    Mobius Green Lantern Model

    I have had this thing lying around for a while and began working on it about 3 months ago. Finally finished it off last night . . . couldn't resist popping some LED's into it.

    I've never seen that kit before. It's awesome. The LED sets it off. Is that a switch in Hal's back? You're making me want to go buy some kits now. Been over twenty years since I've built anything outside of custom figures.
    I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she dumped me before we met.

    If anyone here believes in psychokinesis, please raise my hand.

        Wow! Wonderful job.
        You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

          Too bad this character translated so badly onto the big screen. That Blackest Night series could have been big for DC. Model looks great LED's do make it awesome. Such a good character for stuff like print and toys but not movies I guess.
          It's not a doll it's an action figure.

              Sweet monkey god that looks phenomenal!
              If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                These new styrene kits that have been coming out look great!! The poses are dynamic and they're very reminiscent of the Aurora kits. There's a Wolverine one I saw that looks really nice as well.

                I think they're sculpted digitally which may help with creating the split parts.

                The robot looks like he's smiling. I guess he's into it.

                    Wow! That is stunning. Great job on it, and the LEDs just add to it. I may have to pick this up soon...

                          Looking forward to seeing what you do with that. Luv those Disney kits from way back when. As far as I know, they haven't been re-released.

                            ^^ I know, of all the kits from back then i wish they would do these and the Pirates. They sell for big money. I was lucky and got this one for less than a "Hunsky". Will proably look at putting LED's inside the organ that come on when the Mummy comes out.
