Yeah ive head alot of talk about BAF's but what exactly are they and how does it work, i heard some things about how you can switch body parts on figures or something but im still not 100% about what it is, all i know is that the new WM 27 triple h is apart of this, thanks

Each figure in the series comes with parts of another figure that when snapped together make a new Bonus figure. They've done it with the DCUC and Marvel has done it with ML. Here's a few DCUC ones -  {need to finish this one yet)    |

Yeah it's split into the torso, arms, head, and legs I believe and they come in the BOPPV series with Hart, Cena, HHH, and Bryan and you assemble it to get Michael Cole.

So basically they are giving you an extra figure for buying the whole wave. With DC one figure comes with a head & crotch piece. One figure comes with the left arm One figure comes with the right arm One figure comes with the torso One figure comes with the left leg One figure comes with the right leg With the WWE seeing there's only 4 figures in the set I'd say HHH comes with Cole's arms Someone else comes with Cole's legs Someone else Cole's torso and the last with Cole's head and crotch piece. |

PJ, nice DC collection. I have the Chemo (Giant bubbly robot). It is one of my favorite toys. He is so big and cool!
Yeah, Mattel's BAF are sometimes hit and miss though. The Metamorpho (from the DC Classics line) was okay but his limbs fell off if moved. I worry a little as Cole would be about the same size as that figure. The larger figures USUALLY stayed together. The Brimstone character did not, though. His arms fell out of the sockets if they were moved. It would really suck if Michael Cole suffered from a similar fate.

Do they stay together pretty well or will I have to worry about Michael Cole's pieces falling out on their own?

No once they are locked into the sockets they stay. The only one I had a problem with was the DCUC Series 1 Rex Mason his left hip didn't lock into place. But other than that all the other BAF's worked fine. PJ, nice DC collection. I have the Chemo (Giant bubbly robot). It is one of my favorite toys. He is so big and cool!

I think my favorite DCUC BAF is the Bane followed closely by both Solomon Grundy & Kilowag. Darkseid was very nice as well. Other than the DCUC 1 Rex Mason I've not and any BAF fall apart after I built them. |

I also had problems with Metamorpho. One of his legs would always pop off.
I would suggest keeping your receipts until you have a complete Cole. I had to return 2 figures because the pieces had a QC problem. But other than that they have been mostly great.

I think Metamorpho had a problem staying together because it was the first B.A.F they made, I don't think it had anything to do with the size. Alot of the Marvel Legends B.A.Fs, from the Hasbro waves were about the Same size as Metamorpho,and I've had no problems with them falling apart.

Please forgive my ignorance, but does this mean Mattel is doing a WWE B.A.F.? That would be awesome!!!!!
