They're planning Harry Potter??

My guess is that Mickey doesn't work for FTC but does have a close relationship with the people running the company, and probably channels his inner fanboy and shares too much here occasionally. I might find myself in the same situation if I were in his shoes. I appreciate his insights here as well as his love of these figures. We need more posters like him here, IMO.

As for the upcoming announcements, awesome, bring them on! Just a month or so till Early Bird Superman and Wonder Woman ships and I can't wait.

That's not too far off, but the misdirection component leaves a lot to be desired.

If he intentionally posted information that he knows is incorrect, I agree.

I think it's Pippi Longstocking.

Actually I've never ever misdirected on anything Hammer Time. Check your facts of what I said and then what others said. And anything I've ever stated will bare itself out as fact. It will be fun bringing this thread back in the future when it does!

Sure. Have your fun, but it won't change that you've been dropping hints about things that aren't finalized, that you were supposed to keep mum.

I think there are a few of us here who "know things" from speaking to FTC. Some relish in the attention brought on from hint-dropping, others not so much. I treat every piece of information as 100% confidential and never ask "do you mind if I tell my friends?" simply because it's not my news to tell. I wouldn't want to steal any thunder from their facebook page by getting it out first.

I don't think that's a big revelation to many of us that have been following Mickey's posts and I wouldn't call that 'misdirection'. Hopefully FTC will have some news to share soon and get us back on track.

I really don't care what you would call it or whether or not you agree with me. The idea that we supposedly need news from FTC to "get us back on track" tells me the hints and gamesmanship have been counterproductive, along with the negative feedback I've been getting.

nt....

I think the hints are fun and playful, no harm or malice intended. I read every posts from EMCE Hammer and Mickey with a great deal of interested, I look forward to new figures. However, I truly hope Figures does not waste time on Harry Potter 8 inch.

Another "Back To The Future" hint?...

I can understand this stance. Some of the post I read from mickeymoosemego, especially in the beginning, has made me wonder if he is divulging too much info and what FTC really thinks of the hints, etc. although I don't think they have been that revealing after he touched base with FTC. Not to mention...

I like when I come here and see a post that says FTC has posted new info, pictures, etc. on their Facebook account and then we all come back here and discuss it, good and bad. I think that's a lot of fun! I would prefer to get the news that way, a complete surprise, but I do like certain "leaks", like the EE exclusive, which gave us an idea of what was coming, but not the whole picture of the EE, Toycade AND Figures exclusives!

TRDouble, good eye!

Back to the Future would be excellent license with 30th anniversary in 2015! And cheaper than Hot Toys!

What about other 80s movie blockbusters Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones...

Hot Toys Marty will be worth the $$$, though.

In BTTF Part 2 Marty and Doc time travelled to 2015! I wish they had told us how expensive action figures would be in 21st century!
