Wow McFarlane, thanks for providing 30 individual production photos of a figure with apparently two POA (shoulders?), all in the same exact pose.

Same in my area...they're peg warming like mad. No shits are given about this line.

McFarlane just can't get it right when it comes to articulation. The 5" figures moved decently enough but the actual articulation itself was piss-poor in terms of maintaining the integrity of the sculpt, especially with all of the ugly peg holes in the shoulders/hips/etc. Now, instead of evolving and improving like NECA has done, they're just going the statue route which so far - judging from the WD product clogging pegs at retail - looks like a massive mistake.

McFarlane really needs to look at what NECA's doing in terms of consistently providing great, mostly-hidden articulation. But perhaps McFarlane is having money problems and can't afford to do that.
