I will not collect these toys but for $5 I don't see much complaining. Now if they were $8-10 like SW, GI Joe etc despite the lack of articulation then I would complain.
What do you people expect from movie line toys? Haven't you learned by now? The quality gets eliminated for the quantity every single time. |

At this point, why do they even bother with the articulation it does have. Just make it one solid chunk of plastic, leave it one color, and call it done.

what the heck is happening with action figures these days, those Batman figures look like they are from 1995.

I cannot believe Mattel thinks 5 points of articulation actually sells!

They look like the kind of toys you see hanging on a peg at a gas station from the figure to the packaging

As I scrolled past these photos, I honestly, seriously expected the post to end with something along the lines of, "Ha ha, nah, just kidding, I photographed these at the dollar store".
Wow. I have zero understanding of production costs and profit margins in the toy industry, but I gotta think it'd be better to just not produce a series of toys at all rather than create a retail glut of irredeemable shit like this. |
