Hasbros box says 2 figures, 7 accessories. The robot owl looks to be a backpack and has shoulder/wing articulation and maybe a balljoint for the head. That's not a second figure. Seems pretty deceptive to describe it like that honestly.

EDIT: Checked again, looks like maybe the owl on the wrench, called a pickaxe in game, has shoulder articulation. My daughter said the owl becomes a rideable glider.

I'll repeat what I said when Hasbro announced the license. I don't think they'll offer the value that Jazwares does. Jazwares had 6 or 7 accessories with every figure and unique sculpts all the time. I get it. Hasbro wanna stretch every bit of profit out of this line. It makes me wonder what they paid for this license to be so stingy compared to Jazwares offerings.

I'm not interested in this line except for my absolute favorite skins and thats basically because Jazwares won't be able to get to them. Hasbro has shown some cool figures Jazwares didn't do yet and even interesting things like the shark and accessories but it's hard to get excited seeing their pricing.

Only time will tell if this becomes like the Overwatch line. If so, I'll pick some up once they hit $5 clearance like all those figures did lol.

Well this is what’s frustrating with hasbro now. They had a fantastic 4” marvel universe line but cut quality to 5 PoA and said the price point was too sensitive due to the licensing cost.
Now they pick up the fortnite line, more than DOUBLE the price compared to jazwares and can claim it’s due to the licensing. Hopefully this is not a normal thing and hasbro can keep the prices down. The owl back bling looks slick on Dr. Doom
