Hadn't looked that closely at the necks, but it sure looks like they messed up again on sculpting and tried to correct it without even smoothing it out.

It's not just the paint apps though that leaves a lot to be desired.
The plastic used looks like it has other materials in it or wasn't mixed until blended. She has odd little spots that are IN the vinyl all over that make her look like she is dirty. It is wonky, rough sculpt that looks nothing like Eartha Kitt. No chin. Crooked jaw line. Head doesn't sit on the neck post properly and the back of her head/neck is a wreck. AND they put her AFRICAN AMERICAN head on a Caucasian body!
On the plus side, I do think they did a decent job with the hair design/execution. Her "do" is complicated and they did an admirable job trying to duplicate that. It should have been darker but it appears they "lightened" everything about her.
Next up are the Goons...I have low expectations as we suspect FTC just using their current head inventory for them. Gonna be picky for sure with them.Comment

Yeah, kind of curious about them, too. I could just imagine Joker's gang consisting of Gilligan, Davy Jones and Bo Duke.You must try to generate happiness within yourself. If you aren't happy in one place, chances are you won't be happy anyplace. -Ernie BanksComment

While that would be sorta funny,but also cheap on FTC's part....for $30 each (and you know these are going to be over $100 for these 4-pack sets) we should be at least getting new head sculpts of some kind, which could be spread out among all the sets....also putting female goons in the sets is inaccurate and a big wasteComment

well, Batman won't hit a woman, so of course they don't fight. The FTC description didn't refer to the females as goons anyways, molls.Last edited by thunderbolt; Jan 4, '18, 1:59 PM.You must try to generate happiness within yourself.

Instead of molls I'd rather see more male henchmen as the bodies of the women are a hot mess. For Riddler I'm hoping for the 3 rat henchmen in colorful hoodies, as they are the only ones that make sense if the 4th figure is a female (Across and Down henchmen that belonged to John's Riddler wouldn't work because there is only 2 figures, same with the Riddler henchmen in the Wax episodes with the stripes on their shirts)
For Joker my dream would be 3 different color sweater henchmen and the alien guy from the space episode, but that won't work either if they insist on each 4 pack including a female.
My problem with the molls is I think they are just gonna make a dumb female wearing a "goon" dress or a female in a cat print dress, instead of real molls used on the series. I'd be all in for Suzie Cheerleader, Pussycat, Molly etc, but I bet that is not what we will get.Comment
