    I know you've got a lot on your plate with CA and SMDM series 2 all in development right now. I'm just really excited about the prospects of this line!
    I'm hoping to have something to show on the Captain Action figure within the next day or so.

    What will be released first Captain Action or SMDM Wave 2? Will we see Action Jackson make the jump to 3 3/4 as well?

    Thanks!
    Assuming preorders are where they need to be the SMDM Wave 2 figures will be released first. Yes, a 3.75" Action Jackson line is being considered.

        Here's the first teaser image of the digital sculpt for Captain Action. The design I decided to go with is basically the same as 80's vintage G.I. Joes but with modern articulation features thrown in the mix. The arms swivel above the bicep/triceps section, the elbows and knees are double jointed and the hands can turn.

          Very Nice Captain Action. It would be cool to sell these in different colors without the head. Then you could make different hero's out of them.

              There's a 12" Artic CA that'd be an easy repaint.

                Thanks Jason! There's a very good chance that Action Jackson will be done in this scale and style, so what you've suggested might be a possibility.

                Yep, I know Odds are it will be an exclusive figure.

                  Make a hero head like the old castaway head. Then people could do a create your own hero and build about a zillion different characters.

                    Sounds like a good idea!

                      I'm all aboard for this. Can't wait to see variations and Dr. Evil, Action Boy and Lady Action.

                          These are awesome Craig. Let's just do all future 3 3/4" lines in this format! Lol ... I love the SMDM line as it is too, but maybe more people would be receptive to more articulated figures. I'd love to see V, Buck Rogers and Battlestar Galactica follow this Captain Action format. Oh and Flash Gordon too.
