The New Gods as an FTC series

[Cymru629]

Who'd like to see this happen?
Orion, Darkseid, etc.

Especially if they use Kirby's "Super Powers" version of Mantis...


What's your thoughts on this idea?

[Brown Bear]

Only Darkseid would catch my eye. Maybe Kalibak.

[Starroid Raiders Dagon]

I would love them! Metron, Mister Miracle, Barda, Lightray, Orion (both versions!), Black Racer, Infinity-Man, Forager. I mean, c'mon, it is a no brainer!

Darksied, Orion , Big Barda and Mr. Miracle would be great in 2017 after FTC does JLA , First Appearances JSA, Titans etc.

Kirby's designs translate very well into the Mego format; they're bright, distinct, but still very classic in style. We would need a new over-muscled body for Darkseid (a 7.5 inch Lord of Apokolips would be a fiasco), but we really need that anyway for characters like Solomon Grundy and other big behemoths, so FTC would get plenty of re-use out of it. I could see Granny Goodness using the existing big body, though (with a couple appropriate...additions...to the costume to emulate that gorgeous figure of hers...).

I'd definitely buy figures from Kirby's Fourth World.

Those iconic Kirby characters would be a must have for me. Any and all characters. Granny Goodness, Desaad, Big Barda, Female Furies, Highfather, and Oberon to name a few. Who wouldn't want some Parademons for their boom tube? I know I would!

[MysteryWho]

Great idea! And yes, it would give ftc a further reason to build a body that would suit Darkseid, Kalibak, etc.
Heck, we could all use one just to make a proper-sized Hulk! Or Bigfoot, you name it!
Even if FTC recreated the 9 inch bodies it might work for this purpose, no?

[madmarva]

It would be awesome.

Wave 1:Darkseid, Desaad, Big Barda and Mr. Miracle
Wave 2: Highfather, Orion, Kalibak and Metron
Wave 3: Lightray, Steppinwolf, Forager, Mantis
Wave 4. Black Racer, Deep Six, Mantis, Bekka

That would be my start

Wave 2: Highfather, Orion, Kalibak and Metron
Wave 3: Lightray, Steppinwolf, Forager, Mantis
Wave 4. Black Racer, Deep Six, Mantis, Bekka

I would love these!

I'd love a new 9.5" standard body, but we really need one bulked up for guys like Grundy, Darkseid, Mongul, etc. Best of all worlds would be to get both, of course.

[rodkeith]

Count me in! Scott's right, Mego would be perfect for Kirby's bold designs.

[SpaceAgent]

Yes, these would be awesome. DC Direct did two assortments of New Gods in the Kirby style and they were very cool.

[Cymru629]

Thanks for chiming in everyone! These would be perfect for the Mego format, IMO...glad that you agree!

I'm not a huge fan of some of the Super-Power redesigns, particularly Orion. The Parademon is cool. But I'd love some FTC Kirby goodness.
