    Will Retro Green Lantern include a lantern?

    I haven't seen a lantern included with him in any prototype photo. I thought the reason for giving these guys hands without mitten gloves was so they could hold things.

      Well.. most figures can get by w/out accessories, but Green ARROW needed his bow and quiver. I would think that Green LANTERN should have his ring & lantern just the same. It's almost always included in other toy lines/formats..

        I thought Doc said in one of the other threads that he would come with the lantern... I could be wrong...

          My guess is we will be both pleased and excited come Toy Fair in 3 weeks.

            Green Lantern will have a power battery. It was not ready for the San Diego
            announcement and that was when all the photos were taken.

              While not essential, I think power batteries for GL & Sinestro would be cool.

              With the Mattel line, an accessory for nearly evey figure would be a nice & welcome bonus:

              batarangs
              magic lasso
              shield & mace
              white-dwarf matter
              kryptonite
              rayguns
              trident
              umbrella
              canes

              and on & on...
              WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

                Whoa, back up there.....White-Dwarf Matter? Exactly what would that look like and how fun would it really be to play with?

                  I dunno, but it sounds pretty racist to me.

                  If I get rotocast heads and a lantern for $20, I'll be pretty damn happy. I may still whine about various perceived injustices with the figures, but I'll be smiling on the inside.

                      Actually it is a boxing glove power battery! And the ring is not removeable
                      from his hand.

                        Is it waaaay too early to start talking about BLACKEST NIGHT VARIANTS! Sinestro in his Sinestro Corps outfit. Hal's little forays into the other Color Corps such as when the Blue Lantern ring tried to latch onto him. Batman as Green Lantern or Sinestro Corps!

                          Yes it is. DC Direct usually handles storyline-specific lines, but nothing is set
