It's a damn shame that you have to actually make this distinction to Hasbro because now I'm convinced they would actually give us 25th Gung Ho on a Retro card.

All bets are off after that crappy slit wrist Duke offering.

It's because of that decision I don't have any faith that this Retro line is heading in a positive direction.

I completely agree. I think most of us can closely assume what we were getting for the bulk of the line. So far we've been pretty close. I felt from jump that Duke and Scarlett would make or break this line as the true wild cards that we all really wanted a upgrade for. Scarlett was sort of a "hit by pitch." She wasn't a home run but she didn't strike out. She got on base but by the least way possible. Duke was the backwards K, ninth inning third out that ended the game. I passed on the entire wave and am pretty indifferent going forward. Yeah if I see something I like I'll cherry pick but I'm going out of my way to get it nor get put out if I don't.

Given what this Retro line has been so far, I'm just mining this line for parts. SS, SE, Scarlett, Destro, and Hiss tank Driver all have salvageable parts. If they start giving us CV builds, then I'll change my mind.

Like CC said, they got on base with Scarlett, but lost the game with Duke. I think the next figure that needs a huge update is Falcon. Maybe they can come back with a Home Run, by giving us the Final 12 Falcon in V1 colors.

That’s not a good sign unless they eventually clearance everything.
I just hope that does not damage chances of future waves.

Went to my Walmart last night. Joe vehicles are still full price. No retro figures. 3 Classified Roadblocks are still hanging, the same 3 that have been hanging there since August/September. Not single Marvel Legends, SW Black Series or TVC figure at all. Mostly empty pegs.
