Pros: Larger (16" as opposed to Babs' 11.5"), better body construction and articulation, better hair, better face paint, better-made clothes, and as a rule don't have that I've-just-been-hit-in-the-back-of-the-head-with-a-cricket-bat expression, not wearing that stupid midriff outfit.

Cons: Expensive, can have cold expressions, you have to deal with FAO fucking Schwarz. Disappointing lack of glitter.

Sort of the difference between Captain Action and a Takara Batman.
