That's cause Hasbro thinks everyone wants SE and will pack him like 3 to a case and everything else 2 per case, and the female figure will be 1 per case.
Don't know how the case assortment for Retro is, but that's kind of the trend I saw before. The figure that Hasbro perceives as the 'hot' figure will be extra packed and the female figure will be short packed. Just look at the Power Rangers Lightning, the female Ranger is always selling for high prices online cause they are one per case and the Red Ranger of whatever type (or whoever Hasbro perceives to be the main Ranger on that wave) would have lots available cause that would be like 3 per case. That's why you are seeing him a lot. At least he has great parts!!! You can get him for customs if needed.

Okay this is totally off-topic but it's about Marvel Legend's new 3.75 inch Retro line. I just stumbled across them on Ebay but does anyone know if they're exclusive to a particular store? Nothing on Hasbro Pulse about them. Gotta have this Daredevil and Elektra. Will probably pull the trigger on payday...

I don’t know about you all but I bought a few of the retro snake eyes and it’s very very poorly made. The card sucks and the figure is shit... very cheaply made and loose everywhere.
So going in the bin. Fodder parts where I can.

I have that POC SE, and a few of the 50th SE's (same figure) so I have been using my Retro SE's mainly for fodder and customs. What is your favorite factory released SE ME 4" SE then? I totally agree with the shitty card stock and shitty multi-language file cards though.

I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that one. It is the same figure as the POC SE, (v54), which is considered by many to be the best ME SE ever.

And in doing so the new retro ones legs are loose and hang low. Stupid looking. The v54 wasn’t this way. Same built everything but better quality.

I agree with you. It is the same figure that was raved about from the poc/50th line that was called the "ultimate snake eyes". The card is horrible but minus the xtra head, maybe lesser plastic, and colors it is the same one. I consider it my go to snake eyes now.

I should clarify, bar none the best snake eyes Hasbro has released was the v54 one.
I own a few of those and they are great figures. But they used metal t bars. These new ones use plastic tbars. And in doing so the new retro ones legs are loose and hang low. Stupid looking. The v54 wasn’t this way. Same built everything but better quality.
