    Wolfman looks awesome, and the Pulp Fiction ones look pretty cool--a little closer on the likenesses. But most of the head sculpts are poopy and generic. Back to the Future ones are not very impressive. Many of these seem to have the same head with different colored hair.

    I want Universal Monsters most, they remind me of 80s Remco 3.75" Mini Monsters! Getting, Michael, Jason, and Freddy, too!

    Yes exactly!!! Though I do live the Adventure people so.....

    For myself I was looking forward most to the Escape from Noo Yawk figure and I agree I was not too impressed with it. Hopefully it will look a bit different once released (and that is very possible)

    I think they're mistaking retro for crappy.
    "Oh, yeah, collector's just love poorly made crap from the 70s!!!"

    These are simply awful.
    The Alien ones are selling for $35 a piece here. I wouldn't pay $5 for these new ones from Predator, Escape, etc.

    If this is the only way to get humanoid shaped smaller figures from BACK TO THE FUTURE and PULP FICTION (@ $10 a pop, no less), then I'm in, likenesses be damned.
    Early SW I will give you were not the most accurate... But they got way better as they went on. These look a little worse than innaccurate, they appear purposely generic, not charmingly basic Nobody hopes more than me that they get tweaked... I had, and still have, high hopes for these. Marty and Doc are high on my list, and if we get a DeLorean? I could lose my mind...

    Yes... Yes. Or perhaps underthinking it. It's weird. In 1978 Kenner gave us Walrus Man, but months later, they'd sculpt the amazing ALIEN prototype. I don't think ReAction is giving Kenner enough credit.

    I have been really looking forward to these, but so far am not impressed. I do like some OK, and will definitely buy some though. Hoping the production figures come out looking better.

    Can't wait to see the Universal Monsters, Modern Horror and Firefly.

    Zica killed it with their SMDM line. KILLED IT!

    The only ones that interest me are Nightmare Before Christmas and Universal Monsters. The prototypes shown are obviously very early. So, I think they look fine. Predator is of very low interest to me but I do think they nailed the early Kenner SW cantina child friendly cuteness with the various Predators.

    Unfortunately I have to agree with you guys this time. When I got my first look at these figures Friday evening I began to slowly lose heart as I scrolled down the page. These are truly lacking the vintage charm of the Alien and Zica SMDM figures in this style. I was super excited when I first heard the news about all the great licenses being made into 3 3/4 retro figures but now... not so much. Unless they greatly improve I will pass on all of them. Judging from most of the comments here if I were Funko/Super 7 I would quickly go back to the drawing board. Otherwise these lines are doomed before they get started good.
