Perhaps FTC should learn how to make 8 inch figures before they expand. Practice,Practice,Practice. Of course they do have all those 18 inch sized heads sitting around. I'd love to see an 18 inch Alfred.Comment

I don't either, honestly. In fact I might not want an AC or Giganta in that scale either, but definitely a 12 incher if they could make that size.Comment

they must think someone will buy those big ones, they will be over 100 bucks, too. I remember seeing the same scale Kiss sit around at Spencers for a long time on markdown. And I agree they should get 8 inch right first. Its amazing that they have one of the biggest stable of characters around in DC and continually keep screwing it up with poor QC, poor body design and bait and switch prototypes.Last edited by thunderbolt; Oct 5, '14, 1:25 PM.You must try to generate happiness within yourself.

Me too rlkrefft...Me tooooo! I'm also psyched to get 66 Batgirll (w/ Neck exclusive!) & EARTHA Kitt Catwoman (Also w/ Neck Variant!), but I'm hoping we see at least the forthcoming Julie Newmar CATWOMAN in FTC's BATMAN '66' wave 3 w/ hopefully; KING TUT, Mr. FREEZE, & MAD HATTER. I can easily skip RC & RM Bats & Robi for 66! I hope my EE Superman wave 1 (x2) & Batman '66' wave 2 (x2) come soon! My x4 EE Wonder Woman figs came in 4 DAYS Total Ship time! That's great for FREE S/H! Too bad I got the x4 FTC Wonder Woman's regular release....I was hoping EE had WW w/ Necks exclusives!Comment

Thats where I am now, I re-established my collection of WGSH with a few repairs and changed bodies. But if the new characters are not produced with higher quality control I will drop waaaaaay down on my purchases. I've always wanted the Flash, Green Lanturn and Dr Fate, so those will tempt me more than any other. But the rest probably won't tempt me much at all if the quality stays the same.My posts were needlessly deleted ...Comment

The only way I can see an 18" WGSH figure selling would be if it had the level of detail you would hope for in an 18" figure. The sculpt would have to be excellent and the costume would have to be spot on! I would almost expect emblems to be embroidered and a Batman would have to include in-scale extras like a Batarang and maybe even a Batrope on a retractable reel in his belt! That cape would have to be HUGE!!!
A big, clumsy looking version of Batman would lose all of the charm of the original Mego figures.

I realized the other day that FTC has made all of the DC Mego figures in one year. That is, all of the DC characters that Mego made from 1972-1977, FTC has made in the last year (I'm including Green Arrow, Aquaman and Shazam, even though these haven't been released on their own Mego type cards yet). That deserves a thumbs up.Comment
