From what I understand about the early info is that this figures will all have the ability to snap accessories onto their bodies. Maybe that's why Art's belt is missing. Or it could be that these are the rough protos. Most of them are straight repaints from one body mold, and on the Aqua-variant, you can see the traditional bats grey around the arm and leg joints.Hatter Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07129368005588749446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-78425976837745949082008-07-27T14:21:00.000-04:002008-07-27T14:21:00.000-04:00it wouldn't surprise me if that is Kanjar Ro; good...it wouldn't surprise me if that is Kanjar Ro; good eyes, Andy!<BR/><BR/>as for Aquaman's belt...that should be there, no doubt. <BR/><BR/>i'm wondering if either A)these figures are not-totally-finished prototypes, or B)like Bats, arthur's belt will be separately attached, and someone at Mattel left it back in their suitcase at the Hilton.<BR/><BR/>RAB-<BR/><BR/>yeah, the beard-switching is odd, but at least they're not making up GA's look; just going back to an older one. (its weird, those 9" mego-like dolls that came out in the late 90s did the same thing!)rob!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17556471244882205031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35995922.post-27323761065955152412008-07-27T13:52:00.000-04:002008-07-27T13:52:00.000-04:00Hey, Rob, do ya think the "alien baddie" in the pi...Hey, Rob, do ya think the "alien baddie" in the pic might be Kanjar Ro? It kinda looks like him, if he's been hittin' the 'roids sumthin fierce. <BR/><BR/>As for Artie, I like the beard too; it feels like middle ground between the classic and "pirate" Aquaman looks.<BR/><BR/>It also looks like the show designers are re-introducing the black boots to Aquaman's costume, like he had in the Filmation show. Does anybody else see that?<BR/><BR/>Plus, no yellow "A" belt?
