Is it just me, or is the new WWB value pack filthy?

Not anymore filthy than other stuff as far as I can tell. It all soils pretty much the same to me. You still need to clean it after shooting. How much crud is there doesn't make it that much harder for me so I guess I just don't notice.
 
I agree with Shoudek. I usually shoot WWB FMJ but just put 75 rounds of UMC-Remington JHPs through my M9 and it was way more dirty. My hands were black after a couple mags! However, no failures and the stuff is the cheapest hollow point you can find locally.

I used 9mm WWB for the first-ever time last weekend. It was appreciably dirtier than my usual choice, Federal American Eagle.
 
Of course, my stainless and nickle silver guns "show the dirt" more readily than my blued or matte ones

Right before I shoot any of my guns, I will go over the slide rails and the barrel hood (at a minimum) with FP-10-soaked q-tips, and I constantly wipe down the slides & frames with a silicone cloth, so there's no doubt that the "wet" gun (but not "drenched") is attracting more burnt powder residue, than if I shot them bone dry. However, the guns function 100% reliably, and are much easier to clean.
 
Chronograph data on 9m Winchester White Box

Someone inquired about chrono data on the 9mm WWB. Three diffrebt 10 shot strings on three different days 1153 SD14; 1142 SD25, 1159 SD18-that's as good as any out there. Only my very best reloads match or exceed those SD's.
TonPS: I think the WWB is great ammo at a very reasonable price.
