I thought I would share something that no one else has mentioned about the BH/FF sculpt. If you look at the BH crotch it is very much like the rest of the 25th figs, however, FF has a different crotch that allows for much greater range of movement for sitting. It's hard to notice until you look very close, but they are different, and do allow more movement, but not as much as RAH figures.
I assume that the difference in the BG/FF sculpt is the same difference we'll see when the 5 packs are released later this year. After looking at some pictures in the pictures section, some of the FF's have the same crotch as my BH, and some have the more RAH/modified style. I you have 2 check to see if they are the same or different so we can see side by side pictures of both pieces. I got mine with a green stalker, so I assume mine is a later modified version.

Actually, what happened was Hasbro adjusted some of the internals of the figures. The sculpt itself is unchanged, the hips just sit "lower" in body than they did before.
But in my experience, this is a stop gap quickie fix and even with the increased range, they still don't sit all that well, in comparison to RAH and JvC figures.

The sculpt is different on my 2 figures. It might be hard to see in the pictures, but in your hand it's easy to see the difference in the 2 different crotches.
