Wanted: Legends of the West (Empire & Excel) and other western historically-based figures. Send me an offer.
Also interested in figures based on literary characters.Comment

I was thinking that Craig could add a modernized version of the character to the adventure team. He was a folk hero and a frontiersman so I thought his concept would work well with the other characters plus it would give the team some more name recognition.Comment

Found a Remco archive - plenty of ideas here for future additions to the line, especially since you have the name (assuming you may have access to some of the old Remco in-house lines, of course).
Captain Action and Man-Tech teaming up against The Bad Guys? Slice of fried gold right there, folks!"It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."Comment

Probably the only one but I would love the McDonaldland characters in this scale.Comment

Some excellent toys on that site. They had Mantech as 1990, but they were from 84. I loved their Warlord line and the Warrior Beasts. The Warlord line has to be the most racially & ethnically diverse line for only six figures!Comment

It's what Remco would have done."It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death.

I'm always reluctant to buy new figure lines because of space and money restraints. I got to say you have hit all the right marks with me on the design of these figures Craig. If they go into production I will buy every one of them. Something I've always been interested in with figure design is to update a property but still have all the right nods to the originals. You have to make something that will stand up to today's standards but still evoke an emotion in someone to remember a time in their youth. You've done that masterfully here. The use of the same parts with different paint aps could really be useful here to differentiate the designs. One idea would be to make Jet Jungles torso all green with black sleeves, just to change it up a little from captain Action. As others have said, Ninja's would be a logical choice here as well. All one color ninja's with a small chest logo would be great in my opinion. You could give the ninja's the sword and take the gun that would normally come with him and give it to Jet Jungle to give him an additional weapon. I don't know if the stretch monster head is trademarked, but that would be a nice addition as well. Another though would be to create some short online comics to breath some life into your creations and give collectors an emotional attachment to your characters. Can't wait to see this one unfold.Comment
