Got mine an hour ago.  No QC issues that I can see.  But... after looking at it, my opinion that there is nothing there to justify a $26 price tag stands.

Also, why do the stormtrooper helmets have neck pegs?  Are they meant to attach to something?

You can swap heads with the current Stormtroopers.  I get the concept, but it seems like those smashed helmets would be better suited as an accessory to a Boba Fett (Tython) figure where he just decimated those troopers with his Gaffi stick.

The inclusion of the Stormtrooper helmets is just weird, and I agree that the $26 price point is a total ripoff.  They should have left out the two helmets and cut the price by $8.   The helmets aren't worth $4 each.

You forget about the Boba Fett premium markup.

I mentioned to Tim at Bossk's Bounty when he did his review that I bet these heads would look good on the Remnant Stormtroopers.  Nice to have a little variety there.
This is the way.

I saw this figure at FYE in the mall today, they had one hanging on a peg in there little Star Wars section, not with the other main section of action figures.

They wanted $45.99 for it.  :-X

Down the street at a little collector store I had neve been to before, they had three of them on the shelf, for just $27.99.

I am still holding out for a better price, but I think if I run into the Morak Fett at Target I might bite just to have a Mando version of him, but even that price is making me leery, especially after Koska, Mayfeld, BS Galen, BS Saw and BS Merrick all just hit clearance prices.

There's an FYE near me that I've checked out a couple of times.  While it was nice to see figures in stock, it was largely the reissues.  And the prices were not exactly competitive.

As for that Tatooine Boba Fett?  Amazon has it for $26 and change.  I thought I saw it on sale recently on either Dorkside or Old Republic Collectibles for under $20, but it seems to be sold out.
