Beast Kingdom DC Figures

I wish I had found this forum/thread. Out of blasted curiosity I bought a Beast Kingdom Bale Batman and it kind of is both cool and sucks at the same time.
Cool = the plastic in hand feels premium and solid, the likeness and paint are great; wired cloth cape is nice; while scale IS weird, for me its pleasantly weird
Not cool = Literally no other brand of figures I've ever bought had joints this loose. The right hand is forever limp with any hand I stick there (will shove some putty or something in the hole later to fix it), hard to pose because hip joints are loosy goosy, hard to pose because the range of motion isnt great either; the bat-belt is oddly bulky and his over all body is weirdly skinny like a plank. This is how it was right out of the sealed box.
The best I can do with posing is making the cape flow over him to hide his weird body and limp wrist and fanny pack.

Despite that, I am going to get Hal and Flash just because I havent seen any GL/Flash from McF that I like (even the ones that are up for preorder soon, I dont like the designs). But outside of that, unless they make a really great and awesome Wonder Woman, I doubt I'd buy any more Beast Kingdom anything.

Yeah, that sounds about right with the latest BK releases. Sorry to hear your Bale isn't very good (mine wasn't either).

I'm definitely curious to hear how it goes with Hal and Barry, though. I'm not buying the newer releases because of the issues I've had, but I really really hope they get better. I'd love to be able to go back to them.

Also, welcome! This place is awesome, great people here. Ask around about the initiation protocols.
