I already had the Asylum two pack Bane and am still generally quite happy with it, I just also really wanted to have a Bane that more resembled his typical appearance. The origins Bane is one of his few portrayals that I can say hits the spot with almost no notable screw-ups, most things seem to love making him stupid and/or rather unskilled. The toy looks great on paint and sculpt and though articulation is notably lacking he can still strike some menacing poses. Joker is nice, not great but good. He has a good sculpt with very well applied paint and enough articulation for my needs though ball-hinged shoulders would've been better. My only big problem with the figure is the lack of accessories, even a paring knife could've been an improvement over nothing. Despite being lower on the articulation end of things these two do look great and I'm glad to add them to my Arkham collection.


Then tonight at my local Wal-Mart they had the new Ant-Man Legends wave, strangely the only figure they had left was Wasp. It was an end-aisle display for the movie and all that was there were four Wasp figures, which is good for me since it's the only one I really wanted but also surprising that every other figure sold but Wasp. I'm not complaining since she's the one I wanted most but it is weird especially since the 3.75" Wasp from Marvel Infinite was in very high demand here. Overall it's great and has display options for the wings which is a nice touch and the paint wasn't bad on any of them that I saw.

I saw the exact same thing in 2 targets and a Walmart. I think she may have shipped alone; kinda like Wario shipped alone for the new Nintendo line.
