Funny thing is ...I always thought this had the worse anatomy of the 3. To me, his left arm looks dislocated.
No one trips like that. But I give you the arm lol.

Thats because it was supposed to be holding the Lantern. For whatever reason that got scrapped but they didnt rework the arm, hes underscaled and it was just a really bad piece. People went out of their way to defend it because at the time everyone thought it would be the only GL we would get.

I mostly liked the second one, but really didnt care for the base.

Still, there are a lot of DC character I would have rather seen than another GL.

That's a bummer, I didn't even know that.

There was some art or WIP that showed it with the lantern, no idea what the problem was, but the left arm was meant to be holding the lantern which is why it looks so odd without it. But it was sold out before anyone saw what it was intended to look like. If I recall the EX was supposed to be the lantern not the construct. The OG was just a fail on many levels.

lol, that's harsh. Out of the 1/4 Hals I've seen, it still is the only one I've chosen to have in my collection.

I seriously do hope I like XM's at this point, because I do want a Hal that looks good with other 1/4's.

FWIW I think TH's Hal is the best Hal, any scale, currently.

The Tweeterhead Hal is really nice, but give me the 1/3 Prime 1 Hal as my top choice. Of course I am a rabid GL fan so I have all of the SS (Hal and JS) and P1 (Hal and Kyle) GL statues. I really thought about the TH statues as well, but I have to draw the line somewhere, especially with some customs, of various scales, also in the fold. I can't wait to get the 1/3 Hal and Sinestro P1s, once they ship.

I agree. The Prime 1 1/3 scale is imo the best representation. Unfortunately how the light up function works is a total mess.

The P1 is great. But for the price and real estate it takes up, it needed to be prefect. And it's not.
