    Thanks for the reply! Yeah, you got a point dude! A "short" Bane will look "off" in comparison with the rest of the figures!

    Unless they increase the packaging size, I'd see them having trouble stuffing him into the packaging they have now.

    I've heard that the Bane won't be that articulated. Is this true?

    Seems to be. His arms, besides the shoulder, don't seem to be articulated. The legs below the hips don't seem to be articulated. I could be wrong about the arms, but I know I'm right about the legs.

    Dang...that's bad news with the lack of articulation on Bane. I'm not fussy on articulation but a figure should at least have "movable" limbs.

    It's DC Direct, they're a step up from getting a statue.

    That's not exactly true with most of their action figures line-up. While they may not be as articulated as the Mattel line, they have at least "basic" articulation. I used to buy alot of their action figures.

    Yeah, the Gordon from DC Direct's Hush and Killer Croc (Secret Files?) were abit too "stiff" for my liking.

    I'm looking forward to a bunch of these. Though...they might not fit my shelves. I'm full of Batman stuff.

    Granted, a huge step up from a statue, I just wish they'de pack abit more articuation, though they are nice and the bases that they come with pretty much seal the deal.

    The bases for these are rather pedestrian. That's one of my few gripes of this line.

    This. Most DC Direct lines come with some sort of unique base. These are just so plain and boring. By far the weakest part of the line.

    I get your point. Despite the articulation that the DC Direct figures have, their inability to have them in a dynamic pose is almost impossible as say Toy Biz's Marvel Legends.

    Yeah, the Marvel Legends line proved we can have full articulation with awesome detail. I think if DC Direct became as articulated as ML figs, they'de be beyond perfect, though they're still nice.
