Nice sculpting job on the face and figure. So nicely done. The Four Horsemen and Mattel produced another very nice figure.

Someday I hope we get to see the Silver Age Green Arrow and Speedy…done in such detail.

Anyway, until then, …. this is a very nice GREEN ARROW ….and it’s another “winner”. Thanks, Horsemen and Mattel.

A bit disappointing, agreed. Glad to have him, considering I am still missing half of Wave 8. I don’t like arrows as accessories either, I lose them too easily. I know it is important for this figure, though.

Barely. Not the 4 Horsemen’s fault, I’m certain.

No – and you can’t fit his arrows into it either.

AND the bow string doesn’t stretch a millimeter. I really don’t want to mutilate this to make it right – maybe I can use an old LOTR figure’s bow painted green.

I’m sure the Four Horsemen did all they could, but couldn’t Mattel afford to provide an actual string?
What a gyp…

Furthermore, if some folks here simply want nice sculpts at the expense of posability, they’re called “DC Direct” and they’ve been available for quite a while.
I dunno – my TB-ML Hawkeye is crouching in Giant Man’s hand with his arrow hand to his eye.
It would’ve been nice if I could have even remotely approached that pose with Ollie here.

What a bummer.
On the actual product the arrow is attached to the bow, and posability is limited since you can’t bend his forearm back on his upper
arm – it’s always at that damn right angle.
And I was SO looking forward to posing him with the glove arrow…

Dude, even his ankles have more swivel articulation, a really great surprise! Never thought I would acquire this guy, but his color / paint wash was decent so I took a chance & bought him…..Now, I’m glad I did…..His wrists rotate , swivel & bend indeed – can pose his right hand akin to a Tiger claw stance……

Yes, the way he can hold the arrows is awesome. Vigilante in the last wave has a finger on his left hand that actually fits into the trigger on the revolver and big gun, too. Good job, Four Horsemen!
