Received the second Supreme Squadron set today. I still can only see Yellowjacket in Blur. And how the hell is Nighthawk supposed to hold those batarangs?? Fists and open splayed hands are all he comes with, so those three batarangs are useless.

Clearly there’s a way to balance the weapons in his hands, or in between his fingers, but there’s not really any strong grip to it, and they could fall out with a calm breeze. I don’t get why they didn’t include grip hands if they were going to give him those batarangs. (And I know the term “batarang” is a Batman thing, I just don’t have anything else to call them and they are clearly based on Batman’s weapons)

Found Super Adaptoid on eBay at a good price and received him today. Anyone have a tip on how to get the shield strap over the fin on his glove? I'm out of ideas.

Near as I can tell you can't.  Best I could do was put the fist through the smaller strap and rest the edge of the larger strap on the glove fin.

My Squadron set is still in my BBTS Pile of Loot, but these pics look good.  Def psyched to get Power Princess now.

I got a needed-but-not-for-$50 Doom/Photon set and a why-not Ben Reilly Spidey from the Great Target Avengers Liquidation Event of '23!

Thanks, Chooch. Thought I was just being thick-headed and couldn't see the obvious solution. Appreciate it.

I pulled the entire glove off. I pulled the fist off the glove. I slid the glove cuff between the straps. Then plugged the glove cuff back into the arm. Then plugged the fist into the glove. That shield will go no where and looks correct on the arm. Just thoughtless design.

Thanks, Norm! I tried pulling the glove off but didn't force it because I wasn't sure if it was removable. I'll give it another go now.

I did this as well. Looks good when it’s done, but unfortunate that it has to be done this way.
