Well, the dude with the star on his chest typifies the worst thing about these figures, and that's that they don't stand up. Or if they do you have to lean their torsos waaaaay back so they're doing the Pelvic Thrust.

As much as I did Doom Patrol, I feel I might -- MIGHT -- have the will power to resist (as if I'll ever find them anyway). Robot Man's shoulders are kind of ridiculous, but Negative Man is pretty dang good and freakin' Mento is a riot! Goofy antenna helmet and big lightning bolt? I'm hooked.

"Well, the dude with the star on his chest typifies the worst thing about these figures, and that's that they don't stand up." I know, what the fuck?! After all these years of making these figures why hasn't this issue been fixed? Why would they continue to be designed so that they can't stand up? I just can't understand the reasoning. How did this series ever make it past the prototype stage? Wouldn't the people in the board room be like, "Uh, yeah, they look cool but you need to go back to the drawing board and redesign the feet so they can stand up!"
