That also brings up what you and I consider mediocre...
Universally, Grand Slam was anything but... however I love ARAH inspired figures, he was one of the first I ever got as a kid, so I was actually very happy to get him. Same with Tan Grunt, I had the glider as a kid.
As hated as Windmill is, he's a fucking quirky-ass figure from left field... I would have preferred his American version sure, but the India version is goofy as all get out and I love it!
There are figures everyone else here loves to death that I find boring and useless... but that's just our opinions. Yet they're spoken as fact.
And as much as I want Golobulous and the Royal Guard, I'm not sure how anyone thinks the Club could do that based on their previous releases. It would require a lot more than simple kitbashing and parts swapping. I'm a fan of the Club, don't get me wrong... but even I know they have limits. If Hasbro themselves have a hard time just getting us figures, (as explained at JoeCon 2016) I know the Club surely does too.
Just enjoy these while they last...
I am actually looking forward to the Funskool Windmill. And you are right, let's enjoy getting new figures (some good, some bad) while it last. After all, even back in 1984 there were some figures that I did not like then. As much as I dislike getting yet another CC, there are some collectors that want him as evidenced here.
