    As for Flash Gordon...real Flash..not movie Flash...I spoke to King Features a few years back at the request of a different toy company, and at the time they were more than willing to split the licenses up regarding scale, price point, etc.. In short, even though Go Hero has the high end 12" license, you could/should still be able to get the rights to add the classic Flash to your roster, alongside the movie. I know the movie has its fans, but theres a lot of us out here who would rather see a line based on the comic strip!
    Much as I love FG all around, and the original Raymond work, we're going to explore the film first, and hopefully get to even more characters than we were able to with our 7" line. I think people are going to be blown away by what's coming, Ming especially.

    And what I'd really wanna do with FG next is the Filmation animated series figures! The character and vehicle design for that show is still fantastic, and Mattel never made enough characters back in the day. Stay tuned......

      Filmation Flash is cool too!! They used a definitive Flash look more in line with the original stuff!!

        Will these be released in the US alone or also elsewhere in the world?
        By the time the Lost figures will be released the show will likely have ended in the US, but will still be running in different countries all over the world

            No, it's worse.
            They show double episodes each week, but sometimes only half a season.
            So you get six weeks of Lost, and then nothing for a whole year or longer.
            By then, everyone has lost the plot, confusion all around.
            And then they wonder why the show doesn't get good ratings anymore...

            You end up not giving a rodent's posterior what will happen next....

              I'd love to see more super-hero and monster characters. The Flash Gordon line should be great, as well as some cool Twilight Zone monsters. What do you guys think about some old school Hannah Barberra heros, like Johnny Quest, Hurculoids, Mightor, Birdman, Dino Boy, ect.????

                I forgot to ask the question, because Doc mentioned a sci-fi licence, then I presume its flash gordon?

                  the show is brilliant. It's Johnny Quest meets James Bond meets
                  superheroes - but funny.

                  They have done parodies of Dr. Strange, Fantastic Four, Blade,
                  SMDM, S.H.I.E.L.D, etc. any old school comic book fan will love it.
                  Don't forget there's some Doc Savage thrown in for good measure. For those that aren't familiar with the series,I recommend the third season episode "Now You Museum,Now You Don't" to get a good idea about all of this.
