Amazon needs to do a better job policing their website of fake Chinese junk. When searching under the Action Figure category using the sort by “Featured” , your #1 response is an obvious fake knock off set. It has Batman, Superman, Thor, Hulk, Captain America and Iron Man in it. No toy company has the licenses to both Marvel and DC to make figures together. Looking at the reviews you can see some real issues, figures with 3 arms and 1 leg, broken or missing limbs, poor quality. How does this become the #1 featured item in a large category?
Amazon has become AliBaba East.
Disgusting.
Please STOP the madness!
