    I kinda prefer the "circus costume". It just looks right for Sinestro...Its how he looked when I was a kid.

    Those boots are great by the way!!

        I can't decide which one I want the most (after Green Arrow of course). It's like asking a parent to say which kid they love more.

              Of course his body will be the same color as his face and hands.

                Maybe the yellow outfit will be a Mattycollector.com exclusive ..

                  Not a fan of the yellow outfit, the way he is now is Sinestro to me

                    The head sculpt looks great and his costume is how I always see him....

                      He looks good. I'm thinking if you re-paint the head you can have a custom Alfred


                      Think B.A. Where did you hide the Megos?

                        That head is great. He looks so arrogant.

                          The more I look at the Head Sculpt...something Bugs me. No insult intended to the Sculptor...as I don't know what Artwork was used as a reference point? But the receding Hairline Sinestro...isn't my favorite version of the Character. I much prefer Brian Leitner's version. Maybe it's not too late to bring the Hairline down a bit?

                          Not trying to "push"...just a suggestion.

                            A number of different art references were used, from Gil Kane to Superfriends. The trick is to take the best parts of that ref and put it together, then make it Megoesque. I doubt the sculpt will be changed now, but that's why we all customize, right?

                            And you could paint Sinestro flesh color to make an Alfred figure, as long as you don't mind Alfred having pointed ears.
                            Expectation is the death of discovery.

                                If his hairline ain't receding---to me, it ain't Sinestro.

                                Also, if it had the modern yellow costume I wouldn't look twice at it let alone buy it.
