RnR, it also was for you to showcase a good guy and a 'bad' guy. Yes, the line can be blurry on who is good and who is bad (Oktober Guard, for example). THey don't have to be in their element really. It started out as a "can the figures stand the test of time in terms of us liking them or hating them." What we thought was great 20 years ago (using an ARAH, for example), might not be so today.
If you were to throw down an ARAH v1 Tunnel Rat, I don't think anybody will dis the figure. I think everyone agrees that that figure is perfect and Hasbro has NEVER done a better version.
On the other hand, take the ARAH Dreadnoks (sans Zartan) and it'll be a mixed bag. The big heads destroy it for a lot of people.
The Target Range, literally, is that the FIGURES in questions are the TARGET for our love or hate.
Rich, you may remember the days when I'd go running to people to fill in slots. I'd run to Craig, you, DAVE, Shane... Even old Luis if I couldn't make my own date OR I just needed slots. Ah, the old says. lol
