But so far, no one with special sculpts (Like a business suit, like Sandman), or with big muscular biceps (Like almost everyone else) gets the enhanced joints.
Ahso. Thanks for droppin' the knowledge. I just so happen not to own any of these particular figs. So, "double" jointed would mean that the elbows and knees extend through the full 180-degree range of motion without locking at the straightened arm or leg position? If so, why is this useful? Fighting poses to depict villains getting their arms/legs broken?
Not trying to be an ass, honestly... just trying to understand.
Thanks!
