    Definitely the Moore/Bissette era version. Looks good. I would like a more Wrightson-esque version, though. A few plastic add on vines to twist around him would have been good, as well. Still happy with the result and definitely getting him. He and Hal Jordan are my favorites DC characters of all time.

        This Swamp Thing looks like it will have been well worth the wait. I just hope the body is a quality one and not all loose and flimsy, or overly tight. Not sure if there are many options for swapping his body to something more durable (like we do with regular FTC figures).

          Great head sculpt and I guess the whole thing is about as good as Mego Swamp Thing could be, which is, well... Not very good.

            The thing that will upset me the most about this figure is if it's joints are actually looser than the old Kenner Snap Up Swamp Thing.

                    Swamp Thing was announced about the same time as Wonder Woman 77 so we should be getting a chance to see what those figures look like soon.

                      Swamp Thing is available now, maybe since wonder woman 1984 is coming out on christmas dY, it would be a treat if ftc shows us 77 WW around then or the status of the line.

                            I just ordered Swamp Thing as well. I can't wait for him to arrive. I was tempted to purchase Jesus as well, but, well, lead us not into temptation.

                              Or you could buy both and recreate the lost Swamp Thing tale: 'Morning Of The Magician' where Swamp Thing meet Jesus
