Also, as far as the statue vs figure thing goes, isn't it also kind of a disservice to both when you're making statues with articulation seams? Most people who want to buy statues will likely not care for the fact that there are seams where they've inserted their (often pointless) articulation on this thing. Just reiterating the point that you either go full statue or full figure.

It might be, I was a kid though so I don't have much experience with early 90's-2000 spawn figures but I know they looked cool as hell with limited articulation.

It's extremely a disservice for someone to make statues with articulation, I mean Marvel Select does it but I think you can pull off a few poses but still very limited. If we are going for aesthetics, then pick the best pose and keep it static. Being a person who collects both statues and articulated figures, I wish they would stop trying to make this hybrid, it works very poorly and usually leads to QC issues. It sucks too because he had the opportunity to make a serious comeback in the market but I feel he's taken a bit of cream of what Funko is doing with the way and replicating a similar formula it through the "Color Top" Series.
