    Here they come…walkin’ down the street…


    OK, so they’re not walking, but they are coming, in retro action figure form for the very first time! Figures Toy Company is proud to announce their latest license, arriving this year as both 8 and 12 inch size figures…THE MONKEES!

    Since debuting on television in the 60’s, the music and misadventures of Peter Tork, Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith, and Micky Dolenz has made them one of the most recognizable acts in history. Now, Figures Toy Company is moving them from radio and television to the toy shelf, with three different series of action figures!

    All four members of the band will be released in red shirt outfits, black tuxedos, and their superhero Monkee Men attire! All three series will be released in the 8 inch figure form, while only the red shirt series will be released as both 8 and 12 inch figures.

    You won’t have to take the Last Train To Clarksville to get these figures, because they’ll be available on www.figurestoycompany.com this fall! In the meantime, stay tuned to Figures Toy Company social media and use the hashtag #MMFTCNEWS for updates on The Monkees and all of their other awesome toy lines!

    I'm interested in either the red shirt or Monkee Men versions. You know Alex Ross is going to want a set of these. He put the Monkee Men in Kingdom Come!

      When I was five, I raced home everyday to watch the Monkees/Little Rascals.

      There is no way I wouldn't have begged for Monkee figures in 1976 and I can't deny owning them now.

      However, I can't decide on whether i want regular or Monkee Men. It's bothering me.

        Great news. Loved the show.
        Too many toys. Not enough space!

            I'm very happy about this!

            I think that the Red Shirts will be Great.
            The Monkee Men will be cool too.
            I'm not so sure about the tuxedo Monkees.
            Maybe they should do the Season 2 look where they look more hippie with Micky's bushy hair rather than the tuxedo set.

            I'm willing to bet that if these sell well, we'll also see Blue Monkee Shirt variants.

            Maybe even multiple colored Monkee shirts.

            In my opinion, they should sell instruments for these figures and don't forget the Vox amps.

                That is pretty wild. Can't wait to see what they look like.

                  I have a soft spot for the Monkees, so I'm excited for these. Can't wait to see the head sculpts.

                    Now I can finally have that Monkees / Batman '66 crossover I always wanted when I was a kid. And yeah, I really used to fantasize about that.

                    Don't know about the Tuxedo Monkees, though. There were a lot of other outfits they wore on the show that I would like to see more. But I'm definitely down for the red shirts and the Monkee Men. They're other outfits will be easy to customize, anyway.

                      I'm wondering if Mike will come with his hat.
