Following recent announcements expanding the Emerald Warriors’ ranks, toy collectors and Green Lantern fans have been eagerly awaiting official word on one of the most iconic characters in the Corps’ history. McFarlane Toys has officially confirmed that the upcoming McFarlane Toys Sinestro Green Lantern pre-order will launch on September 10th at select online retailers.
This update gives collectors an exact date to set their alarms for, ensuring they do not miss out on adding Korugar’s most controversial ring-slinger to their 7-inch scale action figure displays.
A Classic Take on Korugar’s Greatest Guardian
Before he founded the Sinestro Corps and harnessed the yellow light of fear, Thaal Sinestro was hailed as the greatest of all Green Lanterns. Assigned to Sector 1417, his ruthless dedication to order made his space sector the safest in the galaxy, though his iron-fisted methods eventually led to his corruption and banishment by the Guardians of the Universe.
This figure showcases Sinestro during his legendary era wearing the classic green-and-black uniform of the Green Lantern Corps. While previous iterations in the McFarlane Collector Edition line focused on his villainous Sinestro Corps War appearance, this release revisits his hero-turned-antihero origins.
What Collectors Can Expect
While full packaging shots and official accessory breakdowns will be fully revealed as the date approaches, collectors can anticipate the standard high quality of the 7-inch scale line:
- Ultra Articulation: Built with up to 22 moving parts for full poseability and dynamic display options.
- Detailed Sculpting: Accurate suit textures highlighting his classic Green Lantern emblem and distinctive alien portrait.
- Character Accessories: Possibly to include a Green Lantern Power Battery and translucent energy constructs.
- Collectible Card: Standard collectible art card featuring character artwork on the front and a biography on the back.

The McFarlane Toys Sinestro Green Lantern pre-order goes live on September 10th. McFarlane pre-orders typically launch at 12:00 PM EST (9:00 AM PST). You will be able to lock in your orders at major online collectible outlets.
