SSC Green Lantern 1/6 Figure

[onethousandmasks]

Sucks about the suit. It looks good, but too restrictive. Guess you have to apply some heat to get more dynamic poses.

Mine will be here friday.

I have a extra Bats body if needed.

You can cut the seam at the bottom of the pants to pick them up. That would give the pants more give, but I can't tell how much. Also, the suit will not fit the Batman body. It doesn't stretch much, plus it doesn't have that seam on the back like the Batman and Superman outfit.

Thanks OneThousandMasks for the pics and the summary!
For me, I was never going to spread his legs or have him kicking anyway (he's not Batman), so I'll still be happy with him! Glad the sculpt looks good, and I think they went with a decent shade of green.

All he is good for is museum pose, which I think at lot of people prefer. You can't do any dynamic poses.




Btw, the mask is a separate piece. But is it not a reveal mask. It has the shape of the mask indented onto the face and glued on.

GL with the green flower EX on.

Thanks again for the extra shots!
Interesting that he can't do that pose, as they have 2 pics of him in a similar pose on the website.
Oh well. I'll likely have him in a hover pose. The limited articulation definitely limits display options. At the same time though, I don't leave my HT Amazing Spidey 2 figure in dynamic poses either (even though he can do them), cause I don't want to ruin the suit. Ahhhhhh toy collecting..

OneThousandMasks? Based on your pics, does the fist construct also have a guantlet already pre-attached? Or does it fit over a fist?

The construct comes with another gauntlet with green shading on it. It also has a fist attached to it that I couldn't remove.

They also went with Hot Toys style pegs.

With a little effort I was able to get this pose.

I guess if you keep strectching the fabric little by little, will eventually give in a tad. or as Evil F suggested a little heat might help.

Would you have to rip the seams on sides to take off the suit? I mean it's nice that the suit doesn't have that seam at the back which wouldn't be covered by a cape. However, it sucks that it's more difficult to take off.

Pretty much.

Tony put up his suit, will prolly grab one.

Damn, David! That looks awesome. I hate to sound like a broken record but how hard would it have been for Sideshow to make that Green Lantern figure? It's so awesome in it's simplicity. Maybe that's why it's great; how simple it is, not so overly complicated. I guess SSC was trying to give it the look Hal has when he uses the Ring and there is a green aura around his body but at the end of the day it's just a guy in a green and black suit with white gloves.

Even though I grew up with that Green Lantern outfit, I never liked it (even as a kid). It always looked like some kind of 80's women's aerobics outfit.

I like Tony's suit much better. Would look perfect if it was shiny like the boots though. I'll probably just wait and see what the Mezco GL will look like.

That can be said for many superhero uniforms. So I'm guessing you are not going to buy the Sideshow Hal Jordan?

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea went ahead and ordered a Tony suit.

New 52 was made for you.

Not a fan of the shinny stuff, will just repaint it when ingest a chance, or make a new boots instead.....

could someone please tell me where/how to get the "tony suit"?

There are tons of Iron Man figures to choose from.

 

[OutLander]

Forget about the "tony suit", where can I get a tony figure?

I am, absolutely. The only thing that's holding me from paying my local supplier, is Popcultcha. Much better price on that site, and so far, I haven't heard if any Canadian shoppers get hit with duty. I posted in the Popcultcha thread, but if I don't hear back in a day or so, I'll just buy it and take the risk. It'll still be $30-$40 less...

Nope. Not a fan of New 52 suits either. GL is just one of the few classic costumes I never really liked. I happen to like the Rebirth outfit better...

Got this guy last night. I've always been a big fan of the texture and shiny on the suit. I think it works really well. The light up lantern is also great - really bright and not impossible to turn on like Hot Toys would have made it.

Understandable. I saw the pic someone colored on FB and looks great.
