Figures Toy Co. announces new licenses!

[Mego-Amigo]

No New 52 for me. Hope they keep it classic.

[B-Lister]

Would love a John Carter and Dejah Thoris too!

[Mego Milk]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ssylyss]

That's a lot of remego goodness, can't wait. I'll be getting multiples of the conan line, very interested to see the price point.

[ScottA]

Holy mother of pearl. I hate that Gilligan is 12" only.

I noticed in the 66 Batman press release they mention everyone but Batgirl.

[huedell]

Oh and Dallas? Really? And Gilligan's Island? That smacks of the ill fated Happy Days line to me. But the other lines have legs. But wow the cost.

Right? After I saw those...that's when my brain auto corrected and said " Oh yeah it's classic TV Toys"

Maybe it IS a bad decision to do the GILLIGAN line... HOWEVER, I've been recommending someone do that since the mid-90s... so I am quasi-pleased it's finally getting done.... to me, that cast and their costumes were MADE to made into Mego type-dolls.

Happy Days, Dallas... not so much.

That's because there's no likeness agreement yet with Yvonne Craig, has to do with money

[Joshua the Atomic Robot]

My mind is blown. I can't believe they are coming out with all this stuff. I might have to sell a kidney to pay for all the toys I'm going to have to buy this year!

[thunderbolt]

i thought there have been statements by her to the contrary.

[palitoy]

Her statement said she's willing to license her likeness as long as she's compensated fairly. She never mentioned she had and the total lack of her character in any merch got fans speculating there could be an issue.

I can't think of a better start to Batgirl merch than an 8" figure.

[ovenmitt]

I would have been down for 8" Megos of ALL 7 Gilligan's Island castaways! Remember the 1997 Exclusive Premiere 9" Gilligans Island figures of Gilligan, Skipper, and Professor?

[ovenmitt]

I called Figures and was told an Yvonne Craig Batgirl will be made!

[palitoy]

Just one critique so far...They REALLY need to work on their packaging designs...Ugh!

All those people looking for custom designed window boxes and cards. The Horror

[nobody]

I haven't heard anyone mention we could possibly get Green Hornets' and Katos'

[timb]

I am cautiously optimistic.

If they haven't upgraded the crap quality of their bodies, they can have every license in the world and it doesn't matter jack.

Especially if it's (like the first go-around) falling apart while yet in the box.

If it's done right though, I will be very impressed.
