    Not loving any of the Tarzan line except for Tarzan himself...the girls' headsculpts are too doll-like and Korak looks too wholesome. He should at least have Tarzan style black hair and no smile. One thing about Korak though--his outfit and gear will be a great addition to Tarzan, so I'll probably pick him up just for that.

    As for Conan--I think he'll look good on a buff body but right now his head looks too big for him. Not interested in Kull or Kane.

    I know those are prototypes, but they hold a load of promise. I think those will be very cool.

    Yeah, that sculpt's clearly based on Russ Manning's work, while Tarzan was based on Joe Kubert's. I'll definitely pick up a couple of them!

    EDIT: I would have really liked it if FTC used the material from Korak's loincloth for Tarzan, as well. The scale of the leopard print is much more accurate than the 1:1 stuff Mego used. I realized FTC's trying to imitate the Mego's the best they can, but this material looks more like "nudie camo" instead of leopard skin.

    Kull and Kane just seem to look a little silly.
    Maybe I had it wrong in my mind, thinking they'd look a bit more impressive. They have a Monty Python quality to them.
    If Kane ever loses an arm, he'll probably shout "It's only a flesh wound!!!"

    But Conan looks just right, and I don't have the Mego version. I'll get that one. And the card art looks fantastic anyway...

    Kull kind of reminds me of Jim Shooter in the face.
    Holy crap, you are right! He should be on the 10" body, though.

    If we get some indication that Kane's head will be fixed I'd be in, otherwise I am not spending 30 bucks on an out of whack bobblehead. Kull kind of reminds me of Jim Shooter in the face.

    I'll just get Conan.
    Kull and Kane (why does this sound like a duo of TV detectives?) don't impress me. Pity...
    I'm picking up what your laying down.
    I was excited about all three but I'm taking a pass on Solomon Kane the head just looks enormous!!!
    Great looking clothes though....maybe I'll get him but I'm doubtful.

    For some reason I see The Kurgen from Highlander in the King Kull sculpt.

    I'd like to have seen Kane feature a molded hat, but these look nice.

    Korak is very Gold Key & well-sculpted.

    It seems to me it would be very easy for FTC to add foes Thulsa Doom and Thoth-Amon. In fact, Kull's FTC outfit looks very much like Doom's Marvel Comics togs.
