SDCC: Heroes in Action! Lincoln and LINCOLNSTEIN!

[David Lee]

Don't get me wrong, I like the Lincolnstein figure, but I don't get WHY it was made, is there some sort of history with this one? Does he appear in a comic like that or something?

Yea why? Did I miss something cool?

There's not a backstory or comic or whatever, it's just an idea....but the story would write itself, IMO, they may do something with it.

Neat! That's even better IMHO, new and exciting not just re-hash. I am glad to see them do something cool and original, that takes some chutzpah!

No, it's just kind of fun random thing. Lincoln is not only a historical icon but he kind of permeates into pop culture as well. Mostly due to Harvard educated comedy writers being obsessed with him. Doesn't it already look like it came from a comic or a movie?

Yeah, I love the idea, it's cool, it's original. And I could totally see this in a comic

Says the guy who gave me the idea in the first place

[Werewolf]

Are the Lincolns true Mego scale? I remember the previous political figure was quite a bit taller.

[megoscott]

He's a little taller.

[cjefferys]

brings a whole new meaning to the term 'dead presidents'

And a new meaning to "Lincoln Monsters".

[Robin NY]

what a great idea
