I think the sculpting is top-notch, and though there are some unfortunate articulation cuts, I don't believe that detracts from how great these figures look-- And I haven't even altered any of mine! ...Except to put a comic pack head on Duke, but that's only because I love that the comic pack head was based on the cartoon character design. I really have nothing against the head it came with.

I'm very pleased to have all my 25th figures standing on the filing cabinet next to my desk. I'm also willing to respect the opinions of those who don't like them, but what bothers me is when such persons (and I don't mean only you, Urban Saboteur, because certain others do it too) state as absolute fact that these are "trash" or "crap" or whatever. I think they're great, but I always make certain to use those words-- "I think" or "in my opinion", rather than just outright saying "they're the greatest figures ever" without leaving room for friendly disagreements.

Anyway, that's my two cents.
