Customer Review: Best Hal Jordan…EVER!…so far
I was surprised, which is saying a lot considering I’m an avid toy collector and have been snatching up the other DC Universe Classics figures.

This figure of Hal Jordan as Green Lantern is exactly what the namesake of the toyline proclaims: CLASSIC.

Its Jordan, in the uniform, ring on finger, and with the power battery. It’s simple, but perfect. I couldn’t be happier with it. DC Direct has some ne GL figures in the pipeline, but none are as articulated as this one.

I highly recommend buying it.
Customer Review: DC Universe Classics: Hal Jordan as Green Lantern
From DC Universe Classics’ third series comes the legendary Emerald Gladiator himself: the fearless Hal Jordan as Green Lantern. Suffice to say, based upon this action figure alone, Mattel certainly deserves significant credit for how close it is coming to matching DC Direct as today’s best producer of superhero figures for mass audiences.

While DC Direct has a superior display-only rendition of Green Lantern from “Justice: Series 3″ by Alex Ross, this DC Universe Classic figure is still an excellent runner-up with the added advantage of being appropriate for all ages, particularly for kids who want a toy more sophisticated than the smaller “Justice League Unlimited” figures. In fact, when I first saw this Green Lantern figure, it seemed like the same cartoon character from the old “Challenge of the Super Friends” animated television show had suddenly come to life before my eyes. The resemblance is that good.

Now, for the most pertinent question: does the actual figure resemble the promotional photo’s representation of it? My answer is: yes!

The only odd note about the figure is his accessory. The lantern power battery in the display photo shares the same emerald hue as Jordan’s costume, but the actual toy lantern’s shade of green resembles that of a lime popsicle. The lantern just isn’t as well-produced as the photo implies. Perhaps this discrepancy was simply a manufacturing glitch or, more likely, it was a cost-saving measure.

At any rate, if you remember owning the vintage Kenner “Super Powers” figure from nearly 25 years ago like I do, this new Mattel figure will definitely bring back some fond memories. Further, as Hal Jordan’s best DC Direct figures can be somewhat pricey and hard to locate, this Green Lantern rendition should well suit your expectations for a high-caliber figure. Speaking of which, I would rate this particular figure’s sculpting and paint job easily a few notches above the Hal Jordan / Green Lantern figure from the first wave in DC Direct’s own “Green Lantern” series.

Despite the minor discrepancy with the lantern accessory, I highly recommend this Green Lantern figure from DC Universe Classics. It is well worth your investment.

Rating: Excellent.
My Score: 9.75 (on a scale of 1 -10).
