      I just bought GO HERO!'s Buck, and I'm looking for different takes on the character.
      I'm still waiting on the factory to send me production samples of the vinyl heads, and prototypes of the clothing and accessories. I'll be sure to post pics of the vinyl heads once I have them, assuming they meet licensor approval.

        While you can't really discuss the other two licenses for legal reasons. Can you offer any hints? Are they Sci-fi in nature? Action? Television Show, Movie or Comic Book based? I would love it if it were the original "Battlestar Galactica" and maybe original "V"! I wouldn't complain about "Magnum PI", "The A-Team" or Disney's "The Black Hole" either however! Something else that would be cool is something based on the works of Jules Verne, HG Wells, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, HP Lovecraft, Robert E Howard or Edgar Rice Burroughs would be awesome as well!

          One of them is The Midnight Men web comic which I've mentioned before so the cat is pretty much out of the bag on that one. The other is based on a science fiction property but everything is still very hush hush on that one.

          Just to offer a small update on the Buck Rogers figures, I received painted 1/9 scale head samples and they look fantastic! If the level of quality I'm seeing in the samples can carry over to the production pieces I think people will be very impressed. I'm still waiting on samples of the accessories and clothing which I'll hopefully have soon. Unfortunately I can't share any pictures because the licensor doesn't want anything else shown until completed production samples are ready.

            Is the release date for the Buck figures still going to be June?
            If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

              Unfortunately no, they won't make the June release date. The last update I got from the factory was that they expected to have the figures ship around the second week of July.

                  The bodies are in production now and will be shipping around the end of this month. The good news is that they're being shipped via air mail so I should have them in hand fairly soon after they leave the factory.

                    HOT DOG! I guess that this means a trip to Pearl Paint is in order for me. I have to paint the two Bruce Lee heads that I got from Jessica for at least two of the bodies.

                        The original SRP on the Buck Rogers figures was $24.99 but due to higher than expected production costs that price has now been raised to $29.99. The SRP on the Z-Bodies is $10.00.
