    i got 6 GL all are just as good as different... poor printing
    Poor printing cannot account for the size of the lantern symbol's outline stroke.

      Finally got my hands on 2 GLs tonight, both at the same place from the same shipment. One each of the emblem types; different colors and line sizes, one has no outline.

        Looks like the Line 1 is also better quality, from the pics ...
        Looks like the Aiming of the Emblems is better too.

          That might just be an artifact of the figure and camera angle. Here are more pix:

                    It seems like there are running changes being made or two different factory lines making the figs

                      My GL emblem is a little cockeyed, but it has the thick line and doesn't crack when stretching the fabric.

                        Pretty sure mine was cracked in the package, but I have no photo proof of that. He was kind of wedged in the card and has a head rub from where the top of his head was in contact with the bubble, so it's possible that it was the result of handling at the factory. That and the cracked emblem was why I opened him not the other.

                              They're definitely in several TRUs; that's where I got mine. Don't know specifically about Austin TX, though.

                                I've got the 'black edge' no turtleneck variant.

                                I don't care for Hal Jordan as a character (I always thought he was boring, and they reversed the most interesting thing that ever DID happen to him), I'm more of a Guy Gardner fan.

                                but I wasn't gonna pass up a GL Mego, especially when there's fun to be had with it.
