    I really wish FTC would restock some stuff....

    They sell out of things and its just...gone. Occasionally they will restock, but it's so sporadic...

    Its frustrating because you figure...if something sells out, it must be popular enough people will buy em out! So maybe order a bit more of the popular stuff?

    No, I'm pretty sure they're in clearance mode. Some customizers, for example BrentzDollz, have purchased lots of clothes.
    WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

        They do? Must revisit.

        Just checked: The "new for 2024" stuff I see is parted-out previous releases.

            I am looking for the Space 1999 Number 8 old man head, FTC/CTVT used to carry it, but it’s been a long time since I’ve seen it on the website, they still have Balor though, but they call it the Wiseman head.

              I wish they would restock the hooded black cape, red trunks, brown leather jacket, and the brown trenchcoat.

                  Its all good, but you get my point...those things are sought after and used frequently by customizers. You'd think it would be an incentive to restock them..

                    Right, they sold out of the tan and brown trench coats pretty quickly (the tan ones are a pretty common color for trench coats) and they never restocked those. I'm sure folks would really like those, the red trunks, the black hooded cape, etc... too.

                    They sell some items over on their "figuretoycompany dot com" website that you can't find on the "classictvtoys dot com" site. Odd items, like the Davy Crockett cap ("brown racoon cap"), the knights helmets, the black druid robe, etc...

                    However, they don't have the sold out items (like the red trunks, tan and brown trench coats, etc... ), unfortunately.

                      Yeah, was really disappointed when they ran out of the Invisible Girl based Mary Marvel head. That had the best paint job of any head using that mold ever, and showed how good the sculpt actually is. Only really new stuff I've seen them add is the "honest, they aren't Marvel" costumes. I really hope they aren't on their way out; I know I have to avoid a lot of stuff because they store things in a hot Florida warehouse, but they still have a lot of stuff I grab from time to time.

                        They really are a necessity for customizers...as frustrating as they are sometimes...

                          Question...What exactly is Worldsgreatestsuperheroes.com's association to FTC/CTVT??

                          THEY have the red trunks in stock...along with a few other items that can be found on the CTVT site...

                            It's a resale site along with some of its own custom stuff.
