I thought Hasbro's best work out of the last few years was the ROC stuff - I didn't have any trouble finding anything except the "cancelled" mini vehicles at the tail end of the line. There was a lot of variety in the line too (which is something they just can't seem to want to do with the Super Hero lines).
But given the actual movie reference material, they had around 50 or so basic figures, which is outstanding... the only issues I had was there were so many versions of Storm Shadown... and not a figure of the president, and hell, why not make a Secret Service agent? Wouldn't that have rocked? And maybe Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow as kids? Wow, that would have been outstanding. I'd have been all for Scarlett with her motorcycle too.
But overall, the ROC line had some really cool stuff in it. Just a lot of the first wave or so was overproduced. I don't think demand was there either as so much hit clearance, but the line was far, far better than anything from Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, etc.
