They look nice, but I can't justify paying $13 for a 3.75 inch figure when the 6 inch figures are only $19. Hasbro should have left them under $10

In my area they're up to like $15. It's crazy.

I went grocery shopping at Wal-Mart and found that they had gotten in wave 3 (after wave 4 for some reason) so I grabbed a second TIE pilot. Then in the clearance aisle they had the Episode VII character mugs so I picked up the Phasma one only to find the scanner wouldn't read the barcode but the cashier was nice and just gave it to me anyway, free mug! I also got the latest issue of Star Wars which has two choices for the cover, Resistance or First Order, of course the bad guys have the better cover. It's a neat issue with basically nothing but interviews with the cast and makers of the movie but after having seen the film I decided it was worth picking up.

Hastings got this pack in!

The accessories are literally just two extra hands for either figure and a Batarang. Batman is just the same as the regular one but with a new head sculpt that sports an angrier face with the mouth slightly open. Unfortunately the teeth aren't painted so the inside of his new angry mouth is just the same color as the lips around it and the rest of the chin.

Phantasm sports an overall good level of articulation comparable to Batman's but without ankle pivots. Her cloak is all the same kind of soft plastic as Batman's cape which means that the shoulders actually can raise all the way up into a T pose without needing to adjust anything. If you can I'd recommend looking over multiple as one of the sets at my store had a slightly warped axe-blade. An overall very cool set from one of Batman's best films (including live-action) with the only sour-note being a distinct lack of accessories from a line which is known for including many neat accessories.

Oh you don't know yet? Well I'm afraid I'll just have to ruin it for you now, just so you know: spoiler alert mode

BRUCE WAYNE IS BATMAN!

It's such a (literally) small issue that I don't care. Phantasm was more important to me as far as being right and beyond not having ankle pivots she's A+.

Thank the gods I only paid $15 for this because this is not worth anything beyond that.

I bought 2 extra at 15$ last week to get extra Ultron drones, but I like how that silvermane looks. I might do that and paint the red spots silver. I am also going to have a friend paint Vision solid white. I did not care for the Phasing effect. I have no idea what to do with hulk except try to make a beard for him and a mohawk.

I demoted Hulk to the bottom level of all my displays. As a toy he's decently fun to just mess with and find new poses but there's a reason I considered him the free figure when I got the set for $30. His chest doesn't look like it belongs with the rest of his body, the hair doesn't work for me, and his pants are lazily painted brown but it's obvious those are his AoU movie pants. Ultron was the $20 figure I would've gotten individually, Vision was the $10 cheap figure (that looks great under a black light!), and Hulk was the free thing I could've done without.

Bad lighting and the glare on her face mostly. TR-8R fell over right before I took the photo which I thought was funnier than it probably was.
