McFarlane Toys is spotlighting lesser-known Green Lantern Corps members with new action figure pre-orders launching today.
Today’s news in the collectibles world is led by McFarlane Toys’ intriguing move to expand their Green Lantern offerings. As reported by DC Collectors, they are releasing pre-orders for figures of Ghr’ll, Medphyll, and Naut Ke Loi. This new line focuses on alien members of the Green Lantern Corps rather than the often-frontlined Earth-bound characters such as Hal Jordan or John Stewart. It’s a notable effort to deliver deeper cuts from the DC Universe, exploring the broader, often under-represented, mythology of the Green Lantern Corps.
Interestingly, the initial announcement from McFarlane also included the character Sinestro, but this figure seems to be missing from the latest release details. Whether this suggests a delay or a strategic adjustment remains unclear, but it does highlight the variability and unpredictability that can often accompany pre-order announcements in the collectibles industry.
Meanwhile, in the realm of high-end collectibles, Mezco Toyz has begun pre-orders for their highly anticipated One:12 Collective Peacemaker figure. Based on the character as depicted in the HBO Max series Peacemaker and The Suicide Squad, this John Cena-inspired figure caters to fans of the character’s quirky and patriotic antics. The collectible, priced at $115.00, is expected to ship in the second quarter of next year, and pre-orders are available through popular online retailers like BigBadToyStore and Entertainment Earth.
On the comic book front, B Toys Blog highlights the latest developments in the ongoing Thunderhawks saga. The series presents a narrative where the Thundercats from Third Earth align against the Silverhawks. These new editions continue to deepen the intrigue with secret plans and symbolic energy struggles furthering an evolving storyline that connects with both Thundercats and Silverhawks aficionados. While not directly related to collectibles, series like these often inspire or reinvigorate interest in toy lines, potentially signaling future collectible developments.
