The "What should Castaway Do Next" Thread. (sorry Dave)
The "What should Castaway Do Next" Thread. (sorry Dave)
Well, you knew it was bound to happen! So let if fly! What do you guys think the next Castaway figure after Phantom should be?
I for one would LOVE to see Kolchak The Night Stalker!
They should stick with some "old time" heros to go with the Phantom and Captain Action.....
Green Hornet and Kato
Lone Ranger
Zorro
Flash Gordon
The Shadow
Lo there do I see my Father.
Lo there do I see my Mother and my Sisters and my Brothers.
Lo there do I see the line of my people back to the begining.
Lo they do call me.
They bid me take my place among them.
In the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.
I like the idea of Dick Tracy too. He could have a villain or two with him like Capt Action and Phantom. Heck, Kochack could have a monster with him(plug)
Dick Tracy would be good. Mandrake the magician also comes to mind.
Maybe some of those real old west heros like Kit Carson or one of those old time space heros from the 50s. Tom Corbit Radar men on the moon, Space Ranger type deal.
What about just old time TV charecters like Capt Kangaroo, Bozo. What about some old time horror hosts?????

Funny How Mandrake just popped into my head its been ages since I read the comic. So After I posted here I googled it. Ya know theres a movie in progress for Mandrake. Criss Angel from mind freak is doing it.
Digging a little deeper it seems Mandrake is credited as one of the first costumed super heros predating superman and the Phantom. Guess they based him on a real magician Leon Mandrake

Sorry? Put your sorries in a sack mister... Nobody likes this game more than me
Kolchak is a natch for several reasons: Very 70's pop culture, one main central character, Moonstone publishes a comic every month.... It's a horror/pop culture/TV combo and NEVER been done before... Not too mention it's relatively simple in design and easy to produce. Having said all that, we still have several thousand reasons to weigh before making a decision (BTW they are mostly green and all have a little picture of George Washington on them)...
Input from you guys is always appreciated and it's just fun to think about figures we'd all like to see... So by all means let's hear it! Like Lionel Ritchie... I can play this all night long..
Lone Ranger / Tonto
Doc Savage
The shadow
Zorro
Green Hornet / Kato
Frazetta's "Death Dealer" very conan like but cooler looking.
Eastwoods(Lione) "Man with no name"
“When you say “It’s hard”, it actually means “I’m not strong enough to fight for it”. Stop saying its hard. Think positive!”
Doc Savage - Man of Bronze would be good.
The Shadow
Doc Savage... Another hit on my parade... Never been done, very comic/pop icon and yet so overlooked. For the same reasons as Kolchak, Doc Savage is one to really think about...
