    Another thought. Will they do the female version of Action Jackson so there will be 70s clothes and accessories for the female figures again! Also maybe some updated ones!

        Yes! Do various hair colors and styles (ponytail?) and offer a "Pop Star" line of clothes. Kids love their Pop idols and wannabes. Don't forget the microphone! Money right there!
        Are there even any 8" fashion dolls nowadays? There were a lot back in the day through the 80's all across europe, mostly with the Tong body.

          I mostly buy Rood Speel supergirl dolls and do head transplants. Their bodies are sturdier, and slightly longer due to the different torso. But I'd love to see an expanded line for Dinah. Different hair colors, skin tones and above all, better outfits.

            I'd buy them.
            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...

              Nice that we finally got some word, but color me unimpressed for now.
              I don't collect Trek ( I turned all my Trek figures into Super Heroes as a kid!)
              and Action Jackson, well I have all I could want of him at the moment.
              Now if they do a different AA AJ from what has been done before, or an Asian AJ,
              or bring back Dinah-Mite and AA Dinah-Mite, I'd be on board.

              14inch seems like their trying to compete against Mattel and Hasbro with their Titan Heroes line.
              Most of those are going to be hard to beat at retail, as you can pick them up cheaply around the holidays for as
              little as $3 a figure!

              Hoping that things open up for them, and more properties in the 8inch scale appear.

And these are only 5 of 1st 20 figures! Brady Bunch, Cheers, Married with Children coming, too! I hope Marvel is still possible 14" at least. A 14" WGSH line DC and Marvel again. 14" Star Wars, too? Does Hasbro SW and Marvel licenses only go up to 12" figures? MEGO is back!
                    Most of those were done before why do them again?

                      Hey, did you guys notice that Sulu's upper body is the bigger shoulders with swivel biceps? I like it! Also I'm hopping for some variations like: Romulan Commander with more "accurate" uniform, bigger Gorn Captain, etc...

                        Please make Nurse Chapel and the Romulan Commander lady. Hope they re-do Scotty (terrible Orange facial color) and Capt.Pike with better facial color and likeness. As long as the heads are all in scale and the facial paints are not hand painted... I'll buy these in multitude. GO MEGO !!!

                          14" DC is a shock due to FTC and I expected 14" Marvel. I am a bigger DC fan and $19.99 each with my Target 15% discount I am happy. MEGO can expand Star Trek into other ST shows and movies. Love Jeannie 2 pack! I have all FTC Brady Bunch but they were not in show accurate clothes except Alice and no Mr. Brady. Maybe MEGO can correct all of this and a complete Gilligan's Island line.Cheers is a nice surprise to adult collectors. FTC also did Married with Children so I question it.Just glad MEGO is back after 35 years!

                            FTC's Married and Bradys did not reach a large audience like these will, so they may do ok.

                              I think the DC Heroes will be very popular. Trek will sell well and so will the Jeannie set, it's super cute.

                              But can't see Married, Bradys or Cheers being strong sellers.

                                I agree with everything you stated. Hopefully, they could bring back an old license like the Lone Ranger and Tonto Western set too.
