NEW JLU 3-Packs Announced

[jds1911a1]

Info I got from members on the JLU site says that Mattel isn't going to make a Hal Jordan figure in costume for JLU ever. Apparently Warner Bros. and DC are pretty POed about Mattel making that "Holiday Hal" a few years ago. They made 100 figures at Christmas time and gave them to employees, but never got an OK from the higher ups. That's why they made that SDCC Green Lantern Origins set. Closest you'll get is the Hal in flightsuit, but you can swap heads with the other two in the set. Some customizers casted the Holiday Hal head. I must say, they did an outstanding job. I bought one and will post a picture if anyones interested.

unless DC, bruce timm or mattell officially say that is the case never say never. I remember website proclimations on PLanet oa when he was made that the holiday hal would the be the only HAL ever in JLU but we got the 3 pack. anyone can post anything on a message board unless they are posting with their real name and their position in mattel or DC that gives them this knowledge it's just one more internet rumor

Yeah, those are an ill-fit for JLU. And you can find most of those at Big Lots and Dollar General Stores. I never did get a proper colored Batgirl, but I an't paying $20 for her.

The Kenner TNBA Nightwing is a better fit with JLU sculpting than that mattel one from the late 90's

If they're re-releases of B:TAS figures they're not going to match the look perfectly of the JLU line....

They are actually reissues of when mattel got the batman animated licesnse not the kenner BAS figures so they are off in style and scale with JLU or BAS/TNBA from kenner (more in scale with Kenner's SAS line)

I absolutely love Mattel's animated Penguin, but it would be great to see something new. Batgirl & Nightwing can easily be made from existing JLU molds/new head sculpts...
