I can see why you like your number one, he looks fantastic.
It is just a shame that Hasbro's distribution is so bad that perhaps your list might have been a bit different if you could have found all you wanted last year. I just hope it improves.
Well I know for a fact that both Bespin Han and the new Ahsoka probably would have cracked my top ten (unless there was something very wrong), Ahsoka cracked the top 20 with her first fig and it was kind of crappy LOL. I had hoped Blaista Shan would, but when I got here that face scuplt knocked her down too much.
There are tons, Wonder Man, Quicksilver, ect that probably would have populated the top 30 as well.
Silver Samurai is one I still need to pick up. I have no desire for the Wolverine, so paying $18 for one figure always halts me in my tracks, but it is one I need to troll for on eBay or something.
The Wolvie was better than I expected, but I can see why you would avoid him. Wolvie is overdone.
Sci-Fi was always a favorite of mine from the original line. I think it was his costume and colors, but I always thought he looked too cool. Again, missed this one at retail.
I got that one online, after the Bespin Han feasco I didn't want to take any chances with these joes.
Dr. Strange was definitely a cool figure, and I'm glad I got one. I do wish his paint apps were better, but that's the norm these days, sadly. I'm still on the hunt for the Astral Projection variant.
Mine's eye is a bit weird, which is why I didn't get a close up, but I can live with it as I have seen worse at the stores. But you would think Hasbro would try to do better at this point.
Airtight was another figure I had as a kid that I liked a lot. Again, I don't know why, but he was definitely cool to me.
I love AT, I am often shocked to hear Joe fans say they never liked him, weird to me.
Taskmaster falls into the same category as Silver Samurai; I want him but I don't want to pay $18 to get him.
Really, you don't want Deadpool, I am surprized to hear that (not knocking it, but DP is useually the draw of that pack).
I never even knew that original StormShadow figure was out. Not that it would matter, obviously, but that is one I would have gotten for sure.
He was very shortpacked unfortunatly, the mold is being mostly reused in teh Retaliation line (Both with variations of Stormy and the Red Ninjas). But it is a great mold. I hope you guys realized that even with I give a figure a 5 star rating I hesitate to call it perfect and this one I use the term perfect without hesitation LOL

Yeah I know there is a lot of "Doom and Gloom" talk on the interwebs now, with that in mind I just plan to roll with it msyelf, not appologize nor turn into a whiney fanboy, both are not worth my time.
