So not the perfect Gleek body but I liked the conduit pose of this Rumbler. And the actual height and scale is close to the Superfriends.

Gleek's a lot of fun, but I almost feel like the angular stylization clashes with the very realistic depictions of his handlers.

If you were to sand the edges into curves, I think you'd really have something. Less blocky.

Right now the two different lines clash, which throws them all off.

Has kind of a "bizarro gleek" look to me.

The angular design might not be 100% in keeping with the twins, but it does help separate Gleek out as being some kind of monkey instead of human. The hands are a bit too big, but it still works overall. Sometimes you've got to roll with what you've got, and that's what makes it a great set.

You know you have to make water and animal forms now, right?

I think he works for now, but he's a little too stylized to find in with your amazing Wonder Twins. I wonder if the Hobbit figures have anything that might work as a base, like Gollum?

The only part I really like is the head. I agree with the others and the weird blocky body takes away from it. Try to get one of those kiddie squashed Heroes Star Wars aliens and do the same, I bet if they made a walrusman he'd be easy to convert into fleek, or Snaggletooth or one of the other Cantina guys.

there ya go.. the one on the left almost already looks like gleek.

or maybe a nightcrawler?

It'd fit in perfectly with Brave and the Bold though
