    If these do well, any though of doing a full ReMego line, maybe as a KS? I missed the original 8" CA and Dr. Evil, but I am sure new ones can be made without stepping on the old ones.
    A new take on an 8" line might be a possibility, something that puts more of a modern spin on the characters.

        She looks great! I'd like to see her in Mego scale too one day.

            What, no Don. Or is that Captain Action's secret identity?

              Now I have to ask, who is Don?

                He was touted as the original Dinah Mite's boyfriend waaaaay back. They used a Superman head on a Type 1 body, and he wore a black Action Jackson turtleneck, denim pants, and sneakers. There weren't very many made, so if one comes up on Ebay, the prices are EXTREMELY high. Like 600 dollars and up.

                  Don's probably being held prisoner by Dr. Evil! That's why Dinah-Mite's all geared up to save him!
                  "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                    Cool, thanks for the info.

                    Yes, exactly, let's go with that idea

                      Just got the second worse email you can get from Kickstarter... Zica has cancelled the Adventure People Kickstarter :(

                      It was almost a year late on delivery and I probably spent more than I should have on a scale that is third/fourth on my list, at best (and I can't lie; I am looking forward to that refund), but I was hoping we were finally coming to the finish line and I was going to get a great looking Captain Action. But, no go.

                      Sorry it didn't work out, Craig.

                        This is really upsetting. All the different variations. The weapons. It all looked so cool.

                          Well that does suck...

                          <<quoting>>
                          Due to circumstances beyond my control I’ve had to make the very difficult decision to cancel the New Adventure People action figure line. As many already know, this project has been plagued with multiple production issues and has gone through three different factories. The current factory is expecting me to make compromises that would result in a final product that doesn’t meet my expectations, and I’m simply not willing to do that.

                          Starting at the end of November I will begin the process of issuing refunds to backers, starting with the higher dollar amounts. These refunds will be given via PayPal or company check.

                          I deeply apologize that this has happened and I want to thank everyone for their unbelievable patience during the time I was trying to get this project back on track. This decision does not affect the Eagle Force action figure line that I’m partnered on with Fresh Monkey Fiction. This line is still in development and on schedule for a 2nd quarter release next year.

                            I seems like this is back on track. I just got an email.

                              Out of curiosity, what is the first worst?
                              The hands that grip.
