                    i have one complaint/suggesstion...literally,just one...for future releases,i think it would be best to have all boots/shoes/general footwear be plastic pieces...i simply cannot get Tiger Man to stand,at all,no matter which way i position him...even though you put plastic soles on the bottom of the cloth boots,i still can't do it ( i had him leaning against the wall for all the pics i took)...Buck has the plastic shoes,and he stands just fine for me...

                      if we get the 2 Series scheduled worth of figures ( Buck,Tiger Man,Kane,Draconian,Hawk, Wilma,Twikki,Ardala,Vorvon) I'll be more than happy...of course,we need Dr. Huer too,but if we can at least get the main season 1 cast (and the only really worthwhile new character in Season 2 - Hawk ) ,then i'll be more than satisfied....

                      of course,i really want everyone...but i'm trying to be realistic..

                        That was actually a design flaw that should never have happened. The factory was told repeatedly to use hard plastic for the soles of the soft boots and for whatever reason it didn't happen. The softer material allows for the soles to curve which makes it difficult to stand the figure. This problem will not be an issue with the Draconian guard soft boots.

                        The actual screen used boots for both Tiger Man and the Draconian guards were made of a soft material which is why I chose to do it that way with the figures.

                        You might want to consider getting a stand for them. This is what I'm using to display mine.

                          Same here...I will be totally content if we get both series 1 and 2....if they do more,it will be a bonus...I will be dissapointed if we dont get the 10 scheduled though...this line and characters are too cool! so I hope everybody supports this line! I am in for 2 of each! so I'll do my part

                            okay,i got more questions ( you guys will get sick of me soon enough! LOL!)

                            - do you have all likeness rights with this property? like (god -willing) ,you get to the point where you want to make an Admiral Asimov,or Michael Ansar Kane, do you have to negotiate with the actor's or their estates,or are theos rights locked up with the master licence?

                            - could Crichton feasibly be possible?

                              also just wanted to say THANK YOU Craig! this series,for as short-lived as it was,was such an integral part of my childhood, from seeing the movie in theaters to watching the show on NBC,to countless watchings of the episodes in syndication in the mid to late 80's... and to have these,have actual quality Buck Rogers figures...it literally is a dream come true for me to own these,and defines my "grail" as it's something i never,EVER thought would happen!

                              P.S. looks like i'll be buying another set!! my son (who's 7 ) is starting to take an interest in the show a bit (been watching the DVD set recently) ,and when he saw the figures,it definitely got his interest up! so i'm thinking another set is coming my way for him next week (when i get paid again)...

                              he did have a message for you Craig - he loves Twiki,and he wants a Twiki,or he's not going to be happy! ( an exact quote)
