It's cool that they're trying new ideas. In order to grow as a brand overall, GI Joe has to introduce new concepts and not just re-sell us our youth every few years. That also means characters like Kamakura and the Blue Ninjas in Classified, it means the Movie line (don't boo, I'm right!).
These figures reduce my interest in the line b/c I'm a completist collector (sue me) and it adds not just one figure that's trying something new, but six. Again, just for me. If I'm buying one, I'm buying them all - and that means $108 for just-okay ideas just in this one case. I have all of wave 1 and also three Target exclusives so far, but probably won't rush to fill up the rest of the line until I can get them as a marked discount - b/w Waves 2 and 3, I'm nearly 40 figures behind, which is over $700. Probably buy a BAT or 2 when they come out, and that's about it. Super 7 is flooding the market, which is unfortunately the complete opposite of the Joe line. Feast or famine.

This is correct and I'm hoping for Shipwreck and Snake variants. I love what Super 7 is doing with this line.
ETA: It just occurred to me that Shipwreck and another Snake-Eyes have been announced for the next wave without pics. I'm not saying they'll be in Snakeling uniforms, but knowing Super 7 anything is possible.

I think it's sad when people have to sh*t on everything that isn't their cup of tea. I'm loving this line. As for the pricing, smaller company + smaller production runs = higher pricing. We've been having this argument since the Club days and some people still don't get it.
Also, as a completionist myself, I find it fairly easy to pick 2 or 3 of these 9 variant situations that satisfy me. Just make sure to get one with each skin tone and sculpt variation. |

That's exactly what I'm doing. I preordered the Snakelings and combat engineers from BigBad the other day - went through and looked at each one to see who came with what. I'm glad I've been doing it this way or I wouldn't have even realized that the Shocktroopers come in blue and green as well as having different weapons.
