And why give them grabbie hands if there's nothing to grab onto? Mattel seriously just doesn't have a clue what they're doing in 18th scale. *Every* figure they've ever done in the scale has been several years behind the state-of-the-art when they came out.

The Captain Power figs were atrociously sculpted in comparison to similar-year Joes. The Secret Wars figs were miles behind the Joes in articulation; and now these DCIH figs are behind the frickin' Secret Wars figs in proportion and dynamic styling.

I would kill to have been a fly on the wall when the pitch proposal was given for this line. What did they guy tell the VP that approved it, and what was going on in that VP's mind when he did? I can't imagine how *anyone* would look at the other 18th lines on the market and think these figs would be a runaway success.
