I <3 this piece so much. It makes me giddy. Soooo many tricks to play with him.
Personally, I love the idea of loading him up with trick shot and having him let rip with a running shot triple target incapacitate from range 10 on click 2. Aw, yeah.
I would like that defense to be combat relfexes or willpower or Arrow Down the Gun Barrel, but I haven't seen Ollie use his bow as a sheild...or be stealthy and stand in the open. :laugh:
The sculpt is simple, but I like the head of the CJ Ollie. His beard had much more detail like Mike Grell where this is like Phil Hester's. I guess it's which artist you prefer.
A fabulous new dial for a much needed remake. Opening stealth protects Ollie for RCE/Emerald Archer to get max effect, and then you can push so his dial shifts to ultra-mobile mode if you get based. The blades really help discourage people from hitting him weakly, and Hail of Arrows allows for a potential 5 clicks of damage on his whole backdial if you line up the targets right. Great figure.
Great dial but Green Arrow (and this is coming from a guy who loves Green Arrow) shouldn't be owning up on 100 point figures.
Rooftop Archer is a great idea, as is Emerald Archer. However, arrow down the gun barrel is a bit...off. First of all, it isn't something he can do to the majority of ranged attacks. That works great on a gun but how is he supposed to stop Sinestro from blasting him? Also, why shapechange instead of supersenses? If he puts an arrow down the gun barrel, shouldn't they not be able to shoot at all? It's just a little nonsensical.
And then there's the whole bcf, flurry, and souped up defense at the end to remind you that he's no longer the everyman that made you like the character in the first place.
Pretty good so long as he doesn't get based. His son is more effective and cheaper points. And he doesn't have Emerald Archer on his final click like it says here (at least mine doesn't).
Um... the three targets are not a waste. You can use it to hedge your bets early on, and later HAIL OF ARROWS increases the damage dealt (possibly by +3).
Hoo hoo, Green Arrow (nearly typed Green Afro there) is great! If you need to really, really kill something from range, he's your man. I was thinking 104 Points seems pretty fanboyish for Ollie, but considering his recent martial arts training and the certain very expensive but still perfectly sensical (Hail of Arrows) elements of his dial, I can see where the points come from.
Arrow down the gun Barrel is the only power I see as a little odd (but hey when it comes to Sinestro, you could just call it Arrow Down The Power Ring! :p ) but the Incap part of it, at least, is definitely appreciated.
when i heard the news of a green arrow remake, i never thought he'd be THIS good... so what if people think he has too many special powers?? they make him awesome!! deadly piece...
