The thing is, mattel is working backwards, not forwards.
DCIH increased in articulation before the end. It ends, and everything after in that scale declines in articulation massively.


Mattel won't get better at this scale anytime soon. These cost cutting methods are how they balance stuff like the cloth capes, detailing, and full unique molds and accessories while keeping the cost low at retail.

So I honestly doubt we'll see the return or start of anything near hasbro articulation from mattel anytime soon in the 3.75-4'' range.
