    Abraham Lincoln is a definite for me, will go well with my Trek collection, George Washington, Teddy and FDR Roosevelts
    Ulysses Grant, JFK and of course Richard (I'm not a crook) Nixon is a must, and throw in the First Ladies for good measure.

      I'm hoping for the Presidents line they wind up selling just the heads. I'm thinking Futurama customs.

        It looks like 12 figures, Lincoln, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama, Trump, Kennedy, and Johnson.

          As someone slowly getting into Presidential Monsters, maybe a few choices will be cheaper alternatives to make as customs.

          I've a childhood picture of me from the early 80's going to Disneyland for the first time. I was in the 2nd grade. Used to be back then in Cali you could see more robotic presidents. Nowadays I understand Disneyworld Florida has the extra presidents. I've gone to Disneyland 4 or 5 times since and all we get are Great Moments with Lincoln or some such thing.

                  These and no George Washington or Thomas Jefferson? Does Clinton come with saxophone accessory and cigar?

                  If these are 12" figures than I'll probably skip or just get Abraham Lincoln, although wondering how the quality will be and of course the cost.

                  Might be better off looking for the Effenbee collection Lincoln doll.

                    Yes, Lincoln might be neat. He grew up, in the middle of nowhere...still the middle of nowhere, about 70 miles from my childhood home. He lived there during his formative years, from age 7 to 21. Because of that, I've always had an even strong affinity for the man.

                        Holy cow, that Batcave looks great. I thought FTC would just change the graphics on the existing Mego-repro cave, but they did NOT!

                        I don't think I ever saw that particular DC Heroes World ad before. Very cool!

                            That Edmonton find is something else.
                            I've been floating around the idea of collecting Buck Rogers and I'd love to pick up the Star Trek aliens.

                            I dig the Peter Graves custom, I wish Mission Impossible had a lunch box back then. I could picture the graphics in my head with one of the sides having the fuse bomb. Paris or Rolling putting on a face disguise on one front, Mr Phelps wearing a quasi-axis uniform karate chopping somebody in the back.

                              Thank you - I have been under the weather and this one was heavy on the Heiler and light on the Moore.

                                Does that mean less sarcasm or more? I don't know anymore.
