Mattel DID design a new suit body and first used it with the Question and ever since, aside from the Two-Face repaint. The early suit body had the weird split molded tie that only worked well with Two-Face; The newer suit body doesn't have a molded tie, different arms, a different crotch piece, different legs, but it does use the same shoes/feet as the Clark and Two-Face. If we count the John Constantine body as a suit body (used only once and he's only wearing a tie and jacket), that's a brand new torso to duplicate a wrinkled shirt, but it uses the same arms, crotch, legs, and pants as Question, Sandman, Black Mask, Phantom Stranger, and Ra's.

Dang, I guess what we should've really been asking for was a bulkier suited body.

i was super happy about Ras until i saw the photos from sdcc. i really feel like they phoned it in on the head sculpt and figure in general. infact it really doesn't look like horseman work at all?

such a shame. he is at best disappointing. like you all im hoping for a better figure in hand.

it's not a great photo at the beginning of this thread, but I was pretty close to the screen at Mattypalooza and the Ra's proto does look tons better than the production figure Mattel design made from it. Again, it's hard to tell from that photo, but it even has grey in the hair.

Darn, that’s happened on a few occasions now.

Man, I know I said this already, but that Ra's scimitar is comically huge.

His scimitar is a distraction from the lousy head sculpt and effort put into such a pivotal character...feel they let us down on this one but I guess we will know for sure next week....

Ironically the sheer suckiness of this figure is convincing me to get two of them. One to leave untouched up and one to customize into what I thought it should've been.

I'll admit it. I bought one.

Yep me too and Acid, that's a good idea for a before and after example..please share pics when it's completed
