Yes, they have elbow joints under the rubber skin.

Still no sign of Karai.. I'm surprised that one person on the board said they saw her.. I have been following her on eBay and she' only been listed in the United Kingdom, Australia and oddly New Jersey. But, Australia is the only listing now. People are asking waaaaay too much for her. And if they're asking for a reasonable price the shipping from Australia pushes it out of reason. I hope she isn't the first hard figure to find in the States. Only time will tell I guess.

But, has anyone else seen or heard of these detailed repaints? Wondering if I should snatch mine up while the getting is good.

Yeah I've seen a bunch of those.. At first I thought someone had sloppily customized it then returned it to target then I realized it hadn't been opened yet.

It's nice that they've added more paint, but the eye paint just looks awful.

I would love it if they used the battle shell molds, only, I'd like them to disable the gimmick and just give them a normal shell to improve arm articulation, then paint those figures nicely. That would be ideal. I think the battle shell versions are the most accurate molds we've seen thus far, but the hinge on those shells just disrupts the natural 'arms to the side' pose.
