Ultimately we've just seen the latest continuation/reincarnation of the same 25th line that started in 2007 and evolved through several incarnations until it ended in 50th at retail and finally went into a full hiatus when the Club shut down.
What the line looks like so far is very similar to the relaunch of Star Wars TVC. This appears to be a much smaller line with smaller waves, released further apart. Much of the line will be rereleases and repaints of previous figures in the line. Both lines have some new sculpts of previously released characters. It remains to be seen whether this new line will give us never-before-made characters as the current TVC line does. But it's fair to say Star Wars has a lot more opportunity to do that than Joe given all the new media for the brand.
Ultimately, the current TVC line has its fair share of critics that say the line does not live up to its glory days by not releasing enough characters and focusing too much on rereleases/repaints. Looks like this line is setting itself up for the same criticism.
