Wish the Batman had blue highlights painted on the cape, cowl, gloves and boots like the Batgirl figure has on her cowl.

Wow, that's disappointing to hear
I've drastically cut back on my DC purchases, and I currently only have maybe 3 DCC figures, but of those, one of them (Suicide Squad Harley Quinn) came with a broken elbow.

I rarely ever had this sort of problem with my DC Direct figures. I have roughly 80 DC Direct figures that I've picked up over the past decade, and I previously had many many more before up until a year or so ago when I decided to sell or trade the unnecessary ones in my collection (still WAAAAY too many for such a casual DC fan, lol). But anyways, frankly, I can think of only four that had issues with breakage.
Also, of those four figures, three of them broke roughly seven or eight years after I purchased them, so the breakage was a little easier to accept.

What the heck is going on with DCC ?!?
DC Direct figures were notoriously fragile, because of their clear plastic, but at least their breakage (in my experience) was a gradual, long-term issue.
