    It's great to hear about their commitment to this line! Comments like these give me the vapors!

        Do the same figure as the Red Arrow for TRU. I believe there is already a 5 inch figure out there that is pretty much the same as this Mattel one in looks but in red. Then everyone is happy. Maybe do a different arrow on the bow for a variation.
        It's not a doll it's an action figure.

          Oh hell no, variants is a sure way to kill the line if you ask me

            Red Arrow's costume is significantly different from Green Arrow's.

            Besides that Roy is likely not gonna be RA for very much longer.

            and finally, I understand that RA appeared in Kingdom Come, but I'd really rather Elseworlds not get made in this line, as there's already PLENTY of other figures that need done in this format.

            plus, I'd really rather have Roy as SPEEDY.

                  Translation: Buy them when on May 17th while you can.
                  Ok, that is what I was wondering. I will try to get 2 on May 17th! I never really read his comics, but I loved Green Arrow.
                  Green Arrow, Green Lantern, Batman, Iron Man are probably my favorites I guess because I had a shot to be them. No chance of me being born on Krypton for example...

                    I meant to comment on that too. That was good to read.

                        Wondering the same thing....

                        Hey Doc, will it be exactly the same as the first run of Matty GA's.....?

                            Just to note.. matty.com said there will be a "very limited" amount of GLs made available.

                            Methinks there are going to be a number of unhappy campers come 5/17.
