In the council scene, there's Green Lantern minifig - as far as I know, Lego has never officially released such a figure; generally they're released by AFOLs as customs. Interestingly, the best of the custom GL's I've seen look *exactly* like that one.
So I wonder if A) I've been terribly mistaken, and there's a GL minifig available officially, B) they're tipping their hat to the burgeoning customs community like BrickArms and Big Ben Bricks or even C) they like the custom design so much that they're *planning* a release but haven't actually done it yet.
Also, the mermaid on my desk seems pleased to be a movie star. (She's from Series 9)
EDIT:
Goddammit. There *IS* an official GL minifig, released in 2011 as a comic-con exclusive. they go for about 270 bucks. Mr. Gold still goes for three times that, though.
ANOTHER EDIT: it's weird that he goes for a third of what Mr. Gold goes for, when he's three times as rare. But go figure.
