Less articulation, colored plastic instead of actual paint, smaller sizes, etc, etc. That's why I'm bascially selling off my whole collection right now...I'd rather put my money towards well-done statues than half-a$$ed figures, lol.
This is exactly my situation with these. I had a complete set Wave 1 through maybe the second to last Toy Biz Wave and then I just quite and got rid of most of them. I think I have about 20 stragglers left to sell.

So far I have Quicksilver, She-Hulk, and Xorn, so I need the head, right arm, lower torso, hands, and right leg. But my biggest concern is getting Thor with the head.

Fantastic Four wave found

Found these at two different Wal-Marts today. A full set at each store so there doesn't look to be any shortpacked figures. Here's my breakdown.

Mr. Fantastic - Nice sculpt. I like the elongated shaping for his figure and the bendy arms.
Invisible Woman - She's alright, nothing special. It's a shame that Hasbro can't produce a decent female figure.
Human Torch - The picture on the back of the packaging has Johnny with a different (and better) headsculpt than the one he actually has. His head reminds me of some character out of Dragonball Z or Street Fighter.
The Thing - I like this one very much. it's a great comic representaion of Ben. My only complaint it that this figure needs a good paint wash to highlight him better. A great figure otherwise.
Namor - Now we get Namor in classic green scale trunks. Nice effort but he looks like he's been using "tan in a tube", he's kinda orangey in his highlights.
Dr. Doom - Again, another great figure but he needs better highlighting on the armor. His hood/cape is removable as well as his facemask reavealing a smug looking Victor underneath. The gun can also be holstered.
Mole Man - This is IMO the best of the bunch. Great detail in the sculpting of this one. His hands and face have bumps and warts and crinkles that make him one ugly mutha.....
Silver Surfer - I think this one is essentially a redo of the ToyBiz version but with a great silvery paint app. The sufboard is one piece and is long and narrow.
BAF Ronan The Accuser - A very nice addition to the BAF line. Great paint apps and a removable helmet too.


Here a few quick pics I took.

I'm in Ohio, too, and haven't seen the FF series, yet.

I do have the blob's chest that I don't need.
