I'm personally hoping that some of that detail just didn't fit into Mattel's budget for the $10 figures and that the Multiverse version has some more added in for Aquaman. Hard to say that will be true, though, considering the $10 Batman has a grappling hook and the $20 one doesn't have anything for his obvious weapon hand. Arthur might just have to hope on MAFEX to get his due.

Didn't see Wonder Woman today, but saw a few Superman and a ton of the two Batmen figures for Multiverse. They're not bad figures, actually fun to mess around with, but definitely a shame they come with so little extras for $20.
