Bif Bang Pow! is thrilled to return to Mongo, working on new Flash Gordon action figures and collectibles to add to its ever-expanding lineup of iconic branded products. Bif Bang Pow! will debut the first-ever line of 3 3/4-inch movie action figures to include Flash Gordon, the dreaded Ming the Merciless, Dale Arden, Prince Baron, Dr. Zarkov, and other popular characters from the film. In addition to new “retro” scale action figures (and possibly even vehicles this go ‘round!), Bif Bang Pow! will add prop replicas, journals, tin lunch boxes, drink ware, license plate frames, and more to theFlash Gordon line of collectibles. Merchandise is scheduled to hit the marketplace throughout the term of the license.

I, for one, am excited. They did a great job on the Twilight Zone figures. And this is a perfect property for the treatment.

This is welcome news, both NEW Retro AND 3.75" figures! I wanted more Retro beyond Flash and Ming! I had Mattel 3.75" Flash Gordon figures based on Filmation cartoon when I was a kid! I liked the 1980 Flash movie, too, with Queen singing Flash-ah-ah, he'll save every one of us! What about BBP 6" Flash figures will they continue?

*What if George Lucas had acquired Flash Gordon rights and there had been no Star Wars? Mego did make Flash Gordon 9" figures after all!

BIG NEWS, this has been something I've wanted FOREVER!!!!

[Hamonrye]

Here's hoping they can keep the proportions natural. ReAction's melonheaded figures have been a real disappointment.

Oh, and prop replicas? Do I hear Ming's ring?

[VulcansFury]

Curiosly, there is no mention of Voltan. Is Brian Blessed's likeness unavailable? I know there has yet to be one, is he a holdout?

[Hamonrye]

These won't be like that, just look at their TZ figures

Great to hear!

As for Vultan: Too big? Build-a-fig!

You're going to give Brian Blessed a complex, he's no bigger than a Gamorrean Guard.

[Hamonrye]

With wings!

[Hedji]

I can't wait to see some pics!!!! Gordon's ALIIIIVE!?

[Werewolf]

Yeah any ETA on some pics or a release date?

[palitoy]

I got nothing but I'm on the media list.

[Jeff Cope]

Pics can't come soon enough! Heck, the figures can't come soon enough!

[LordMudd]

Vultan was done. It was Baran, Dale, and Aura who missed out. I have the set of figures plus the shuttle.

CCC.

Here is a question for Bif Bang Pow. Which costumes will we get them in?
Flash, Dale, Zarkov, Ming, and Aura all appear in multiple outfits.

I'm hoping the answer is all of the above.
