DC Unlimited, successor to DC Universe?
 
I'm not a DC regular, but some of the 6" Unlimited figures look pretty good. My question to you DC guys is, are DC Unlimited figures the successor to DC Universe figures? They seem to have the same style of articulation. So are they the same line, just rebranded Unlimited?

I didn't really jump into the 6" DC line till the DC Unlimited line launched with their New 52 heroes. But from my observations, it just seems to be a rebrand of the same old. The articulation breakdown is basically:
  • Ball jointed head
  • Ball/hinge shoulders
  • Bicep swivel
  • Hinged elbows
  • Swivel wrists
  • Ab crunch
  • Swivel waist
  • Those mattel styled hinged hips
  • Thigh swivel
  • Hinged knees
  • Hinged ankles

Thanks Hantei, that's what I figured. I wasn't really into much of the DC Universe stuff at first either. And by the time I finally did gain interest in the line, a lot of the figures I wanted were no longer in circulation. So being able to snag a Unlimited-Batman(52), is pretty cool(as it is clearly the best Batman availible in stores right now, in my opinion). Funny thing is, I wouldn't have a care in the world about DC, if it wasn't for that blasted '66 Batmobile. That thing is sweet, but it just doesn't look right sitting all by itself on the shelf.
