"the [Vulture] wings are hard to stuck in the arms, and you need to use some superglue so the wings will not fall off."
Hardly a ringing endorsement. |

The wings are hard to stuck in......
Ha ha, got to love the way it is written!! It is that old Falcon buck, and that figure does it as well for some. I used a teeny weeny dab of blu-tac to help them stay in place on Falcon. So don't let that warning put you off, or you can wait and buy the wave retail in another 2 months if you wish. Also I would like to point out Samsson 37 tipped off the figure, I just put a link up. That seller is highly recommend as welll from me. I am sure some collectors will have horror stories but I have had 20 plus positive transactions and the figures are ALWAYS first quality. About 10 days from order to delivery in jolly old England. Some nice figures in the MI 2015 wave 2, by now if you are reading this then I am sure you are aware of the new offerings shortcomings and strengths. From reading reviews and forums, it seems that everyone likes the figures better in hand as opposed to the factory pics. (The toy ark staff pics make this line look amazing by the way) In my opinion if there is a character you like I would suggest going for it if you can't wait. Here in the UK the cost is LESS than retail as most of these are under a tenner. However, in other locations it might be to far over retail to justify the purchase. At least there is free shipping and never an import duty from customs with the Chinabay sellers!

Yet more figures with reduced articulation...not a wrist or ab joint in sight. This will be a dollar store line soon.

Thigh swivel gone, torso swivel gone, wrists are no more and depending on the sculpt, might not even get bicep swivels. On the occasion where it "makes sense" to use the old bucks, to quote Dwight Stall of Hasbro, this is the reality. Unique sculpts eat the tooling money and we get these at an increased retail price point as well. The saving grace is the wonderful character selection..... Hasbro is smart, jack the price, reduce the quality BUT, give them key pieces that they need.

If these hadnt been de-articulated and given a nasty price raise i might considered getting a few but now they can head to the big lots and join their 5poa cousins.

And STILL no sign of Northstar or Colosonaught.....even they ARE 100% shown on the card backs of Armoured Daredevil and Shanna.
Also, I went and re-read the SDCC Hasbro wave release information they gave us last summer and these WERE listed as a 2015 w.2 release. With the six fiures listed and a case assortment of 2 figures each per case of 12.... no room for a variant. At least this wave....perjhaps we COULD see a revision case with them included, but i just dont see that happening.

Or we could all just wait a couple more months for Collosonaut & Northstar, so they can join Emma & GoldTron
