what a huge let down. I might only buy the awe striker and hiss tank and ditch the ugly figures

Sorry for overstating. Yes, I do like their work.
I'm just thinking how Hasbro was stupid enough to fire their very-talented designers and yet can't produce anything better themselves and just keep going back to the well. |

Did Hasbro contract out with Boss Fight back for the 25th anniversary line? Just curious to get some historical context on the figures and how Boss Fight Studios ties into this.

I hope they do a little updating on future releases (the feet on the Snake Eyes, for example, make it hard for a lot of the figures using it to stand easily), but if they just want to re-release PoC molds, I'll take that too. They should fix the head sculpts though. New heads are not a big lift when re-releasing a figure, as other lines have shown. It's a let down that we are getting the same Baroness head.

Ah so Hasbro fired the original design team for the modern era figs who then went onto either work for or start Boss Fight studios?

I’d suggest (like already mentioned) that we should be encouraged by the return of the scale and quick sell out. That along with seemingly initial success of the Classified line and a coming movie all points to a future for ARAH Joe. A chance to get things people want. I don’t think we could really say that two years ago.

Pretty much most of the 25th-30th-POC was designed by the owners of Boss Fight Studios and/or ValaVerse.

While I am excited to see that the smaller joes are coming back, I am a little sad that the vehicles have not been modernized. Looks like these are just repo of the original molds. I do appreciate that the costs are very reasonable, just expecting a lttle more on the vehicles.
