    Green Arrow reissue

    Anybody know, will there be any difference between the GA released on Matty Collector last Fall and the reissue due out next month?

      Good question...in Wave 2, Mattel was going to fix the Leg Problem. Maybe by the time of the GA "re-release"...they'll have the new Bodies?

        Where was it announced that Mattel was changing the legs?
        Expectation is the death of discovery.

          I think the ad in toyfare said he will have black arm bands this go around.

            Doc said in a previous thread that GA "should be" the same as the first sale.

                Any changes at all would make the first edition more collectible...

                  He "should" be the same, since this is a restock and not a new product.

                    I would hope for a straight up restock of the original figure, but the body will probably change.

                    If they change the bodies to the ones used for the wave one release, that would be a bit of a step backwards. If it is on a new body destined for the wave 2 or 3 figures, that would be an interesting preview.

                      I would agree.
                      It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                        Personally I'd like to correct my mistake of the past and get one now to round out this new collection/ addiction I've gotten myself into

                            i just checked the picture on matty collector and ga has black arm bands and black hands.
                            Action Jackson is his name.
                            Bold adventure is his game.

                              The picture on mattycollector is the prototype made by Dave Mc, Joe, and I
                              last year. The arm bands are not black, but a deep green that was not the
                              color we wanted, but the material was great.

                              We searched high and low for pleather that was better than the outdoor
                              table cloths that are everywhere.
