Green Arrow now on Matty

[The Toyroom]

Anyone else think there's gonna be a bottle-neck of traffic on Matty Collector on the 15th considering ALL of the desirable swag they're putting up that day? Everyone's gonna hafta set their watches.....

[Meule]

I have a Ali glove that might work if you still need it Thomas

That would probably work too, thanks Joe

[AAAAA]

Probably too heavy. Besides, I'd need to drill a small hole in the back of the boxing glove to fit it over the umbrella. That and I don't need 5 boxing gloves

i think its chrome plated plastic

[Gorn Captain]

And sorry to break it too you guys, but boxing glove arrows don't work.
Believe me, I've tried.

You can never, ever, hit a deer with it.....

[Gorn Captain]

As for safety rules: any kid can choke on a Star Wars action figure.
They're small enough.
Should they then ban small size figures?
And robots that fire missiles?

Anyway, even if an arrow had to be surgically grafted onto the bow, I would have picked a "normal" one.
Or one with an egg whisk.
'cause those can be real handy!

Do you have to be registered or have an login ID or anything to buy on Matty? I've never bought on there before. Are there any hoops to jump thru to buy something? I signed up for the newsletter a few weeks ago. I hope that is enuff.

[wilbs518]

Yes j scott o. You need to set up an account with your info. I have never had a problem with them and I have been ordering JLU and MOTUC from the beginning.

[j_scott_o]

How do you set up an account? The only thing I see is a 'SignUp' button. That is for the newsletter. Does it prompt for you to create an account the first time you order something?

[j_scott_o]

Ah, nevermind. It does ask you to create an account when you try to checkout.

AFI has pictures of the actual production figure.

The picture on mattycollector is ther prototype taken at San Diego
in July.

The arrow is part of the bow, not glued on, due to the new rules
about child safety. The original bow is considered a projectile
hazard so we had to add the arrow to prevent kids from using
the bow to shoot something at another kid's face.

that makes it a perfect christmas toy

"You'll shoot your eye out, kid."

Ah, nevermind. It does ask you to create an account when you try to checkout.

If you've never ordered from Matty before, prepare yourself for quite an experiance. I suspect the 15th will be the worst that the red screen of death has ever been.

[MEGOMAN]

I am not scared. This s*%t is on! Ready for internet battle!

[toystalker]

you guys make make laugh

i can see some of you now, setting up camping tents and sleeping bags in the living room by the computer

I wonder how significant the dropping of WGSH is from the name of the line. It kind of implies that there will be non comic stuff in the line eventually.

[drmego]

I posted this on another thread:

The name of the line has been changed from World's Greatest Superheroes
to Retro Action: DC Superheroes because WGSH didn't fit the overall
concept of the plans for next year and beyond.
