Why they feel they had to go down this road is beyond me, they cost enough that they must have been making a killing anyway so why short-change everyone with this new cheap design? I noticed on at least one the body doesn't sit so well on the chassis either, there is definitely a small gap, possibly I suspect due to the plastic deforming slightly and not fitting tight enough, probably caused by it being too thin.
Still I guess they are running out of ideas for new models so are probably trying to get as much profit out of these last models before they kill the range off so won't care if the collectors turn their backs...
Silly question time, you do know there is 18 in the full wave 1?
Yep only buying the new releases as he just gives away his doubles so not worth picking up the re-releases, and on top of that he's also collecting the Lego batman blind bags

Yep we've been lucky of late between official imports and fair priced sellers. Just watching my local Asda (Walmart) for new 9 and 4 packs (they've currently only got some older DC ones). Gradually getting wider distribution of 3 packs here as well.
