>>8532827ehhhh.... he's not right or wrong.
like with any large line, especially with a relatively high budget, you're going to end up with a lot of good figures.
The ratio of bad and good figures depends on opinion, but i lean toward there being mostly good figures.
Bad thing about the pre-25th line is that a lot of figures don't match well with modern toys. So their style fits within their own line, but that's it. The guns, armor, ammo, helmets, vests, etc etc however... unf. So many great accessory pieces were made for the GI Joe Vs Cobra toylines. Vehicles were weird, but that's always been a GI Joe thing.
I really really really really like this Snake Eyes still, which is basically a proto-25th figure that came out in the Venom Vs Valor waves.
