You can slide them up & down on the figure to get them postioned where you want, but, it's like they're taylor made to the figure & are Snug & Tight so that they don't come off & get lost. Some people may not like this, but, I actually prefer it. It sucked everytime you played with a Jakks figure & the pads came off or you had to readjust them. |

I still prefer Mattel over Jakks now to be honest. I usually hate change in things & as I've said before, when I heard Jakks was losing the license & Mattel was getting it, I wasn't happy. However, I'm loving the change & glad Mattel were the ones to get the license. I think Mattel's Series 1 Batista rminds me of isit RA 37 or 38 with Jakks Batista in Red with the Yellow Batista lettering on the front, I liked that one of Jakks, but think Mattel have made it better. Only thing Iliked about Jakks over this one thugh is the bigger Head. Mattel's Batista Head is quite small, but other than that, a Great fig all round. |

My only beef with Mattel seems to be the lack of emotions in the face. A angry scan would have done wonders for Batista. Bourne should have had a smirk or smile. The Triple H is just great all around!

I originally thought Batista in this set looked a bit crap when I saw the proto, but the finished product has changed my mind. I love the detail on it. The only bit I don't like is his legs look weird at the thighs, kinda like he has too much muscle.

Back tat looks abit bright but then again jakks has there's faded so wont know what i'll like better until have in my hands.. But besides that figure looks really nice.
Some reason i was never keen on the ripped torso on batista always prefered the heavyweight, this looks to be more like the heavyweight from jakks so good for me.

Wow a full colour back tat, very impressive. How is it that the pads dont move yet dont restrict playability?

The playability still works great with the Pads, but, say if you were to try & take them off, it's not gonna happen because of the Tension & you'd more than likely split the rubber trying to force them off / over the figure. |

So is the plastic hard or soft or what? Im guessing its soft to allow it to bend. Sounds cool that it does what it does, i didnt think i was even possible.  |

The plastic is quite Hard & Sterdy, yet the figures are actually quite light & there isn't any weight to them at all. |
