[Poison Shadow]

Man, how cool are these guys?



They aren't perfect, but I like 'em. Deathstroke's head and arm movement is severely hindered by the shoulder pads, bandolier and pouches on his body... and they slap such huge (and visible) globs of paint on the joints that his left ankle refuses to move. You can still get him into some cool poses, though - and I swiped Excalibur from Captain Britain because he can't hold his gun properly. I was always going to pose him with a sword, though, so I don't mind much.

Green arrow on the other hand is great all around. He looks good in person - although his costume still looks odd because of how much skin is showing. Since playing the game I see now that some of those places should have been painted yellow, particularly the spaces on his chest between the laces... but seriously, it looks much better in person than it does blown up in pictures. And his bow has a real elastic string!

My only complaints about him: his fingers on his left hand aren't quite hooked enough to hold the string back - it keeps slipping. And they couldn't give him one arrow to hold with his bow? That's messed up considering the prices attached to these things.

All in all I'm still undecided about whether or not I'll buy all of these packs for be pretty selective. My gut tells me that the reason they produced figures of the more unique costumes for characters like Wonder Woman and Grundy instead of their more comic-inspired costumes from the same game is because they plan on doing a separate comic line at some point. So... that's where I'm at so far.
