Figures Toy Co. announces new licenses!

[Chris]

First KISS and now this? Where do these guys get their money from? I'd like to pass the information along to Zica, EMCE and BBP to ensure that no retro lines will ever be cancelled.

Granted, I did preorder the Batman figures and bought all of the 8" KISS figures but that's beside the point.

My boy and I want the Evel Knievel figures!
He is really into Evel Knievel now. He has watched Viva Knievel around 10+ times, I lost count.

OH MY GOD! There is SO much to get! I'm going to have to take out a freaking loan just for all this retro goodness.

[HardyGirl]

Man, now we really need some commercials! Maybe after the toys come out, I'll drop an e-mail to Figures, to have a contest....(gears are turning)...yeah.

I am bummed by the $25.00 price tag. I was going to order Wave 1 remakes of Mego Batman, Robin, Joker, and Riddler,
but at that price I am going to have to pass, and save for TV Batman stuff.
I already have nice loose original Megos that I have restored piece by piece. It would have just been a nice luxury to have the new ones on cards, but oh well.
I'm gonna definitely get as many of the TV figures that I can, but at that price point it will be limited, or it will take me a while to acquire them one by one. That's a pretty steep price, but I think the TV figures will be worth it.

Well, I'm going to be moving into the poor house.

It's a shame their price point is so high. I mean, I can pick up a Bo Duke MOC for between $20-$25 most of the time.

But I will pick up the further expansions of the Duke line.

Totally getting Evel so he and Fearless Fonzi can have a jump off.

Batmans are NO brainers for my part.

Heck, I'll even pick up a JR if for no other reason than to have him hangout with Boss Hogg.

On second thought, I may need 2 JRs... one's gonna become Major Nelson.

I've already been told that the all the Dukes figures will be new sculpts. I was supposed to have been sent a pic last night of them, but my informant didn't send them. I was told not to share so I couldn't have. If they look as accurate as Joker and Egghead...you will want these also.

[Gorn Captain]

We'll even be getting a Tarzan and Jane.
What, no monkey? Every line should have a monkey...

I think I'll focus on Batman 66 and Conan and company. That'll be more than enough!
I must admit, they do offer something for everyone. Nice!

enough money to do all the Dc superheros,Hey CTTV get me an Joanna Cameron ISIS-thanks in advance.

[Figuremod73]

Sounds promising. At least they didnt say no.

Ive been wondering about Marvel ever since I saw the Thor and Ironman boots.

UPDATE! Figures replied to 2 e-mails of mine:

Q: Will there be an Yvonne Craig Batgirl figure in your Classic Batman TV line?

A: The rights are being discussed now, if granted we will release her.

Q: Any chance of more DC Megos, Superman, Wonder Woman, etc? Marvel, too?

A: maybe

There you have it. I hope Yvonne grants her likeness! And a glimmer of hope of more WGSH!

[Boywonder0]

Wow! This is really Toy Fair and SDCC to me!

[TMANSTOYS]
