Does your bicep spin in the middle of your elbow and your shoulder? No, but my bicep does shift when I move my forearm and thats what bicep swivel mimicks. If you dont agree I would go to the doctor. The bicep moves when one of the joints it’s attached at moves

I actually like the brief case better then plastic belt or tiny slammy, the other wal mart had every chase MITB but none with Perkins. It adds a nice touch. Iv also seen tons of battelpack 49, probably gonna get bryant and miz because i dig it

look at Hulk Hogan's clearly defined 24 inch pythons you can they're moved at the bicep, especially at the right bicep from Hulk's perspective.

Your biceps do not move.I don’t know why you have to be told this in every thread that this comes up in. and yet, you have not disproven it by posting photo comparisons between the old and new basics. Hogan's right bicep is shown clear as day to be moving it's fine if you want to pay $10 for a basic, you do you, but ignoring the glaring flaws that many posters has pointed out is another thing

His bicep does not move, his whole arm moves due to the should moving the arm. Again, your bicep does not rotate on its own.

Again, your bicep does not rotate on its own. funny how it wasn't a problem 5 years ago; but all of a sudden it's completely unrealistic especially when JAKKs cheaped out, it never got to the point where cutting articulation was on the chopping block, the last figures that JAKKs made shows this quite clearly and the reason i'm bringing JAKKs up is because their notorious reputation for cheapening out, when a toy company that is known for cheapening out doesn't remove bicep and ankle joints, when they have all the time they could, and Mattel does is completely jarring to anyone who has collected during the beginning.

I know that it sucks how it seems things are changing. The ankle one is nuisance. But bill mention they’ve been wanting to do the to basicas for awhile. He said he was finding ways around it and this was probably the only option. If jakks still had the contract, they would have done the same or worse. Look at the figures the recently released outside of the us, complete garbage.

You mean S.H. Figuarts? Just because they look different and tinier, doesn't make them "garbage" inherently, so that comment wasn't really warranted, but ever since this new design choice, I can now potentially get into new toylines cause I wouldn't be nearly spending as much on Basics (as if I was buying lots of them to begin with) like Storm Collectibles or S.H. Figuarts of the sort.

The tna line is done as well (if I remember correctly) Times change. Inflation happens and $10 is not what it was worth 10 years ago. If they have to implement changes to keep the price point, then it’s just what we have to deal with. This isn’t mattel being lazy or cheap, just how businesses work

They won’t miss your $10 because Mattel makes their sales when the retailers order from them. So as long as TRU, Target, WalMart, etc order their products they are fine. And if a line dies they will just make something else that retailers will order.

Different strokes for different folks

Different strokes for different folks Basics were trash to begin with so them going down in quality only makes them less appealing. I flat out refused to buy basics before and it's not changing anytime soon.
