      This morning I'm really wanting to see Johnny Quest or Scooby Doo show up Friday.

      Wonder Woman is always at the top of my list. I do really like the way they did her costume for the Super Friends line and look forward to more variations on this. I'm still hoping they do metallic golden eagle or WW symbols at some point. The silver turned out really well on Cyborg so I can't see it not being an option.

      Also really wanting to see the First Appearance Wonder Woman (reuse Wonder Girl costume) along with a FA Superman (Super Friends Superman costume with blue boots and new symbol). Supergirl would be the next logical low hanging fruit. This line could hold a lot of joy for me.

        Now this is brilliant, I'd be all in- counter display a must! Box windows, what has taken so long?

            Seeing as how BifBangPow recently did 8" retros of many of these ... not likely.

              Those were very badly made, from what I saw of the Athena figure. The complexions were waxy looking; there was no real resemblance to that of the actors, and they were too far spaced out for people to maintain interest.

              If they could get the Doctor Who license and do a better job of the Doctors, THEN I'd be interested.

              BUT, they'd have to do ALL of the Doctors, with at least one companion.

              First Doctor and Susan.

              Second Doctor and Jamie in a kilt.

              Third Doctor and Jo Grant.

              Fourth Doctor with either Leela or Sarah Jane.

              Fifth Doctor with either Tegan, Nyssa, or Turlough. Adric was a complete turn off for me.

              Sixth Doctor with Peri.

              Seventh Doctor with Ace.

              Eighth Doctor with Grace.

              War Doctor

              Ninth Doctor with Rose.

              Tenth Doctor with either Martha or Donna.

              Eleventh Doctor with Amy or Clara.

              Twelfth Doctor with his new Companion.

              The Master in all his regenerations.

              Daleks.

              Cybermen.

              K-9

              The Brigadier.

              The Slitheen.

              Mickey Smith.

              Jackie Tyler.

              Pete Tyler.

              The heads of the female figures MUST be in the proper scale, as well as the clothing!

              Get rid of the wretched rubber bands!

                [QUOTE=JediJaida;1307049]Those were very badly made, from what I saw of the Athena figure.] I would not characterize anything by BBP as "very badly made"--particularly in comparison to general FTC releases. Are you generalizing from Athena?

                [ The complexions were waxy looking] True, and sometimes over-scaled.

                [ there was no real resemblance to that of the actors] The vinyl color works against the sculpts, dyeing them to be more "tan" reveals good likenesses. BBP's Venture And TZ lines are spot-on, as well as most SMDM and Dr. Who sculpts. The soft goods were great, too.


                [they were too far spaced out for people to maintain interest.] Possibly. But I'd take slower releases any day over rushed sculpts and even misshaped heads.

                Again, just my opinion.

                  I only collected the Battlestar figures so I can't comment on the quality of any other of BBP's remegos.

                  I had a lot of bad luck with the Battlestar figures. Stuff like big heads or ill fitting cloths isn't a deal breaker for me. It happens. The biggest problems I had is half of them broke right out of the package. Another issue I had was the Cylons were bricks. The design of the armor blocked all articulation except the elbows. I tried repairing them and customizing them. But in the end just ended up with a bunch of broken parts.
                  You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                        I'd love to see a "pulp" series wave, with:

                        -Doc Savage
                        -The Shadow
                        -The Avenger
                        -The Spider

                          Yeah I didn't include the Spider or the Avenger on my list, error on my part, but I would want them. Btw Doc would have to include his aides and Pat. A Margo for the Shadow would be cool too. The Phantom because I've missed out on all the Phantom stuff before. How about generic horses too. How about Prince Valiant?

                                Warlord would be fun and would allow for the re-use of some accessory tooling.
