You can't have your cake and eat it too. Villains cost more to make because they're generally completely unique sculpts. Bandai has been able to get away with giving the villains about as much articulation as the Rangers in recent years because there's only been a couple, but when you start to make more you're gonna have to make concessions to keep them within the budget/price point. When Bandai was in their heyday of making villains they were always minimally articulated compared to the Rangers.

We're not talking about basic cut shoulder and hips like Hasbro is doing with their 3 & 3/4 stuff these days. Puzzler has swivel hinge shoulders and hips, which is technically 2 point of articulation each. Then there's knees on top of that, and it's not like his design allows for any kind of head movement. So I really don't see anything to complain about here. I don't want to see a good thing get ruined because people have unrealistic expectations.
