anyone know the release date for the new Fantastic Four movie figures?

[phil]

I was wondering if a release date has been scheduled and if it'll be as big as
the launch for the Spiderman 3 toys.
Anybody know?

I would doubt that they will be trumpeted in like Spidey 3 was.

I doubt they will make a big deal with these figures. I still can find tons of the first movie figures that are just collecting dust.......

Some time in June,.. is what the Toy mag says.

If they're as crappy as the Spidey 3 ones I hope they don't even bother.

Due to Transformers being the big launch in June I bet FF4 figures wil get nomore than a End cap of display. Thats one problem with Hasbro owning the Marvel Lic. they can choose when to release product & how much they are not gonna want any thing to compete with House brands (TF,GI-Joe) Plus as much as I liked (&Hated ) the first ff movie I think that any box office strides it makes will be short lived due to Transformers release on the 4th of July I accualy think it may blow Spiderman's numbers out of the water (Although I think the movie looks like crap but we shall see).

If Toy Biz still held the license, we would have seen Spidey 3 and FF2 figures back in March.

I'm not sure about the Transformers movie. It could blow up and be huge, or be a big flop. It's according to how attached the general public was to the look of the original toon/toys. The fact that the movie-makers barely bothered to consider those designs hurts the film with the diehards and the masses, IMHO.

Transformers is definitely not a slam dunk is it? I realise that I'm not the key demographic for the film but I could see it bombing if they offend the fan base.

Oddly enough, the Transformers club set up at a local toy show here and I could not drag my son away from their table. He was captivated.
