GL Movie Masters just finished, with Morro and Parallax rolling out.

I would have preferred all these as GL Classis (or most of them, at least), but the line is pretty top notch!
We got a lot of Lanterns from the movie that they never would have done in DCUC comic style, due to so many being non-humanoid. As badly as I'd want them, I could never see Mattel making a DCUC/GLC comics style Gallus Zed, Isamot, or Lop Fan, because none of them can use the standard body they recycle for everything.
Some others, I think look better than their comic counterparts, like Morro, Gallus, and Naut.
Either way, unlike Transformers, the movie style is so comic inspired that the alien MM lanterns can easily stand in for their DCUC comic counterparts.

Surprisingly, one of the best figures of the line is Hector Hammond. Unlike the other movie masters, he's constructed with the standard DCUC style. With a new head, he'd make a perfect base for Tim Drake. Give us a twopack, Mattel! Hammond with a new head as Drake, and Joker with a new head and coat as Alfred!
The worst of the line is easily Hal Jordan. Maskless Hal is a bit better, as he's got more paint details that bring him to life. Tomar Re, if they'd given him bigger feet or another couple joints in his legs, like Morrow has, he'd have been a lot more stable, and a lot better.

Parallax, I'll say is a lot more impressive in person. Sure, it has it's problems, I'll freely admit it. But the terrible pictures we've seen really don't do it justice.
It comes with a tiny translucent green Hal that can plug into the end of one of it's tentacle mouths, and can also be put inside it's chest cavity, like it ate him.
It is a bit on the ungainly side... I wish they'd have made a big stand to plug it into so it doesn't have to try to support itself... and thus have a bit more accurate shape... also I wish it had a few more joints. One at the "waist," and that it had a better range of motion with it's head. But those are really the only complaints I have. If it did have a greater range of movement in it's head, and a joint in it's waist, then you could pose him in far less humanish ways.
A minor nitpic is I wish they'd made a few more sockets that Hal could have plugged into.
It's size it very impressive, and the tiny GL figure *really* sells it.
Sure it could be a lot better, but I think it's a lot better a figure than what we thought it would be.
Too bad we could never get a simularly massize Ion or Predator to complement it.

I wish I'd been able to get Greenman. I can live without Abin Sur, but having missed Greenman leaves a huge hole in my display.

Well, I didn't like the 3.75" when they costed $6.97, but now that Wal-Mart has these on clearance for $1.50, I can accept them. I have now 6 more. I need to find a checklist so I won't get the same one twice(after visiting 2 Wal-Marts last week, I accidentally got Sinestro twice, and it's not worth $1.50 of my time and gas to return him, so gift for my boss he shall be)
