The Green Lanterns are back in the spotlight as Lanterns has finally arrived on HBO Max. We are now three episodes into this brand-new, grounded drama starring Hal Jordan and John Stewart. With the focus on these classic Lanterns, it is time to turn our attention to Mattel's new DC Comics Core Collection, which rises from the aftermath of McFarlane Toys' DC Multiverse line. This new line of action figures stands 6.5 inches tall, and balances sculpt, articulation, accessories, and playability. Both Green Lanterns are offered in the DC Comics Core Collection, with Hal Jordan being featured in an exclusive three-pack while John Stewart receives a solo release in Wave Two. We were able to get our hands on John Stewart this time around, and he's everything we wanted him to be.
If you are a fan of the classic DC Comics animation from Warner Bros., then John Stewart is one of those iconic Justice League members. John is now ready to join the fight with a brand-new figure that stands roughly 6.5 inches tall, features 22 points of articulation, and is packed with some fun accessories. John Stewart will be part of Wave Two for Mattel's DC Comics Core Collection, which will also consist of Stealth Suit Batman, Jokerized Batman, and Superman. Green Lantern features a shiny green and matte-black design and comes with some fun translucent green accessories that capture his ring's power in full effect. Out of Wave Two, this figure definitely stands out with a really fun sculpt, powerful poses, and some fun accessories that truly bring the Green Lantern's power to life.
John Stewart comes with armor that can attach to his body, a blaster, and a Gauntlet that can display not one but two blasters for some intense firepower. The accessories for this figure are very well done, and this figure shows that Mattel knows what they are doing this time around. Mattel has perfectly balanced playability, articulation, details, and accessories with a truly incredible price point that makes these figures stand out. At $12.99, these action figures are like nothing else and will truly expand your DC Comics collection to new heights, while also allowing for even more fun alongside your Marvel Legends, G.I. Joe, and Star Wars collections. DC Comics fans, you don't have to wait to bring home John Stewart, Green Lantern, as his figure is already available for purchase right now. By brightest day!
