I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Btw, this sort of general information is available here: http://www.statueforum.com/showthread.php?t=164368
I was aware of that, but back when that was communicated they were still mentioning the $15 off as an incentive to order from them directly on the product listings. They stopped doing that.

I think the last statue that explicitly mentioned the $15 off was the Batman variant. There was no mention of it on the product listings for Robin, Starfire, and now Green Lantern.

While I like the construct, I didn’t care for the pose.
Congratulations for those who ordered!

Is the water bottle the exclusive for MM or GL?

Kind of on the fence with this one. Like it, don’t love it. Think I might swing towards XM with this character.

On the other hand I can’t wait for that Martian Manhunter. Far and away the piece I’m most looking forward to out of all Tweeterhead’s upcoming Maquettes.

Though personally, while I understand the the lantern iconography, I think using it in the bandolier is just a little too "clever". Conventional rounds would have looked stronger, and more on point to me. The little lantern cartridges don't read as ammo so much as little building blocks, which I don't think was the intent.

This is, however, one area where the Tweeterhead has it over the (arguably more impressive) XM 1/6, which is basically the exact same pose/concept.

In the XM, having the beam from the ring flow out and back behind the figure to make the construct looks odd.
With the Tweeterhead, having that backward flow become the ammunition for the construct gives it a distinct, logistical purpose.

Manhunter looks solid too. I envy the people that will have the space for an array of these as it's shaping up to be a quite appealing line- the unfortunate missteps so far, notwithstanding.
