    I can't wait for these. Just hope they aren't outrageously priced, because I want them all.

      I'm glad to hear they're making them out of a different material so they wont dry rot after a few years.

          Interesting...I've seen many that were even still on the cards in terrible shape. Must depend on the climate. Heat and humidity is not good for foam rubber.

              I never owned a Madball, but I really dug that 4 issue run that Marvel comics put out. It was just so dumb and weird.

                I had a couple of the action figures with the firing heads. I really love the designs and a lot of the graphic work that has shown up over the years for Madballs but I would like to have mini versions with the same amount of detail.

                        These are up for preorder now. Way too expensive, but I loved these so much as a kid, I couldn't resist picking up a set. http://mondotees.com/collections/mad...eid=548248d9a7

                          Had a few of these in my childhood. Man, you're right, the cost is way too expensive. Folks could probably find a set at a flea market for much less and in good shape for the cost of one new repro.

                            Now that I have these in hand . . . finally, I have to say that I think the price is justified. The detail in these new sculpts is fantastic, and the paint apps are some of the best I've seen recently on a mass-produced collectible. Everything is very clean, and the colors and shading are excellent. Anyone else get a set in recently? I'd love to hear what you all think.
