Those have a nice design. Perfect custom parts.

I think that is a new part. Doesn't look like their other fist gloves.

Agreed. Those are nice looking gloves.

[pmwasson]

I have to check my FTC gloves when I get home, but your probably right.

[Iron Mego]

Looks nice! Still not a big fan of the teeth, but the head sculpt is great.

[MIB41]

I like it! Works really well for that figure. I'm all for it.

[Brown Bear]

These look like the same gloves I ordered for my Captain America. I like the idea of a fist.

[Starroid Raiders Dagon]

Damn that figure is awesome. I'm pre-ordering these guys for sure.

[Werewolf]

Looks great. Actually looks like a Super Powers figure unlike their earlier ones like Superman and Batman.

So now they make a left handed fist in their '66 gloves...?
Question will be now will they sell the gloves as 2 pairs
(2 fisted, two open / slap hand) or will you have to buy it
deciding on which one you want to be a fist....?

Also ...probably just me...but I'd pull the sleeve down OVER the
gloves to make it appear as it should ....the sleeve bunched up like that
behind the gloves just don't look right to me...

Precedence has me thinking a non-Mego Supes & Bats are a possibility---altho', I reckon that the Mego-era "Fist-Fighter" style Supes and Bats w/the "Super Powers" logo may be the final word on the subject with those two in particular.

The more I look at the gloves, the less mego they look to me. I'd have preferred simple red hands. Same with Hal Jordan. They look too modern, and I'd hoped they'd blend in more with the Mego of old. Less is more.

[huedell]

Quick fix, they obviously forgot he had red hands.

I think Flash having red gloves is obvious... so, my guess is they rushed the pic out without remembering to put the gloves on---or maybe when the original pics were taken the gloves weren't ready yet.

Well, I think they'd be rebuked by the majority if oven mitts were involved---and I can't help but relate any new gloves/boots to resembling Mego Marvel's newer (later-WGSH-era) boots and gloves (Fantastic Four, Iron Man, etc) or Mego Teen Titans.... altho' when looking at this kind of thing, many have seen "Famous Covers" when I've seen "Late-era Mego", admittedly.

That said: I'm with you 100 percent on FTC's WGSH being as old-school vintage-era Mego as possible---Harley being added to the line-up aside.

Incidentally, I'm kinda surprised that, with the newer-era looking gloves, Flash's boots have no wings added to them. The "boot wings add" seems the more obvious tweak, as opposed to the "gloveless red hands" being tweaked with the gloves.
