These shells are pretty good, and I got the full bodies for like 120 a dozen, but they do not have them anymore.

As far as movement I can only speak for GHG and Higdon. Both have about the same movement in my opinion. I think the higdons are a little brighter in color (more white) than the GHG. Some of my GHG have paint chips, but nothing crazy. The Dakotas look good and the new avian X series look good.

If your looking for more movement than anything maybe use some socks. I think all full bodies are equal on movement more about looks and durability than anything.

I like the big foot mallards with the wire bases, and the avery ghg. I've hunted over both and both work well. can't speak for any of the other brands

Some old schoolers use G&H and Exono shells(painted to Specks) and make motion stakes outa faucet washers/rods to create some good movement.

This ^^^

FB decoy movement only suggest the bird can't decide whether to turn right or left to get the next bite. Equivalent of the Hokey Pokey.
