Omega pretty much nailed it, but Op Vader and others are also correct.

And McFarlane has never been in the top tier when it came to articulation, even in the 90's. What they did do was revolutionize the accuracy of toy likenesses and pushed the industry to higher quality sculpting. McFarlane Toys is part of the reason why Star Wars (or other movie toys) look as close to the actors/masks as they do now.

Like Optimus Vader said, the joints on a McFarlane toy are there, but practically useless except for a single pose or two. And they're fine for what they are, especially if you like the IP that the toy is based on.

I just wish McFarlane would stop trying to be so perfect with the sculpt sometimes and understand that you can have a great sculpt AND good articulation in the same figure. Just look at Hasbro's 6" Iron Man Mark IV.
