Just a fantastic figure choice for this first wave. Who wouldn't have wanted to see Mego produce this figure in our youth? Head looks great and I really like the costume. Nice work by all. I can't wait to see what the final product looks like. This is a must have figure for me.

My first custom that I actually bought parts for and put together was GL. The perfect choice for the first wave.

[MIB41]

I'm ready with this one. Well made and NOTHING needs to be changed. Nice sculpt and great looking costume. Nice touch having the ringed hand in the fist position. Excellent.

The announcement of this figure is like somebody is making things right in the Mego Universe. Correcting a horrible mistake that happened +\- 30 some odd years ago. As with Lex, but even more so, IMO, Green Lantern should have been in the original WGSH line. I'm so glad to see this one getting the attention he deserves.

And, I agree, the Ring needs to be on a fist hand. Great touch, there.

Add me to the chorus, this is a homerun all the way. Now if Flash comes in wave II, everything will finally be set right in the Mego world.

I have nothing to say other than I'd love it if they gave the finished figure that great tan the Superfriends GL always seemed to sport.

You know, one of the reasons I loved the Super Powers figure line as a child was that I could play out my Green Lantern / Green Arrow comics with those figures. I was always sad that my Green Arrow Mego had no real Green Lantern Mego to hard travel around with. I had a childhood kitbash custom, but it just wasn't the same.

Now, at all once EMCE has corrected that issue for me in a grand way.

Love it but I hope the emblem is a hair larger.

I have to wonder how many will be taking the boxing glove from Green Arrow and give it to Green Lantern?

[Captain]

The facial sculpt reminds me of somebody...but I cant put my finger on who?

They could borrow the Walton's truck!

You, sir, are a genius!

[Raydeen1]

Love it but the gauntlets take away for the overall coolness of the figure. That's my only gripe.

3 figures I wanted so badly as a kid: Hawkman, Flash and GL. Can't wait to get my grubby hands on these!

The fist hand has a really great sculpt of the GL ring on the fist hand.
It's a shame you can't see it in the pictures - I will try to post a
close-up of the fist.
