They gotta find a way to sell you more figures per each sequel. But hey, what exactly is wrong with them? Maybe some constructive criticism could help. If it's phrased nicely.

Wonder Woman's I gotta admit looks boss though. That's so a bought on sight and I don't even collect that scale.

Keep in mind also that they are trying to balance these so that kids can play with them if the movie turns out to be a big hit with little ones. Wonder Woman already has proven itself to be, so that probably explains the stronger effort on her figure.

Ab crunches aren't an absolute must for me. I'd probably be more willing to overlooked the dated articulation schemes if the figures looked better.

Another thing that I hate about Mattel's superhero figures is the generic cone-shaped cloth capes. I'd rather have the capes like NECA's Batman and Superman figures with the semi-circle shape to give them a more realistic look when they hang as opposed to being completely stiff and flat, and if you wanted to pose Batman with his cape open and hanging onto his arms or cloaked around him, you could.
