You're right!
As a kid, I wished all my figures had swiveling arms.
Now as an adult with a career, a wife and responsibilities, I realize how wrong I was and that if a figure sports a swiveling joint, it should be located at the knee, not the elbow... :roll:

Well, as a adult I think it's fair to say I've come to value swivel knees more than I ever thought I would. But not so much on action figures.

I do have to give it to Mattel though in that they're adding articulation in an area where the leading competitor is cutting back. Wish they'd add a hind arm swivel and ankle articulation, but maybe they'll get there eventually.

Did anyone else's Target raise the price on these figs to 14.29?

Not that far. Ours did this weird thing where they raised them to $13 a few weeks ago, then just this week clearanced them all for like $8.20 (...they had been $7 before the idiotic increase). Now they don't even have a peg for them.

Still $12.99 at the two Targets I stopped at. It doesn't seem as if anyone is buying any of the lines marked that price and that makes me feel good.

Yeah, no one is buying any of the $13 figures (SW, DC, Marvel...though that last one could be because they keep putting out case after case of that first wave with Grim Reaper). Still bet it's going to be awhile before they catch on...and lower it to $12.

So, even tho this is listed with the Multiverse line, this is actually 6" scale, right? Because 6" scale is the best scale for affordable and manage a boys I see playsets and vehicles, right?

I'm glad that the canceled items from the Classic line are coming in 2015.
I'll probably get the Batmobile with the two figures instead of hunting them separately.

Walgreens has them on sale for 25% off

A local TRU has them at regular 6.99 right now AND on sale for 4.99. I picked up Black Mask and Hush. (REALLY like Black Mask except his neck is stubby) then I went to Walgreens and found Harley Quinn.

I swear mine restocked with a case of Zod. I haven't seen those at TRU at all.
