OK, I decided to start this thread to get NECA/Wizkids attention.
I have tried very hard to create Green Lantern Corps teams in the modern age and while not next to impossible, it IS very limited!
I am starting a petition to get some more Green Lantern Corps members made into heroclix. We need some cheaper corps members to help round out teams and fill in space. I'm not a big fan of only playing two lanterns in a 300 point game because there is no other option.
So let's get some Green Lantern Corps Grunts in the next set.
Some cheap 50-75 point rookie GL aliens that can act as generics.
Then throw in a Drill Sargeant Kilowog to lead them and maybe give them a boost in combat.
Aside from that maybe give us a new John Stewart, an Alpha Lantern, Ganthet as a GL, and a new Guy Gardner. Now I am not asking for all of this to be in the next set, but I'd like to have a nice range of characters to choose from sooner than later (at least as much as the Sinestro Corps has).
Aside from that, it WOULD be great to see Atrocitus, Larfleez, Carol Ferris (as a Star Sapphire), Saint Walker, and Indigo 1 in the next set. Hopefully at least one supporting lantern from each group will also appear in the enxt set or the set after.
Please chime in if you agree!!!! I'm not asking for a whole set, just a subset theme featuring 10-12 slots.
I love your idea for Corpsmen generics. However if your looking to include more then three pieces in a 300 point GLC Team, try Ch'p, Tomar Re and Arisa in unrestricted play for 296 or G'Nort, Abin Sur and Katma Tui for 296 or Katma Tui, Ch'p and E Green Lantern (Hal) from Unleashed for 296.
There are a few options to fit three characters into a 300 point game, although it would have to be unrestricted and not all the GLC keyworded pieces carry the TA.
And what about battle packs in J. Hex style? (i mean with new figs).
I dont think they can put like 20 lanterns on DC 75th or on the Supes base set but what about battle packs with 3 lanterns for same corp each?. Something like:
RL pack
Atrocitus
Laira
Dex-Starr
OL pack
Larfleeze
Generic OL
Generic OL
YL pack
Mongul jr
Romat-Ru
Kryb
Blue L pack
Saint Walker
Brother Warth
Generic B. lantern? Brother Him?
I. Tribe pack
Indigo-1
Munk
Generic indigo tribe
Star saphires
Carol Ferris
Fatality
Miri Riam
Black L pack
Scar
choise a zombie
choise a zombie
GL Pack
Kilowog
Jhon Stwart
Salaak
GL alpha pack! (just dreaming XD)
Boodikka
Green Man
Chaselon
I would buy these. Although I would sub out Laira for Guy Gardner in the Red Lantern pack and I would like to see two different Black Lantern packs (one set Scar, Nekron, Black Hand - ie The masterminds behind Blackest Night, and one set Deadman, Aquaman, Firestorm - ie the un-clicked Black Lanterns that made all the posters and cover art).
The nice thing with these sets is they could keep releasing them in figures of three and never run out of characters nor tie up slots suited for more well known characters in the regular sets.

And that right there IS the problem.
Our venue does not do golden age so its unretired pieces or nothing.

I, Scholarly Roach, do heartily endorse the above statement. If they could squeeze the above into the next 3 or so DC sets, I would be well-pleased. Some of these characters would be completely appropriate in the DC75 set.

RL pack
Atrocitus
Laira
Dex-Starr
OL pack
Larfleeze
Generic OL

Saint Walker
Brother Warth

...
Now that's a great idea! For Blue Lanterns, either Sister Sercy or brother Hynn would make good 3rd choices. Now if they actually make a Red Lantern Pack with Atrocitus, Laira and Dex-Starr, that would be amazing...
I would agree to this type of a set. But I wouldnt make to many generics Green Lanterns. Maybe 3-6 total and have them represent the recruits that are just joining the Corps.
As far as named heroclix goes we do need remade.
KILOWOG
JOHN STEWART
Arisia - Favorite alien member
Ganthet - But as a Green Lantern not a Guardian
Guy Gardner- His SR sucks
Make some new Green Lanterns.
Sorinik Natu
Sodam Yat
Boodika - Prefer regular version but also would like an Alpha version
Salaak
I also do TOTALLY agree. No more Hal's or Kyle's. At least until all versions we have are retired.
Because getting more lanterns, probably "named" ones at least, of various colors is all but certain to happen.
{my fear is that the DC75 set, instead of celebrating the length & breadth of the DCU through the decades will get/already is clogged up in very recent stuff}
Afterall, it's not like you're petitioning for obscure/niche things like Bi-Beast, or Shining Knight II.
And in fact they've practically even hinted at Larfleeze in one of those snapshots of the desk....
So if you must petition for things, stop wasting effort on the obvious & help the obscure characters get clixed.
Rot Lop Fan and Jack T. chance are Relatively Obscure....
Though I'm For obscure-er characters as well.SPACE TURNIP IN WoS MAKEMINE MARVEL>
though honestly if it was for an extremely obscure character I don't think it'd go over as well because people would say its stupid. Like the Toxin Thread.
Hmmm maybe I Should make a COndiment King Thread

What's wrong with Guy, Hal (Judge exclusive Starro) and Sinestro at 399 points? How about 397 points of Hal, Hal and Hal (JL - Starro event handout, Crisis and BN).
There are 17 variations that will allow you to build a 400 point theme team ranging between 343 and 399 points and 18 that will let you build a 300 point theme team between 210 and 297 points. at the 1 figure per 150 points, this give you lots of options (assuming you have access to all the current Green Lantern Corps keyworded figs.

That was my idea. Maybe 2 generic alien members of the corps that are the new recruits or "grunts". They can get a special power that allows them to work better with Kilowog on the board (since he was until recently the drill sargeant of the corps and would order them what to do like he did in Blackest Night and Sinestro Corps War).
The others you listed are pretty much the few I'd be happy with if they made more of them.
Though I have been itching for Chaselon as well (because I'd like to see other corps members that don't have the bipedal humanoid look).
And Larfleez, I was thinking he would have something like the starlings or angry spirits from the Starro figure and Spectre figure. He is good on his own and a threat but unleash those constructs and its even worse!

Honestly, I'd be a bit salty if they don't make him soon. Every clix petition thread should be peppered with requests for Condiment King. I know Wizkids is always going to be playing ketchup with the new comic storylines coming out but some characters are too important to be left out that some players like myself would relish using and I think they should lettuce have the opportunity to do so.
