Check them out here at:

DC Superheroes Mattel Retro-Action (Mego Vintage Style) Series 1 Action Figure Set of 4 - Green Lantern, Lex Luthor, Superman & Sinestro

You can also look at each individual figure for an even closer look. They look AWESOME!!! Can't friggin wait to see series 2!!!

One of the things that really impresses me is how good the color matching is between the cloth, rubber, plastic and vinyl pieces of the outfits. They really nailed it.

I like em' too . . . . It's puzzling to me when I read posts that seem to pick these things apart. This is a dream come true for all of us, take a moment and appreciate what's going on here . . .

[Brown Bear]

Agreed. These things are certainly a dream come true for many!!

GL has a Shatner thing going on, kind of funny considering how many customs of him have use Captain Kirk as a base.

That is sooooo true.
I look at stuff like Haiti, and I think, if the biggest problem you have in life is Superman's boots, you don't have any problems.

Enjoy life's little pleasures people...

[Werewolf]

I think they look great.

Some folks have different expectations about what they envision as a MEGO. Or even what they envision as Mego-like. These folks have just as much of a right to state their dissatisfaction as you do to state your elation. Not everyone on these boards agrees with each other on every single point. It is good that way, it makes it much more interesting and easier to hold a conversation.

Ok let's say this is so . . . . isn't that a very narrow viewpoint? (i.e. they didn't make these the way I wanted them to be) you gotta think big picture here . . . . would we all prefer the older style boots?, I think so, but Mattel is doing what they think is best based on what they know and what Paul has given them. Again all I'm saying is take some time to enjoy them and a little less time being a NY Times Toy Critic (not you specifically) I think I speak for many here when I say I can't wait to walk into a ToysRus and see these guys hanging on a peg! what a day that will be! . . . for now I just can't wait until AmokTime ships mine!

What he said.
I'm a member of the He-man forums too, and they are really bad over there about "voicing their opinions". My god, every time a new figure is shown, there's somebody demanding a boycott of Mattel over something like "They flocked Moss Man's ears!" (No, I'm not kidding.)
Problem with the internet is people put too much importance on their own input. Not every figure is going to be the way you like it, so just like it for what it is.

People who look for something wrong with everything always find it. FACT
