What properties does AGE still own? Just Dragonflyz? Doesn't Hasbro also own Visionaries now?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...Comment

I am very excited to hear Mego is returning. I only hope it involves 8 inch Marvel, Planet of the Apes and Star Trek. There are other properties I would like to see them tackle but there still needs to be reissues and additions to those three yet.Comment

Wonder if they will add vehicles and playsets to the list?Comment

OK...it looks like Takara bought some rights back. Did not know that. So that must be how Hasbro ended up with Micronauts. I thought it was still sub-licensed by Abrams. And Bruckheimer bailed years ago, too. wow. I really passed on micronauts ip.
...maybe there is hope for a Marvel line. It would take a guy like Abrams to get Hasbro to negotiate and after the RA/Matty/DC/FTC blindside, I got to believe Doc would stay in pursuit.Last edited by hedrap; Apr 20, '18, 9:11 PM.Comment

Honestly, the only things that could get me excited are Mego getting the Marvel license for 8" figures and/or the announcement of new bandless bodies, including a new female bandless body. I like the Type S body, but there is a jutting hip issue with them. And a new, better bandless female body would have me junking most of, if not all of, my FTC female bodies.
Star Trek TOS would be interesting, but what's left besides the two females that EMCE Toys and DST never made? Would repros we already got from EMCEE & DST really sell? TNG would be interesting, but Mego for me was also DC and Marvel.
Oh, Pocket Heroes would get me excited, but it seems that scale for DC is tied up with Funko.
Ah, it's all speculation right now anyway!...Comment

I highly doubt Hasbro (who owns Wizards of the Coast who makes D&D) would license anything D&D out to another toy maker unless it's somethingthey have no interest in producing themselves (like the miniatures for the game which they ended up losing money on making and licensed out to Wizkids).

while 8" scale would be nice, do you really think it would sell at mass merchandise level? the RA line failed. okay there were issues with the bodies and distribution, but really we are a niche group of collectorsComment

Are we finally getting that Grease line they promised along with the car?Check out my website: Megozine Covers - HomeComment

I'm hoping they bring back the Action Stallion.... it's a must if Doc and Marty plan on my long hoped for, tongue planted firmly in cheek, F-Troop line!"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

Do you think that there is any room for a Game of Thrones line in 8 inches? It's a hot property right now.JediJaidaComment
