It's day 3 of GL Wave 2 week, DCUC 2011 month here on Toy a Day. Yes, it's a Wednesday and I'm opening what's supposedly a movie figure named G'Hu? I think this is a throwaway figure at long time fans, but I'm not one of them.
He comes on the standard green Green Lantern wave card. It's getting a tad boring by now. The pose in the blister does show off some of the details of his amazing sculpt.
There's a starburst on the card stating that it's a "Sneak Peek Movie Figure!". I still don't recall seeing him in the movie, but perhaps he only had a cameo.
G'Hu comes with Stel's other hand, but like most DCUC figures, does not have any accessories. He does not have the standard DCUC sculpt though, and I think he's a completely new sculpt. His legs are a pair of trident claws, and the knee articulation aren't bendy hinges, but are twisty hole and pegs instead.
The head sculpt is amazing with all sorts of scary exoskeleton-y details. The paintwork on there has been carefully chosen to give it that insect sheen. The forearms are a pair of appendages that looks like collars, but is really a pair of legs that look like a mantis' forearms. The plus is that it is even articulated!
The braided plastic hair looks great and reminds me of a Predator character. The hair is made from very rubbery plastic and doesn't really hinder the neck articulation.
He's a bit odd, but he does bring a lot of alienness into the otherwise humanoid GL Corps. And my Corps display grows by another one.

G'Hu is a relatively new GL character, if I'm not mistaken. He appeared in the scene were Sinestro led a squad of his "finest lanterns" against Parallax.
