Is the Catwoman Box insert color the same as a Green Arrow Box insert? I know that the color of The Joker, Tarzan, and Lizard are the same color. Batman and Superman are the same also. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I think, because the Heroes' and Gals' box inserts are fundamentally different constructions, I had not previously considered that material cross-over. But certainly it would be in keeping with Mego's re-use/recycle methodology. Inserts are nothing more than sheets of plain brown cardboard that are flood-coated, trimmed and folded, so the question is whether or not Green Arrow and Catwoman inserts were cut from the same large sheets of light-green-printed cardboard.
Perhaps someone who has both MIB figures handy would be willing to open them up and compare the inserts side-by-side. I will go out on a limb and say that I believe they are the same green ink color — albeit very different structures. Here are a couple of photos I took for the book (but never used), which show the inherent construction differences between Heroes' and Gals' box inserts.
To depict the Gals' box insert, I just happened to use a Catwoman box insert, and in comparing it to a crisp Green Arrow box, I would say they are very, very close, if not identical. See for yourself:
Hopefully someone else, in possession of physical samples, can confirm or deny, but I say "Probably".

I hope someone can chime in with photographic evidence one way or the other.
