Does "nothin" count?

Actually, as huge a supporter of the line as I am, I realize it has it's flaws:

1) Duke arms. I've never been a huge fan of Duke, but when his crappy arms were used for Flint, it was ON!!! And I do think it's a real shame those arms have been used for so many of the original 13.

2) Articulation. I wish there was a standard all the figures had to adhere to (Tomax and Xamot would actually be a decent standard); the only exception being where the wrist cut is.

3) Hands should be standard, though I do appreciate the fists.

4) Repainting heads. No. Just... no.

5) They STILL haven't released all the characters from '85

Have fun, all!!!
