If they don't get these out in time for Christmas they will be shooting themselves in the foot.

Happy Halloween to all of our bat-fans! Are you going out dressed as any of the characters from our upcoming lines of action figures?
On a side note, we are 2-3 weeks out from Retro series 1 being released!Comment

It's best to sit back and wait. After that, the judging will begin when we have them in our hands. My gut tells me we will not be jumping for joy!!!Comment

It seems to me like they have way too many licences they want to do all at the same time. Maybe they need to pear down and focus on one or two, then move on to more. That way these will actually come out. Not that I'm in any hurry. I'm pretty much just interested in the 66 stuff. Once I saw the Batman 66 Matty figures in person, I was somewhat unimpressed and decided to wait until Figures made theirs.Comment

FTC has let me down too much. The rerelease of the monsters was horrible. All of the KISS figures were great except for the head sculpts. I know that The Farrow did the head sculpts for the Dressed to Kill figures, but the hair on all 4 figures was a huge let down. There was far too much of a difference from the prototypes. Waaayyyy too much!!! From what we have seen of the new DC Batman figures, they are not "exact replicas". They should not have advertise with actual MEGO figures. They should have used their own prototypes. With that, my gut is telling me that more disappointment will be coming. So as I stated, it's best to sit back and wait.Comment

I just hope these guys stick around long enough to get out Conan,Kull, and Solomon Kane.
I just dont need another batman mego or mego like toy.
And we all know they are full of it as far as release dates go.
If they could have gotten these out by now they would have,,,,,they have FAIL written all over them as a company and will kill alot of these great toys once and for all when they go under......Just get out my new REh stuff first.Comment

Wow....and this thread seems like it was just yesterday that some of us so called "purists" knew exactly what was going to happen with this line:
I hope that kids won't be disappointed for Christmas...That would most definitely put the nail in the coffin for this company."When not too many people can see we're all the same
And because of all their tears,
Their eyes can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them
Isn't it a pity".

I think making any kind of reproduction product will always be a slippery slope where the opinions of collectors are involved. These things have such personal meaning that recreating something that could match that original experience is nearly impossible. There's no such thing as a perfect replica, so companies that advertise that way (fair or not) do so at their own peril.Comment

I guess it's obvious as to why FTC does not do conventions like San Diego Comic Con. It would not work for them to have a booth showing off their new product made by MEGO! These guys should have kicked off these lines from the beginning with their own prototypes. This way we would all have a much better idea of what they would be offering.Comment
