I'm glad I held off on picking up some of the big names from this line. You know this means they'll re-release Supes and Bats with the better articulation and hoepfully (keeps fingers crossed) non-pea sized heads.

Yes, i totally agree, i just hope they give the females this "added" articulation as well.

A1)Luthor actually just missed the new articulation cut off, but it will follow very shortly after him. The new articulation will include ball joints at the elbows and knees as well as wrist, neck and ankle articulation

...I don't see "hip" in there. I am just going to assume they take it as a given to add ball-joint or extra articulation in that area and drop the t-crotch.

I hope this is the case as well as dont see the point in changing the knee articulation (or adding in some cases ?) if the waist still sports swivel joints only.

No ball jointed waist has been mentioned many times across the net as a complaint. I dont see how they could ignore that modification.

I don't some Star War figures have extra articulation in the knees and ankles and still manage to be t-crotch (ROTS Aayla Secura and Padme come to mind.)

I'm realy excited for the Joker fig.. basically so I can customize a Jarvis figure.

Most of the Star Wars figures use a ball-jointed knee style like the Sigma 6 figures and 25th Joe elbows.

I haven't bought any more since the ones I got in early January. I would love to pick up a Green Lantern, but he's only in the multipacks now, and I don't want the other figures in the packs. I look forward to seeing what they'll do with the articulation. I hope they make them like mini versions of the DCUC figures, as I really like that style of articulation more than ML, SHS, 25th Joes, etc.

So the lower body is now articulated?

I'm hoping for a re-articulated Batman.

I'm not sure if the details on the articulation have been revealed yet, but I think there's supposed to be a discussion about this weekend at the show. They really do just need to shrink the DCUC down though IMO.

"They really do just need to shrink the DCUC down though IMO."

100% what they should do. Companies should take a lesson from Jakks with the WWE figures.

Thanks for the info, btw. :-D

This is annoying, they're not adding the ability to kick to the side. If they used the same kind of technique as the 3 3/4" Dragonball figures(the Black Canary figure seems to be kind of similar) you wouldn't have to worry about ball joints.
