The issue was the pace. We got less than twenty figures in the first half of the year and then around forty in the second half. With Emily saying that the last of the Covid distribution and shipping problems are behind them, releases should theoretically be more evenly spaced out this year.
Yes true, it was the pace rather then the quantity, I do agree yes more the merrier, this line is wonderful, but the pace was the issue, I think in this last quarter of the year I literally got like 10+ figures and that was within a month or 2, thankfully the issue of everything hitting within the same time frame is being addressed, I just can't handle having like 3 waves break my bank in a 30 day time span.

Yeah honestly Classifieds is the best Collector Toy line right now, I was just looking at my recent acquisitions and thinking my goodness are these figures not superb, I love this line, It's hard to even say what a top 10 of this year would be for me, so many really cool figures, I guess off the top of my head I can easily say Shadow Tracker, Wolf Spider, Mole Rat, Helix, Shockwave, Big Ben, Vypra, Copperhead, Junkyard & Mutt really are some favs, but I don't dislike a single one, we got so many Joes this year, and not one I own at least is bad, The only problem I have with this line is that they released waaaay to many figures this year, I need it to slow down, when the line first launched it was like a managable thing, and was a slow trickle, but then by the middle of this year it Boomed and my wallet crashed into flames.

I think those are great choices... Tripwire in the cartoon looked good and the classified representation honored it... ???
Tripwire, Snowjob, and Scrap Iron were characters I never cared about until the Classified figures were revealed. They're really outstanding figures. Almost all of them are. Classified has become arguably the best collectors' retail line in years and has surpassed Marvel Legends, IMO.These are my top 10 (not split up into Joe and Cobra):1. Snow Job2. Tripwire3. Shooter4. Shadow Tracker5. Scrap Iron6. Helix7. Copperhead8. Mole Rat9. Snow Serpent10. Crimson Alley Viper (a superior colorway to the original version)
Hasbro has done a really amazing job on this line. I'm enjoying all the figures I've gotten so far. I'm looking forward to getting Torch and Zander and most especially that VAMP with Clutch.
