I probably should add, the MU figures feel a LOT better than the Toy Biz SHS. MU are way more sturdy and durable, they don't feel as cheap nor flimsy. Articulation isn't overdone either. I prefer the SOTA 6" Street Fighter approach; super articulation without ruining the sculpt nor looking gangly.

Add double jointed elbows to what we already have(like the new thigh swivels, swivel/hinge wrists and rocker ankles), and I would be content.

ok, so after i saw noodlechows layout i was messing with all my MU with swivel thighs dating all the way back to thor and collosus, and i found that captain rogers and x-23 stood out completly. It was the damn waists and the loose leg joints. They were the only two to have this problem. actually namor does too. cylcops, cable, thor, has the best waist design because it has the extra space for the upper leg to move. why did hasbro make this change?

It was stated earlier already, but I'd like to add the new Bullseye and Daredevil to those two. I fiddled around with Symbiote's comic pack recently and we both agreed that as awesome and welcomed as these upgraded molds are, it was a damn shame to see how poorly articulated the waist is on both and how easily the legs pop off.

I'm actually inclined to say I'd much prefer the XMO ball joint for the waist with the latest MU thigh swivels, double jointed knees and ankle rockers to sport the best all around waist down articulation.
