The reason I prefer painting and playing Haiti Repros to Miggle regular figures is:
* The Haiti Repro plastic takes paint better. Also, the white is crisper, so if a team is a white-jersey team, there's no reason to paint the white. The Miggle figures are a different shade of white that needs to painted over.
* The Haiti figures by the bag, are 95% of the time right in terms of the number of figures, and the proper distribution of figures by pose. Miggle figures come 10 to a bag or 12 to a bag, and on the majority of bags I've seen, at least 1 figure per bag is unusable because it's warped or disfigured, etc.
* Haiti figures always seem to be balanced appropriately, and I can't say the same for Miggle figures.
* Paint tends to run at times on Miggle figures. There are seems and such, especially below the knee, where adding paint causes it to run down the rest of the figure. This can be fixed with filing, but there's no need to file a Haiti figure.
* The pads and such are better articulated on a Haiti figure. There is a more realistic look.
* For the cost point, Haitis are a better value than Miggles, based on the reasons above.
But that's just me. I could be wrong.
