  • NECA surprised everyone when they announced these new Dark Horse DC figures and for the most part, they delivered quality products. Will the issues with the figures keep people from buying them despite the incredible hype, though?

    Lmao the figure breaks and he continues with the leg articulation. Thanks Anthony. Things like this is why I and many other people go to you and not anybody else. You're not afraid to really push a figure to its limits. Sorry about the Batman. I had a similar experience recently.

    Personally I only got this for the Joker Xeno. And my Batmans leg came off immediately after packaging the same way. Popped it back in and it was fine, the Xeno however, that was another story because its leg was permanently stuck in place, I literally tried every method to fix it, and eventually had to go in with a tool to manipulate it so it could move freely. With thoss problems resolved, I'm happy with the purchase, but I can definitely see why these would be a disappointment for others.

    Yeah it must be all of their figures. The God Of War 4 Kratos was the exact same way. The same splitting leg thing happened to my friend but we couldn’t get them back together and in. He didn’t even move it drastically. He ended up having to just get a new one. But I have noticed this on some of their ultimate horror figures as well with the weird crooked legs. Thankfully non of those have come out though. At least not yet.

    When I got mine it has been full of problems THE LEG didn’t come apart But INSTEAD THE ARM CAME OFF I panicked 😱 because I’ve never broken any of my neca figures except a predator foot that had clear joints as everyone knows aren’t a great idea to use for the joints on any figure as I don’t play around with them I display them in a display case but with neca only had that issue with a predator foot I was gutted that the arm popped of it wasn’t snapped it just popped off so I put it back but we as customers shouldn’t have to treat or figures like they are made out of tissue it definitely feels like they got a version of Batman &predator and the other characters done and they REALLY CHEAPED OUT WITH THIS ONE I absolutely love the look of the Batman figure and the alien is good and I know it’s not an up to date figure but it’s not so old I’ve got loads of neca figures some really old and from the same time as this to brand new designs but I just think they released they were going to bring out theses figures and they realised they didn’t have time and financially it seems they CHEAPED out feels bad because I’ve always got A+ with my neca figures and this as good as Batman Looks it’s just below there standard

Can't go wrong with Marvel legends figures $20-25 .

      let's not stand on ceremony here qc has always been kind of hit or miss with Neca. Have to really heat up the joints before moving them for the first time. I ordered two of each one of these sets and honestly didn’t have any of the same qc issues presented here. The hips being slightly off center I guess is present. But for me isn’t noticeable when posed. At the end of the day they’re $30 figures, which isn’t bad considering the paint work and accessories you get (this set is the exception accessories wise). Just wish you didn’t have to handle them with kid gloves

      let's not stand on ceremony here pretty much fit right in to what you see here. Fantastic looking sculpts “usually” with the best paint applications you can find on a $22-$28 figure. Articulation is better than average (especially for their size and heft and it’s gotten better in recent years) and they usually come with a ton of accessories (especially on ultimates). Downside however has always been QC. More often than not it’s frozen joints that are stuck from paint, and you have to heat them up like crazy to get them to move the first time without breaking anything. But overall one of my favorite lines
