The wrist joints are amazing: I hope they consider using them on other upcoming toys.<br /><br />Odd that the same line seems to include the best and worst articulated figures of the line.Erinhttp://theclearancebin.weebly.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38380907.post-4601726872444635982009-10-06T20:55:52.175+11:002009-10-06T20:55:52.175+11:00They all look pretty great, but i must say that Ch...They all look pretty great, but i must say that Chemo and Black Adam look the best.

Love all the figures, the Guardian was plain. The only complaint I have is the right foot joint on my Black Canary is unusually loose and when i displayed her with the rest of my JLA on top of my medicine cabinet she fell into the toilet.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746529474952379355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38380907.post-11380509705480636412009-10-04T21:04:58.211+11:002009-10-04T21:04:58.211+11:00For those few minor disappointments this really is...For those few minor disappointments this really is a strong wave.Who would have thought we would ever see Chemo,Guardian and Mantis?FBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10347429791201197738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38380907.post-89981794838474269472009-10-03T10:05:58.654+10:002009-10-03T10:05:58.654+10:00YES!!!
An excellent wave,a s you said. There wer...YES!!!<br /><br />An excellent wave,a s you said. There were some missteps such as: the Black Canary paint issues and the lack of side to side hip artic, the plain Guardian, the seemingly random neck articulation, as some of mine have up/down as well as side/side while some don't, and Green Arrow's bow, which is almost useless because the arrow that's molded on is too short to really put in a pulled-back pose. <br /><br />All that said, this is a great wave and the Chemo is just flat-out Kick-ass. I was worried about the "bubbleless" Chemo as that was the one I originally received with my blue Wildcat, but here's to hoping I can wrangle a "bubbly" torso soon.<br /><br />StarsStarmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38380907.post-12752121179498644462009-10-03T05:33:04.747+10:002009-10-03T05:33:04.747+10:00What?
