Out of all the villains in this series, I'd have to say that Sinestro is my favourite, especially with the Silver Age callback.
As for the minifigures we do get in this wave, they aren't bad looking at all. Some of them are highly detailed but some are pretty plain but accurate to the source materials.
If you're a DC fan, then you're definitely going to want to pick up this entire series, as it will be a quick and easy way to add some really cool comics history to your minifigure collection. I can only imagine that Marvel fans are already salivating at the thought of a similar series for them. Personally, I've still got dreams of a Star Wars series, as unlikely as that is. Nevertheless, although I'm not particularly a DC fan, I've found these minifigures to be exceptionally interesting and awesome.
The DC universe has a nice mix of characters, but they certainly aren't as varied as Marvel's. Although there are some nice characters here, I can't help but feel another DC series was a little unnecessary. Sure it has given us some nice new elements, but I doubt they will have much use beyond the characters here, apart from appearing in future DC sets.
Pink is undoubtedly an appropriate skin tone for Sinestro and the double-sided head looks excellent, featuring two different smiles and arched eyebrows, along with the obligatory moustache. However, I am less satisfied with the black hair piece which fails to replicate Sinestro's enlarged cranium and his pointed ears. A new element would have been ideal.
Ultimately, 71026 DC Super Heroes Collectible Minifigures is a series to be enjoyed, be that for its contents, the new trans-clear piece alone (it really is rather good) or for the simple fact that this sort of risk can be and is taken by the LEGO Group in 2019.
