But what about the days of individual fingers from ToyBiz's Marvel Legends? I know of some that STILL view Hasbro's articulation inferior to that

My point still remains: Mattel is probably not including those particular POA to keep their cost down/profit per item up.

They're doing a good job with their movie line? They are shipping 5-6 Batmans in a case while the other TITLE character is 0-1 per case. For a Superman sequel, Mattel sure as hell ain't treating it like one.

I never said it was a "good job", but it is a significant IMPROVEMENT over how they've traditionally handled such lines in the past.

But again, any improvement they make is usually mitigated by some other bonehead action (like the excessive packing of Batman in current cases, and lack of villains, IMO)
