They are the same as the older ones, but it does differ slightly.
The monsters have. Ball jointed head, the humans all have normal neck swivel (bar Gwen, she has no head articulation)
All have shoulder, elbow and wrist articulation. (weevil has ball jointed shoulders and swivel bend elbow)
All have waist twist
All have hip/thigh bend (Legs can bend forwards, but not back)
All have knee articulation. (weevil has a swivel bend joint)


Not 100% sure on wave 2:)

Wave 2's probably just the same. :P

Yeah, I think Tosh has neck articulation, Ianto is the same as Jack I think. But I believe Cpt John has the same arctic as the Weevil. Or at least has ball-joints in shoulder.

Not quite the same - take Tosh for example, she's the closest to a Who figure I think - there's articulation in the neck, shoulder (normal, not ball joint), elbow, hip, crotch (but not able to "do the splits") and knees. No thigh or bicep swivels.

I have gwen, I'd be very keen to get the rest of the team, if they'd only released an owen to go with them... The figures are very good, though.

Owen is needed desperately. :( Shame they never made him. :(

I still need to get Tosh and Ianto, then I have the team (minus Owen, of course).

I have Jack (Light Blue), Ianto, Gwen and a Weevil. Articulation isn't great on the three heroes but the Weevil's is very nice.
