I have the figure, that's how I was able to take pictures of him,... Ain't no ab/torso articulation. I wasn't just making that up.

Just know going into these that you aren't getting 30 poa and appreciate the positives, or skip the line. I can tell you that while they're down in poa from the previous movie lines, they're pretty different. Hard plastic, nice sculpts, and I mentioned this in another thread but I either saw a very nice case or they invested more into painting the figures because I saw 0 paint flaws out of about 10 figures. The joints that they do have are very strong and consistent and move/roll very freely without being loose at all. This is just me speculating but I think they reallocated funds from the poa (more pieces to make?) into the quality control area.

And these aren't GL movie figs, far from it, but they aren't top end MU figs like DD, BE, Cable, etc, either.
