What also kills me about this figure is that it not only has legs, but hip articulation that she can't even use...

I can tell you for sure there is no hip articulation. Both legs and the pelvis are a solid unit. Any observed movement is just from where it's joined to the upper body.

The Pin head cracks me up, it's like she's been hanging around the shrunken head guy from Beetle Juice.

It's a fairly pathetic figure, yes. And sadly, I can imagine this'll be the shelfwarmer for Samurai.
