imagine results like Shipwreck's beard all over a figure.

That is why I add some to almost everyone I get. I do agree with you about the lack of paint on some.
