The only articulation in the 3 3/4 figs is in the shoulders, waist, hips and possibly the head (can't tell very well). I mean, no elbow or knee joints, come on. The only GL figures to have the best articulation are the 9 inch (?) figures. Please everyone, don't rush out and spend $8.00 or more for a figure that can be a lot better. Thanks for your time.

The wide assortment of alien GL's really "looks" cool, but appearances are definitely deceptive. It is really a shame that Mattel did such a crappy job on these figures. Nearly every other 3 3/4" figure out there has much better articulation. Hasbro has set the standard and Mattel dropped the ball on this one.

I guess it's a good thing for me personally. I won't have to worry about splitting my toy budget between GI Joe and anybody else.
