    Very cool. Look forward to it.

        The only prototype being made at this time is of Captain Action.

          I would considering buying CA figures if they were done in 8" scale (it's always been the perfect scale to me...at least for playability).

            Silver Streak and updated Captain Action render from comic con.

            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...

              Love the Silver Streak, but wish the figure looked more retro.

                I am not a 3-3/4" fan, but the one line I did love at that scale were my G.I. Joes:RAH back in the 80s. And I like Captain Action, so I will probably jump on Wave 1.

                Here is ORIGINAL ZICA CA digital rendering and the NEW RENDERING for those that want to compare. I would be happy with either.

                  Jaw dropping. Excellent work. Outstanding.
                  If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                    Hi Craig - love the Silver Streak! Are you working with Boss Fight on all the figures? Any pre-order or release date info?

                    Anything else in the works? Everything you've put out is far superior to some of the stuff I'm seeing at SDCC.

                      Glad to see he has swivel elbows now. If the sculpt doesn't have a bicep swivel, a swivel elbow is absolutely necessary. Looks great!

                        I completely missed the new elbows! And I was really trying to find the differences between the two. The original was supposed to have swivel biceps, but I think the elbows will work better at this scale.

                          Agreed. Hasbro's Joe's have really got that same articulation formula nailed down and it seems to work pretty well.

                            Looks very nice. What about pricing?

                              I'm hoping to keep the figures in the $12.00 range. At this point I have no idea what the price of the Silver Streak will be. The prototype needs to be finished before I can start getting production quotes from China.
                              There you go!

                                Thought I would post the new images here just to be official.

                                The Captain Action sculpt is all new and has replaced the previous one shown before. The line will now have a modern design and the scale has been changed from 3.75" to 4" which will help it fit in better with the current crop of modern action figures.
