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.
less articulation is what these figures need. That is why these figures blow so much!

Toybiz made better quality figures IMO.

I'll keep on saying it: the amount of articulation KILLS these figures

Mastermold speaks the truth. And, yes, joy_division, I hear you. The ridiculous
mid-abdominal "joint" absolutely mutilates the beautiful sculpts of some figures,
for example:

The only think that bugs me is the abnormally long necks on some of them. Fixing that solves a lot of problems.

Happened to be in Dayton for a band competition today and stop by the local Wal-Mart. Picked up the Mole Man, which is IMO very cool. I also picked up the two pack of Cable and Marvel Girl, they are both just alright. They also had the other two pack and some more of the FF figure. Namor had very weird highlighting, Thing seems to have a small head, Human Torch had DBZ type hair, and Mr. Fantastic was pretty good. I also noticed that the packages on these seem smaller. Did anyone else notice this?
