I like that you can also pick the order you play the dials [with d/e always being last as the detach]. Means there are two ways to play the ones I bolded and SIX ways to play the bold, underlined, italicized ones!

Well Red Lantern Razer can do constructs, unfortunely they are not doing a clix of him; nor Aya. Yes, he is from the Animated series, but still.
All of the Red Lanterns could do constructs in tAS. While they were all still perpetually angry, they could still think rationally enough to plan.

I assume that you could set up a special even where you have a bunch of people whose teams total 2600 points all go against him. You could just do it as two sides, with everyone making choices for their own characters (with 26 actions available, there should be no lack of action tokens unless one guy brings an entire army).
And, they don't seem to need to have a Blue Lantern around to have their rings removed. Razer didn't die.
You'd have parents nationwide up in arms - even those who didn't watch TaS - if redeeming a Red Lantern on an animated show involved character death.
I'm not saying the TaS should only have been for kids - Clone Wars and Transformers Prime both did excellent jobs of balancing a "kid-style" animation look and very deep subject matter w/o being overly graphic. But Green Lantern's air time often seemed aimed at kids.
(I'm just impressed they had the Red Lanterns in TaS. I have to assume they weren't using their trademark plasma blood vomit attack ...?)
I'll tip my hat to Wizkids AFA the Corps-specific SPs/ring-granted powers. They're generally on-target for the emotional spectrum involved (Fear reducing combat values, Will overcoming Outwit/Perplex, Hope increasing combat values, etc.).
Hopes for Wave 2:
* Dex-Starr's character card looks promising. I just hope he has 5 clicks (the cat took a hit from Midnighter and survived, so he shouldn't be too short-dialed).
* I know GL rings don't usually permit healing others, but Soranik should have regular yellow Support somewhere on her dial, with a decent AV and damage value on those clicks. She's an excellent surgeon.
* Similarly, a back-dial bit of Support for Simon Baz would be appropriate.
* Saarek: GL with gobs of Mind Control and maybe PB? Might be interesting, a telepathic Lantern ...
* I have to admit, though, they could've slipped B'dg in where Saarek is, and I'd have been happier. Nothing against Saarek, but squirrel + GL ring = IMHO.
(I have Ch'p from the GL Corps box set, but it's not quite the same.)
* Kilowog: I'm hoping he's got a drill sergeant SP that's less brutal than Arkillo's (Arkillo's was accurate for him, but the GLs aren't about savaging their recruits). I also want him to be a close-combat beast.
* Salaak: I would love for him to have some kind of nod to Brilliant Tactician, just limited to the GL Corps keyword. (And maybe Flurry, but he's not the close-combat type, really.)

They did spew red breath, usually it would take a opponent out (like Razer did to Atrocitus) or kill (Atrocitus spew red breath at Hal Jordan and Ghia'ta got in the way, it killed her).
Salu Digby as LeVIathan in clix!

Wow. Thanks for the info.
The Reds sound like they'll be especially competitive, then, in matches, as long as they don't get shot to pieces by ranged attackers.
So, what's everyone's most anticipated dial to see that we haven't yet? Mine's a tie between Kyle's Green Lantern prize dial and Guy's Red Lantern dial.

I am rather interested in seeing John Stewart's dial, Green Lantern Kyle's dial, Sodam Yat's dial and Salaak's dial.

For me, it's Kilowog in first place, followed by Soranik in second and Black Hand in third (Geoff Johns managed to make him disturbingly threatening in the run-up to Blackest Night, so his 200-point version should be powerful).
The 'Wog is, IMHO, an essential part of the Corps' canon, while Soranik was a well-written female character. (I've not kept up enough with the GL books in the post-Flashpoint era to be quite sure how she's doing now.)
Honorable mention goes to Dex-Starr, but we've got his character card, so I didn't feel quite comfortable saying he's unrevealed. Six of one, half-dozen of another, so to speak.
Speaking up for the Big Poozer. I'm definitely excited to see them all, especially the UnClixed or 'only been movie-clixed', but Kilowog easily pushes out the others for my personal 'MUST KNOW!' factor.
If the dial does nothing more than update the original Kilowog dial with the better aspects of the movie versions and gives him pink powers [specifically Empower, but hoping for Invincible], I'll be content. If the new figure instead does more new and exciting things, I'll be happy. If the dial isn't even mediocre and/or he doesn't have the JLI keyword, you are going to hear about Red Lantern Superboy Prime holding certain members of WizKids hostage until an erreta happens.
