    ^Absolutely. And DM/Emce already has the tooling for child bodies. The question is, will it be worth it to tweak the molds to add that new MegoCorp neck connector (and hobbit feet)? I think so, I think LOTR has legs.

    My suggestions:

    Gandalf
    Gollum
    Frodo
    Samwise
    Gimli
    Galadriel
    Orc
    Witch-King

    That'd be a darn fine collection IMO.

      Come to think of it, 8" feet on the child body might work well for Hobbits & Gollum...

              I’d have to say that since we have seen a sculpt of Snape’s head, Mego has to be considering doing smaller bodies for children and teens for Harry Potter characters. This would open up doors for all kinds of other licenses that would be great. I’m thinking stuff like “The Goonies”, “The Sand Lot”, Tyrion Lannister, “Time Bandits” “Monster Squad”, “ The Lost Boys”, “Stranger Things”, “Willie Wonka”, etc.

                Not to sound like an ignoramus, but when did we see that sculpt?

                      Marty did an interview on YouTube with aNb Media. You see Snape at the 13:19.

                        Excellent likeness! It really captured Alan Rickman.

                          I always felt that FTC did their Harry Potter figures too early, just ahead of the HP Renaissance that took place and hasn't stopped. Missed opportunity for them.

                          I would very happily welcome Harry Potter in Wave 8. If they created a new teen and child body, that would be the icing on top!

                            I'm hoping they announce a few anime properties.
                            Looking for Green Arrow accessories, Doctor Who Sonic Screwdriver, and Japanese Popy Megos (Battle Cossack and France, Battle of the Planets, Kamen Rider, Ultraman) and World Heroes figures

                              Which ones? Just any, as long as it's anime? Quite a large genre...

                                Stan Lee's daughter filed a lawsuit against Pow!, so I hope the Stan Lee figure doesn't get cancelled. Seems like they have had some licensing issue with the 14" wave seven assortment, and it didn't get released. I really want a better Stan figure than the one FTC made.
