      Ah sh*t... Now that is tragic. A freakin' great looking figure. I was looking forward to having one. I'm so sorry Craig. I know it wouldn't have happened if you could have prevented it.

        Theres nothing worse than actually seeing an amazing prototype, and then to find out its not happening. I was really looking forward to this as well. Lets hope for the best, as apparently parts of this has been tooled.

          Just go to the "How are sales going" thread and you will see the story, though you can probably guess. Ultimately they aren't enough of us to make an 8' line a success by ourselves.

              Can't help but wonder if they would have sold better in 1:6 .........
              Bugler, sound the advance.

                Maybe the fan base for Buck Rogers isn't as great as people think. Personall I can't stand the show.

                    It's possible they would have sold better but probably not enough to make the line profitable. The amount of competition along with the high standards set by companies like Hot Toys have made the 1/6 scale market very difficult to be profitable in.

                          If another company doesn't want to take the line over then yes, it will end with Buck and Tiger Man.

                            That is really too bad. This line had such promise for being big, but then the sodding economy went south and everyone suffered.

                            Craig is suffering from lack of sales, and we as collectors are suffering from lack of money.

                            I just hope that ZICA toys isn't finished altogether. It would be a real shame.

                              ZICA Toys isn't going down for the count even if the Buck Rogers line does. I've still got the female body that I plan to move forward with, plus I've got another project I'm currently working on. There's also some other stuff going on behind the scenes that could make 2012 a very interesting year for ZICA Toys.
