    I'd imagine any Bionic Woman figures would require a separate license from Universal, since it was a different show. A "fembot" could be part of the SMDM line since they appeared in one episode ("Kill Oscar—Part II"), but they are more closely associated with BW where they appeared in four episodes ("Kill Oscar—Parts I & III" and "Fembots in Las Vegas—Parts I & II").

    A BW line would realistically feature just three characters: Jaime, Max, and a fembot. It's doubtful minor guest-star characters like Callahan, Mark Russell or Chris Williams would warrant figures. SMDM figures like Oscar Goldman and Dr. Rudy Wells could serve as "cross-overs" for both lines—just as they did on the shows.

    Bigfoot also crossed over to BW for one episode ("The Return of Bigfoot—Part II"), but it was Ted Cassidy who played him. Maybe we'll get a Ted Cassidy figure, too! Though it would have to be a bit shorter and not have a fat gut!

      I'm really glad they opted for this style as opposed to disco Bigfoot.

            Probably a reference to the Ted Cassidy version of Bigfoot, his giant perm, purple eye-shadow, and that gawdawful score that was used for "The Return of Bigfoot—Part I". They should have stuck with the Bigfoot "theme" established in Andre's "The Secret of Bigfoot".

                I think the best solution for bionics would be the Venture Bros style "phantom" see through body parts, used say just on one arm and legs, and then have the bionics printed on like they have for the original Kenner assignment arms. I think that would do the trick.

                  Damn, Alex. Great idea.
                  If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                    I was actually talking about this with another member and that's what he suggested as well. I think it's a great idea too.

                      There are a lot of good ideas here. I think it would be fantastic if they produced a "Build Your Own Bionic Man Kit" similar to the EMCE Zombie kits. You could build 3 Steve Austins, one undamaged, one slightly damaged with cyborg parts showing and one with completely uncovered bionic parts. Include 3 different show accurate outfits that can be cut and torn to show the damaged limbs and you would have an awesome set of figures for display.

                        Sort of like this? But with a screen print instead of the embedded plastics?

                        that is Hombre Bionicos from the Mexican Big Jim line, btw.
