    How about Wizard of OZ repros?

    Now that would be cool.
    I always thought the mego wizard of oz toys were wilder for some reason.
    I imagine we would get added characters like the flying monkey creatures.

    That would be insane. These figures are ALL still very attainable at a reasonable price. Also, I don't believe they sold all that well when mego sold them so what makes you think they would sell better 30 years later.

      ^ Very true...you can usually grab them BOXED on ebay for a very low price.
      Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!

        Actually they sold very well initially, but they were not popular with the boys.

        You find them mint in box a lot because they were bought by adult fans of
        the movie.

        There are a lot of characters I would like to make before I make WOZ.

          Yeah, WOZ is cool and all, but I do not think that it would do all that great sale wise when one can buy the originals at very reasonable prices still to this day. I would like to have a flying monkey though. That would be cool. Someone here did a custom flying monkey some time ago and it was totally awesome.

            I for one am all for that. I hope that EMCE makes some super cool new releases.

                LOL! I was gonna say you'll probably pay more for the repros then the originals

                  EMCE will have jumped the shark long before they repro WOZ (or at least I'd hope so).

                      It might happen. Yeah, and monkeys might fly out of my butt.

                        This can't be a Serious thread,.. can it ?
                        With all the 5to10 buck Oz figures out there these days...
                        But the idea of a Witch Soldier Dude,.. & a Flying Monkey do sound neat.

                          Kirk, Spock and the Klingon are easy to get, too. Doc's doing ok with those repros.
