Including extra heads as accessories for action figures.
I was elated to discover the COBRA Island BAT comes with a non-damaged head and chest plate. Didn't know that. Wasn't expecting that. Now I can put the undamaged heads on something else for more BATs! |

I'm fond of their practice of making damn near every one of my favorite lines in my whole life!
Yeah, the extra parts are cool. A few years back you'd only find this sort of thing in Japanese or specialty market toys. Even the level of articulation in modern joes was nowhere to be found at retail! 12" Joes in the 90s weren't this poseable. I also think the webgear is a clever way to add realism and get more use out of sculpts in this era of mold conservation. |

I like the extra heads, but I also try to keep all original accessories with the corresponding figure. So for me the heads are better used atop a pike.

There;s a chest plate in there? Hmm, I didn't see one. I'll have to look again.

Hasbro is usually good qualti toys comparatively. I think thats why so much Trek and Terminator stuff sits on the shelf. The toys are garbage.

Yeah, extra heads and accessories is cool. I wish there was more extra webgear, never enough of that to go around.

Particularly I find extra robot heads great. More than any other extra the bat head can make for some really sleek customs.
I'd like to try some Team GIjoe Bionic Doppelgangers.
