    Won't argue that but that front-loading of repaints Sol Fury mention did not help the line at all either

    I think what really turned me off, especially the movie figs is that they were mostly repaints and at a higher price point.  I understand they have to make money, but this is just screwing your customers. Many complaints on quality control for them also.  Luv\'d the MP figs, but they\'re out of my price range.  For me, RID figs were more exciting than the other toys.  They came up with new characters and new designs.  I wasn\'t able to find all of them, but mostly got what I wanted.  What they got right with the Titans Return line was the nostalgia aspect of it. They brought back characters that haven\'t seen the light of day since the 80\'s and it looks like they are going to continue that with the new line.  The movie was garbage, the released picture designs of some characters that were supposed to be in the movie were garbage.IMO  Not too sure about the new Bumblebee movie.  I think everyone is keeping their fingers crossed on that one.  Btw.  Did they ever release the deluxe Cogman and Hot Rod TLK figs?

    I was hoping even that would get some kind of domestic release. I know it's not that good, but I like SW haha.
