Top 10 Inflatables and Beach Toys for Christmas, Summer, and Beyond
What Is Miniverse?
What is it with the colour green that we see it sensationalised in popular media and the fashion industry? People even coined phrases and vocabularies after the colour green, such as green living, green blooded, green culture, and green minded. We have superheroes whose names literally have the word green in them, like Green Lantern, Green Arrow, and Green Hornet. There’s also the supervillain and nemesis to our Friendly Neighbourhood Spider-Man, the Green Goblin.
Green has long been associated with the colour of life and vegetation. Maybe it’s because most plants are green, and plants are what makes our Mother Earth alive! Environmentalists often choose to use the green colour as part of their statement.
Yet, let’s not forget, green is also seen as the symbol of envy and jealousy. Remember how Shakespeare described jealousy as the “green eyed monster.” Also, Superman’s weakness is coloured green (it’s Kryptonite for those wondering what it is).
We scoured the internet to know the most popular green characters in cartoons, on TV, and in movies. Based on our research, we came up with this top list.

Top Green DC Characters
• Green Arrow
Oliver Queen a.k.a. Green Arrow first aimed his bow and arrow in the 1940s. Just like Batman, this DC hero has no superpowers, so he relies on his mastery of archery and martial arts to fight crime and bring order to Star City. Green Arrow is made even more popular with the television series “Arrow” with actor Stephen Amell in title lead. The TV series has spun other shows starring DC superheroes like Flash and Supergirl, which fans now call as the Arrowverse.
• Green Lantern (Hal Jordan)
We put Hal Jordan’s iteration of Green Lantern in this list as he is arguably the most popular character who holds the name. From test pilot to being the first human member of the Green Lantern Corp and one of the most legendary Lanterns to ever wield a power ring, Hal is an honest man who works as a hero without fear, and is always willing to protect those in need.
Green Arrow and Green Lantern are both members of the Justice League. Check out our range of Justice League toys!
• Poison Ivy
Here’s a supervillan who thinks she’s the guardian of the greenery. Poison Ivy uses her natural pheromones to hypnotise men. Her additional ability to control the floral life around her gives Ivy an instant army of vines and plants that attack whoever is foolish enough to get in her way. Luckily, there’s a Batman to stop her!

The first time people saw Master Yoda in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, they thought he was just a cute little alien who did nothing but to teach, train, and play tricks on Luke Skywalker. Eventually, we would see him show his fighting skills and mastery of the Jedi arts in Episode II: Attack of the Clones. He was also a wise and meek leader and Grand Master of the Jedi Council.

• The Grinch
All credit goes to Dr Seuss for writing and publishing “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” in the 1950s, which gave us the cute, hairy, but grouchy character – The Grinch. He was later adapted into an animated cartoon in the 60s and was made into a live-action movie starring Jim Carrey in 2000. The latest flick was a 3D animated film released in 2018.
Green Skin Characters

Both genXers and millennials will claim they grew up watching Sesame Street during their childhood. It’s not surprising Kermit the Frog comes in our list.

• Shrek
Ogres are not supposed to be heroes – they are mostly villains in all the fairy tales we read! This notion is what Shrek shattered in his films. He may be an “ugly” ogre, but he is good and he is the hero who will save the day! What a way to teach us a lesson that goodness and heroism do not depend on physical appearance.
• Wicked Witch of the West
The 1939 movie “Wizard of Oz” was very popular and noteworthy in its time because of its use of Technicolour. It also introduced us the villainous character, the Wicked Witch of the West.
