Image Gallery Opens Up for NECA’s Unique Green Lantern vs. “Sinestro Corps Predator” 2-Pack
As they recently teased, NECA went ahead and made an action figure based on the Predator’s cameo appearance in 2008’s Green Lantern #24, where the Yautja warrior joined the assault on Earth. It’s part of a 2-pack with the Green Lantern, exclusive to NYCC this October.
NECA explains, “This action figure 2-pack is inspired by a classic comic book mash-up! In a 2008 story arc of the Green Lantern comic book, the already fearsome Yautja join the Sinestro Corps to attack the Earth, armed now with power rings. The set includes two brand new, 7” scale comic book based figures, both with over 30 points of articulation.”
Green Lantern features interchangeable head sculpts and comes with lamp, attachable burst effects and interchangeable hand.
The Predator features two heads, detachable backpack, interchangeable hands, sword, spear and more.
You can see more images of both figures over on NECA’s Facebook page.

In skelebration of this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Mattel has unveiled brand-new Monster High Skullector drops set to arrive over the coming months that include Halloween II‘s Michael Myers, The Nightmare Before Christmas‘s Oogie Boogie, Krampus, and more.

If you miss it, don’t worry: the trio arrives in retail stores and rolls out internationally on September 1.
With the Halloween season just around the corner, Monster High is slashing into the spirit with a new Michael Myers doll inspired by Halloween II. Michael Myers’s Monster High makeover is a nod to his hospital showdown with Laurie, complete with a red glitter spattered jumpsuit and tons of spine-chilling Easter egg accessories fans of the film will find totally to die for. Look for this slay queen to launch on August 7.
All Hallows’ Eve brings a holiday treat for fans of Tim Burton and director Henry Selick’s The Nightmare Before Christmas. The burlap sack baddie of Halloween Town gets a Monster High makeover on October 30, featuring neon green fashion with black patchwork-like stitches and a whole lot of buggy details.
The holiday horrors continue with the December 3 launch of a Monster High doll inspired by 2015’s Krampus movie. A deep red velveteen jacket, extra-long chains add eerie movement, and black knee-high boots recreate Krampus’ cloven hooves. You’ll wind up on the naughty list in style with this one.
All upcoming releases are listed on the Mattel Creations website, where fans can keep track of the releases.
