    Yes...that is the up side!Rotocast Heads, China made Accessories, Costumes, etc...And since they're not original Megos, you don't have any guilt about hacking these Babies up!

    But I personally feel the default Mattel body is actually not that bad. I think it's very nice looking and well contructed overall. Definitely a top quality item. The only flaw I feel is the current pelvis design doesn't allow the legs to hold a straight out pose.

    I'm leaving mine as is.

    At any rate, I am stoked to be able to swap, heads, hands and clothes for these new figures.. it makes a mighty fine looking "new" mego with a little help

    They actually fit great in our (Cast-A-Way) forearms...

    I just can't wait to get all the parts from the next wave, the parts alone will be well worth the cost of the figures... Add a better body and V-O-I-L-A!

    I love my Hybrid GA

    Well, I got my Green Arrow today...and Boy was I excited when UPS arrived. It was short lived.

    The Body is TOTAL GARBAGE! I just can't believe they screwed it up so badly? There's barely any movement in the Arms, he won't stand...and the Legs look like Crap!

    The Good: After much hard work getting the Head off(soaked it in boiling Water), and transferring it to a Doc Mego Body, with Cast-A-Way Biceps & Doc Mego Forearms(so the green Hands would fit). And adding some CTVT's Boots. I finally have a decent GA. But what a shame one has to do all that...to a brand new Figure.

    So the glove does come off. The upsidedown ness can be fixed. I wonder if they were planning interchangeable trick arrowheads?
