Duo attack allows you to make close combat attacks as well as ranged. So one could running shot and then make a pair of close combat attacks almost like (but not exactly like) charge. Is that right?

Since they get to use Duo Attack instead of a ranged combat action, they could indeed as long as the second close combat attack is against a second opposing character. Nice catch!

Due to the way it's worded, "Hal Jordan and Sinestro can use Running Shot. When they do, they can use the Duo Attack ability instead of a ranged combat action..." isn't it actually saying that instead of using a ranged combat action (Energy Explosion, Pulse Wave, etc.) with your running shot, you can only replace it with 2 normal attacks? And since they don't have sharpshooter, wouldn't they both have to be 2 normal ranged attacks?
I don't think either attack would generate an energy explosion. Duo attack is activated by a power action and you can only use energy explosion when the character is given a ranged combat action.

Because with so many Hal and Sinestro figures, WizKids decided that choosing to play them together should allow you Merge/Split Shenanigans! And clearly a missed opportunity to give a single figure two Construct slots! :p Kidding asside, straightforward but great figure that captures their potential, so it's hard to begrudge the one restriction they do have (must at least alternate power chosen for Imagination). I look forward to getting pounded by this beast with two backs! Okay, so I couldn't resist the shipping/slash-fic joke, sue me.
