I went to the WB today and I picked up a new GL Hal Jordan WB exclusive figure like the new Batman Beyond and the older Superman Batman & Robin the GL looks awsome!!!
I'll post a pic sometime this week.....
Man Hal Jordan/Green Lantern merchandise overload!
Yeah I was considering adding the item once I actually find them. I checked my local WB store and they don't have them yet. I'll give it another week, but I'll let you all know when Mall of Oa get's them in.
Then I realized you were quoting the same message I saw up on the RTM boards, I think. I went to my store today too and found nothing. THey even sold out of the dc 9" Hals at my store. And that was at regular price. I'm not sure what this new Hal fig is supposed to be? A statue from what I assume. Cause I don't recall a Batman Beyond or RObin done in the huge plastic figures only as statues. But then, I could've missed them before. Oh well, time to hunt it down...I just sure hope its true.
But not writing - nothing too interesting to comment about. Unless anybody wants to know of a GL sighting I had (but it's of an adult nature, so might be sensitive to some)
Unfortunately my story isn't Penthouse Letters material. If I had a sex life like those people write about, I wouldn't have time to be reading this board, would I? Anyway, I'm not proud to say I spend a great deal of time watching porn. In fact, my internet porn budget tops out at about $200/month. But personal confessions aside, I was watching a porn video and the male "actor" was wearing a Green Lantern t-shirt. I hadn't seen this particular shirt before. It was either black or a very dark green and on the front was the GL lantern symbol. On the back was the "In brighest day, in darkest night.." slogan. Well of course when the action got down and dirty the guy's pants were off, but he never removed that GL t-shirt. During a substantial part of the video, you see a shot from behind the guy, who is copulating with the female star. The funny part is that you get a close up, which includes this guys ass, and as he is (ahem) "pumping" up and down the bottom of his t-shirt keeps coming in and out of the picture, so with every stroke you see the words "Green Lantern's Light" (upstroke) "Green Lantern's Light" (upstroke) "Green Lantern's Light" etc....
I can see it now Hal Jordon doing a public service announcement for condoms. Can't you just see him saying "Hey kids before you do your thing put a green ring on your ding-a-ling"
I went and picked up the WB GL, and he looks really awesome. Maybe I just misunderstood, or caught a bad rumor, but is there supposed to be a resin figure similar to Robin, Catwoman, and Batman Beyond? Those guys cost around $45.
After all those years of nothing but Hasbro's Super Powers GL and Toybiz's GL, it took the death of Hal before all these Hal figs and merchandise start to pop up. Man, crappy way to get the figs of your hero, but oh well, at least my GL collection is growing now. By the way, on that 13" WB GL, is that joint between the boot and knee moveable? One of the wrists on mine was kinda stiff but I got it moving after awhile. The ones on the shins didn't but I don't want to force it in case I'm wrong.
I hadn't even tried that! I sorta tried to twist a boot, but like you said, it doesn't budge. I'll have to look at mine closer to see if his wrists turn.
Nope, sorry, the leg/shin joints do NOT rotate, so don't mess yours up by trying. This is one very cool figure, best in a long time, and blows that hideous 12" Kyle fig out of the water!
