To Bringer of Death, I agree and believe me I don't want them for playing, I am a huge action figure collector, and i've been collecting McFarlane's figures over the years but I've really noticed the decrease in quality just to get more licenses, to get a broader market, they don't care anymore about materials and casting, molding and all that shit, I mean, the sculpts are OK but eventhough they are for display they still are action figures, not statues, not busts, but action figures, the Four Horsemen are former McFarlane's sculptors, they actually did the Crow which is one of my favorites, and lately they did Batman an He-man figures wich are the best because eventhough they work great as display and the materials are great, casting and atriculation, even the Palisades Muppets are BETTER action figures than McFarlane's, I mean, the Alien vs Predator boxed set from Movie Maniacs was pretty good, but the whole Alien and Predator series is really crappy, and again I believe the sculpts are OK but as action figures they suck, even as statues, they suck....Palisades or Neca stuff is better, but i'm still happy they're being produced, I just hope they're better quality than the Movie Maniacs series.... by the way I hate GI Joe....it's too lame.... Hehe so there Junior!
