Gosh I sure love gettin' toys in the mail :D My postman is actually slender blonde beauty with sunny personality, but since I work 9 to 5 with the new job, I never see her anymore. Bummer. Well, at least she brought me these last week...

I told myself I wasn't gonna buy these from MattyCollector, and I didn't the first time around. When they recently re-released them all together, the bulk shipping was easier to swallow. Some of the first toys posted on the Super-DuperToyBox when I started 21 months ago were these Retro-Action DC Superheroes, which are so much like my childhood Mego World's Greatest Superheroes.

The Green Lantern franchise hot after Geoff Johns' Blackest Night saga, just before the Green Lantern motion picture premiere last summer, Mattel was all things Green Lantern so we got these. I've waited a long time! I have Hal Jordan and the classic Sinestro already, making a good portion of my Retro-Action collection GL Corps... What can I say? I'm a big Green Lantern fan! I love that Mattel gave John Stewart an Afro and Guy Gardner the bowl cut. I've read a couple Kyle Rayner books recently, too, along with the first six GL New Guardian issues released with DCs New 52 relaunch- I'm a big fan of Tyler Kirkham's pencilling! I love how these are packed old-school, no twisty ties, a simple backing card- just like when I was a kid!.jpg)
More Later-Make It FUN!
Awesome! The John Stewart one is my favorite of the bunch.
ReplyDeleteWhen you have a tea party with these dollies you better make it...Green Tea.
ReplyDeleteYeeeaaahhhhh!!!!!!
WOW. I didn't know they even made those. I have many mego type figures myself. With their cloth costumes they are easily among my favorite style of figures out there. I am kicking myself that I didn't get some of those the first time around.
ReplyDeleteWhat the duce? I didn't realize these were released! Awesome score!
ReplyDeleteThose are pretty damn sweet!!!
ReplyDeleteI had seen the Kyle Rayner one...but the others are a total shocker.
