        Well, that is is surprising (to me AAR) and disappointing, But there are lots of nice pug figurines on ebay; it's not like nobody here ever made a Krypto.

                Robin looks like he's wearing a suit for an 8" figure.

                  I'm sure a factory in China could find a source for a plastic pug figure and get it painted right for this series. I shouldn't have to do it myself.

                    I'm going to find it very difficult to say no to Wendy/Marvin, and the Jonny Quest gang.

                    If they could just tighten up the clothing on Robin nice and snug, he'd be a home run, because his head sculpt is awesome. Reminds me of the Neal Adams Robin on the back of one of the Power Records albums.

                      You're preaching to the converted. I'm just trying to make lemonade, I like JQ.

                        As a matter of coincidence I sought out a bulldog on eBay and plan to repaint it like Bandit. I'm hoping FTC will make all the HB dogs, but in the event they don't I'll have the JQ gang with their trusty pet. I don't imagine I'll be buying the new sets right away so I've plenty of time. I'll share pictures when I'm ready, but I'm sure many others had the same idea and are many steps ahead of me.

                            Some interesting stuff in there, that I had no idea about as usual. The black leather Catwoman is really interesting. Paint her face blue and you have the TNBA design.

                            Great job folks!

                              The Green Arrow Car video is awesome. Thanks for that. Now I have something new to obsess over.

                              It's too bad Mego (to my knowledge) never did TV ads for their wonderful character cars.
