MATTEL: Green Lantern Classics

[DCFett]

MAN, Sinestro gets NO LUV in the DCU line!!!
Guy looks weird, John's uniform is weird...DANG!

I'll stick with the DCD Blackest Night series. Depends if any figures interest me when they are released. I hate when mattel does those walmart/target exclusives.

3 completely different figures seems like a lot of love to me. Even if you don't like the final product. We still have no freakin' Martian Manhunter.

That dont equal luv man. Nothing about those figures say L U V!

MM is coming. I'd put money on that. It's in the Wally and Amazon computer, so it MUST exist!!!!

Sinestro will get his due before the end of next year, I'm sure, being a major character in the movie (played by the inimitable Mark Strong, no less). I'd say they tried to give him love, but I'm willing to bet even the 4HM aren't happy with his figures so far. It's just a waiting game. I think to make up for it when the DO pull their head out of their arse and make him, he should be a quadruple variant to make up for the crappy ones: Sinestro duds, Black and Blue, Green Lantern (WITH MASK!) and White Lantern (so they can re-use said mask).

I think I'm setting the bar too high but I can dream...

I'd be all over that White Lantern one! Oooh, ooh, and one with a removable mask!!!..............................I can dream too

 

[Buttmunch]

Nah, removable masks at this scale just don't work without something looking bad as a result (small head, huge mask, etc).

Freaking hell same here!

 

[Silent December]

wow, what a disappointment! those look more like Infinite's than classics. I can already tell there's going to be tons of sets pilfered and/or switched out and returned.

Well, if the helmets can be done sucessfully and goggles and glasses, then a mask IS possible. Granted, it'd have to be done very carefully, but it's not like the technology to make it happen isnt there.

And Abin Sur's sister. And Soranik's mom. Wait, were they the same person? I don't remember and I'm slightly hung over...

Funny that they can't do it. Removable Minimate masks work fine, and the entire figures are freakin' two inches tall!

Of coarse they look find. Their head's are a simplistic shape.

If the 21st century has taught us anything, it's that ANYTHING can be miniturized!!!

Them double elbow, knee and wrist hinges better make it to production. Love that Kyle figure more every time I see it.

 

[amusedjester]

Oh SNAP!! Mike, you da man!! I hope Manhunters are easy to find 'cause i'm gonna get me ten of those bad boys!!

 

[Erech Overaker]

About time we got a Kyle.

I'm starting to regret not getting the Color of Fear 2 pack. I read that the DCUC upcoming wave will have a corrected Sinestro in blue costume with a Sinestro Corps variant. It might be the time to jump in here...
