    The wings have a wire in them which helps them hold different poses.

    The suit itself is heavier than most---the wings are made of a sort of velour material (for lack of a better word) which I think is meant to simulate leather.

    I think the musculature is drawn on because the nature of suit and wing connections make it difficult to get a tight fit across his chest. I do wish it had been drawn in a more subtle way, though.

    I'll put some more pics up a bit later today.

      Here's a pic that shows off his wingspan. The wires in the wings and the sturdiness of the material allow the wings to be fully extended.

      I do wish he had come with two open hands rather than one fist as I prefer the open look for this character.

      I think the werewolf feet would look really great on him. If the screaming werewolf ever shows up in enough numbers I may attempt an upgrade.

        If you have a Falcon or Neptunian, could you do a comparison?

              Hedrap, I'm sorry but I don't have a Falcon or Neptunian handy for a comparison.

                  I love these pics! I'm getting all four of these figures from that series for Christmas. They just look like so much fun and the presentation is a blast. I appreciate you sharing these shots. It has me really excited for Christmas now.

                    Much what I was thinking.

                    BTW, the teen robin looks great.

                      Thanks! BTW that Robin is a combo of the Super Friends Robin body & suit with the head from the Teen Titans Robin, or in other words essentially the same thing as the new Robin they've just released

                          Had they gone the Brock Samson route with skinny legs on the big torso it might have worked better.

                            He looks much better out of the package than I thought he did in the package. Looks like a really cool, fun figure!

                              I look forward to seeing peoples' modifications on this figure, because I think the head sculpt is terrific.

                                got mine today but I kitbashed him pretty quickly on a regular body,flesh bodysuit,brown pants and labcoat/shirt just got to work on wings somehow.his head popped off easily from the hulk body and easily popped on the regular body.somewhat hoping they will do a variant with him in grey like the bronze age look.
