Latest wave of ReAction+ o-rings announced today... Pythona, Big Lob, Destro (arctic), Snake-Eyes v2 (in arctic parka). They look ok, about like all the others, but the big kicker is S7 jacking up the price to $25. They must be making them in the highest tariff place on earth.

The S7 website has them in stock already, but if you order through them, the set of four is $100 + shipping + tax = $120. I draw the line at paying $30/ea for 3.75" o-ring figures. Maybe Amazon will carry them with free shipping, and maybe (hopefully) at the same price point as previous waves. But I'm going to wait and see. None of those four is a must-have, although Pythona is certainly a glaring hole in the o-ring collection. She'll be the HTF one of the wave.

Yeah, the pricing is rough, especially since they jumped from $20 to $25/ea.

I pick and choose, and even at that, I wait for DD to get them in stock and use their bi-weekly 10-15% off coupons. Usually saves me nearly $4 per figure.

The sculpts are a little on the goofy side, but they mesh with vintage ARAH o-rings pretty well. And they do try hard to get the toon/comic decos reasonably accurate. I appreciate the effort, even if their pricing is painful.
