Well, DC Direct does have a line that's actually called Blackest Night (I have a few pieces to stand in my DCUC GL display, like Sapphire Wonderwoman, Indigo 1, Saint Walker, Kryb, and Mongul). But some Blackest Night storyline figures have shown up across Green Lantern Classics, and DCU Classics. Black Lantern Abin Sur was one of them, and is the one I believe the previous poster is speaking about.

Mattel has a terrible track record of figures' limbs getting warped by the packaging, and while my BL Abin Sur did not get warped, he's a prime example of one that could. (My Komandi's legs are so badly warped he can't stand even with a stand. Not that I wanted him in the first place)

I honestly don't know about DC Direct toys like the Blackest Night and Brightest Day lines. If yours got warped by their packaging, then that sucks badly, and I definately feel your pain.
