I don't get why people are getting upset about this release... They are just a variant that people can easily skip over.
It's not like these figures are stopping FTC from releasing / announcing Catwoman or anyone other character. It's just a simple repackage of the heads from the accessory pack with figures. The most unique thing about them is the backing card, so I doubt putting this LE of 300 together impeded work any other releases.
Will I be skipping these? Probably, but I see no reason to huff.
If someone wants these - cool. If not - then you save yourself a few bucks.Comment

At some point their customer base is going to get so frustrated by this rehash approach compounded with the other "issues" (terrible bodies, inconsistent head sizes) that customers will start putting their money somewhere else.
I haven't purchased a new FTC figure in like 8 months because there's just nothing that excites me. Nothing that makes me stand up and take notice.
Just my opinion.

I'm not upset at all and I don't mind variant figures, I actually like a lot of them.
I just don't want to spend $100.00 on two figures that I already have multiple versions of.
If they were at regular price, I would have ordered them.Comment

I remember when the accessory set came out, people complained about the price and many passed on it. This set allows customers who passed on the accessory set to get the best of the accessories and the heads at less than the cost of purchasing the set. These exclusives throw those customers a bone. I don't see it as an attempt to "milk the fans." FTC does there very best to accommodate everyone by offering their figures loose, clothes separate, accessories by the piece, etc. Who else does that? Nobody. Put a smile on.Comment

What I don't like is that most of the accessories are the same for Batman and Robin.
If you buy both of them you get 2 shields, 2 mobile labs, 2 bazookas.
Do you really need 2 of each?
It would be nice if instead of those duplicate accessories they also included
the batphone, the Shakespeare bust, the bomb.
But maybe they are planning to release an exclusive Alfred that comes
with these other accessories?Comment
