DC Universe Classics Wave 14 Packaged Pics

DC Universe Classics Wave 14 - half case (900x1200).jpg

I’m not quite sure how, but trs from the Fwoosh, who got us some really early packaged pics of DC Universe Classics wave 11 almost a year ago, has done it again. Now he has got his hands on what is probably one of the first sets of the Wal-Mart exclusive wave 14 in the United States – at least not ones that fell out of the back of a truck in China.

He is guessing that these will start hitting Wal-Marts within the next two weeks. He particularly liked how Zatanna turned out, and I’m inclined to agree!

I’ll hold off on my final thoughts until I have these in hand, but I am concerned about a trend of larger heads. Guy Gardner has giant head syndrome from the Green Lantern’s Light 5-pack, and OMAC has it from wave 15. Here it looks like Alan Scott and Obsidian have it too. Could be hereditary, in their case. 😉

Green Lantern Classics Manhunter and Mongul Auctions

AFP reader Shadow Contact did us a solid and sent us something we can post on a lazy Friday morning – aside from today’s CaptionFigurePics.com entry, that is.

So, if you’re one of those guys who can’t wait for figures that are going to hit retail in just a couple of months, then these eBay auctions for two of the first series of Green Lantern Classics are for you.

DC Manhunter Robot Universe Green Lantern W1 presale – $50 Buy It Now – ends Nov 19, 2010 07:57:23 PST

DC Sinestro Corps Mongul Universe Green Lantern presale – $40 Buy It Now – ends Nov 19, 2010 07:57:23 PST

The interesting thing about Mongul is that his forearms look to be from new tooling. The original pic sent to online retailers (which you can see here in the Amazon pre-order page – Green Lantern Classics Mongul Collector Figure) shows him with the original forearms from when he was originally sold in the DC Superheroes line. The new bracers look like standard Sinestro Corps issue that he was drawn with when he first got his yellow ring. I wonder who will be the first to customize him with an empty eye socket!

Let me know if you decide to pick one up!

Green Lantern Hal Jordan and Sinestro 2-Pack Auction Pics?

AFI poster AbominableDesolation linked to these two pictures of Hal Jordan and Sinestro hosted at auction image hosting site Auctiva (Hal | Sinestro) – could they be production samples of the upcoming Green Lantern 2-pack? Hal features a metallic paint job on the classic costume and painted pupils. Sinestro is on a new base body and looks taller, and looks to reuse the head and lower arms of the original figure from DC Universe Classics wave 3.

I was not able to find auction listings for these guys, so I can’t confirm what these are. Anyone know?

Update: AbominableDesolation provided us with links to the auctions (Hal | Sinestro) – thanks!
