    Rima the Jungle Girl

    What are the odds FTC will produce a Rima the Jungle Girl as part of their Super Friends line? I always loved the character!

    There was a BEAUTIFUL custom figure at Mego Meet this year in the auction, complete with packaging!
    I don't recall who snagged her but I'm sure you can at least see pictures.
    And, of course, I do custom re-roots if FTC doesn't come through

      Easy enough to do, made one over a year ago. It was my outfit on the Meet figure.

      Since FTC skipped Rima the Jungle Girl I thought I'd make one to round out the supporting cast of the Super Friends Wish I could straighten the hair but I couldn't Next weeks custom: I think I'll continue to ride the wave of thing FTC seems to have forgotten.

        I'd buy her as an exclusive in an instant! She'd be awesome and she fits with Apache Chief, Vulcan, and El Dorado.

        B U T ... I believe FTC has already said that they are not pursuing her.

          I saw the custom on FB! She is amazing. I think I even tagged FTC with a hint hint.
          Did they actually say they won't make her? Booo.


          I'm still waiting for Black Canary too. Preferably not with a weird open mouth face sculpt. I know it seems like a good idea because of her sonic cry, but those open mouth faces never look good, imo. I'd rather have a closed mouth face, or even a smile.

            I lost the bid on this, it was terrific.

              Couldn't the Museum do Rima as an exclusive thru FTC? It can be produced with existing parts and a really easy to make costume.

                  I'm not so sure she's available as part of the license.

                    DC used her recently in the First Wave comics in 2010 so she'd be part of the DC license with FTC. The original character is probably public domain.

                          That doesn't mean DC is offering her to their licencors, First Wave had the Spirit and Doc Savage too,

                              I get that, I figure the character is either trademarked by DC and/or she is in the public domain. The DC depiction of her might be available.
