New licenses

[TrekStar]

Why would FTC make $30 Waltons that would compete with the $15 Mego ones?

Unless they decide to make the characters Mego skipped, like the rest of the kids, Ike and Corabeth, Baldwin sisters
most likely not but it's nice to wish.

You can buy loose cheap looking or incomplete Mego Waltons on eBay for around $15 or more, then there's shipping, but nice clean complete loose or the two together in the window box can be a little pricey, seems the Grandparents are the most expensive of the sets.

Collecting all (6) complete in the widow boxes can be pricey, but not completely out of the realm.

I think a line of the Pulp Heroes would make me very, very happy. Movie Serials, Radio, Pulp, and Comic Strips....there are fans across all of those mediums and plenty of characters.

I agree, I wonder if FTC could nab Conde-Nast and King Features licensing?

Looks like the entire set of two packs went for $53 recently and people can't give away the John Boy/Mary Ellen sets.

If Diamond can't make Star Trek a thing, I don't know how this would fly.

There is possibly no bigger Oz or Walton's fan here than I, but I think line extensions would be a no-go.

I'd like to see the old AHI Monsters of the 70's re-released.

[JediJaida]

How about a re release of Super Knights? And this time with a Queen Guenivere, Morgan LeFay, Merlin, Ygraine, Isolde. As well as Robin Hood with a Maid Marian, Prince John, Sheriff of Nottingham, Guy of Gisbourne, King Richard Lionheart.

Dang it all, I've been checking ebay for Walton's box sets and never seen this, I would have scooped this up at the last minute, although it ended over a month ago I was checking then too. When I see a two pack, its usually John Boy and (Mary) Ellen, mego sort of messed up her name.

The parents and grandparents two pack usually is more expensive, maybe mego made less of those figures?

That would be cool if they could!

Conde-Nast has licensed the rights to comics for Doc Savage and The Shadow and fairly recently, at that. I read not too long ago that there is a 6 issue Batman and The Shadow crossover comic that will start up in late April of this year.

And Cast-A-Way nabbed The Phantom and Flash Gordon from King Features at one point. (And I am still reeling from getting that Phantom, as well as the 12" Flash Gordon. I am so glad Cast-A-Way did them.)

I think I bring this up every time, but I'd love to see Archer figures!

I hope if they do it though, they do a new female body.

Also, if they got the Dr Who license, I would be in for every one of the Doctors as long as they were in scale and well done.

I could see the Batcave playset redone to show the inside of the Tardis.

I wonder if old school Archie figures would look great next to the Hanna barbera figs. I'd buy them.

You really could go to town with Archie, sort of like what they did with the Monkees. Regular edition, band uniforms, the Superheroes and the Man from R.I.V.E.R.D.A.L.E variants.

Would love to see them get the Lost in Space, Trek, POTA, A-Team, and V lincenses.

They could do all kinds of retro fashion versions for each decade, too. And then there's Josie and the Pussycats and Sabrina, and their huge supporting cast like Moose, Midge, Ethel, Dilton, Cheryl Blossom, Kevin Keller, Chuck, and that's not even mentioning the adults (Mr. Weatherbee, Miss Grundy, Mr. Lodge, Pop Tate). What would be tough is now Archie is doing a more realistic art style, and they have the Riverdale show, so would they want to do more realistic modern figures or a retro line in their old style?

Realistic Archie and the CW show are like The Godfather III to me... THEY DON'T EXIST IN MY REALITY!!!!

Luckily, the digest are still out there in the classic styles. And that's what I think the figures would represent, if anyone ever did make figures off the license.
