Wave 8 speculation

[LonnieFisher]

Hunchback, The Fly (classic version), Swamp Creature, Medusa, Devil (perhaps a challenge to sell at general retail), Zombie

More classic Star Trek TOS

You got The Fly right.

[LonnieFisher]

So, what do you think/hope wave 8 will include?

Music? Paul Stanley with new paint job, to be more accurate. Dee Snyder. Alice Cooper.

Movies? Planet of the Apes

Horror? Glow-in-the-dark Mummy, Glow-in-the-dark Werewolf, Glow-in-the-dark Headless Horseman, Glow-in-the-dark Freddy, Non-glow Romulan/Vampire, Grey flocked Werewolf

Sci-Fi? Scotty, Mirror Scotty, Bones, Mirror Bones, Kor, Kang, Koloth, Mara, Kahless...

Pop Culture? Stan Lee

I got Stan Lee right.

[palitoy]

I think Gatchaman is somewhat settled. They're talking a film here in the US.

[tmthor]

Which ones? Just any, as long as it's anime? Quite a large genre...

I would love Battle of the Planets/Gatchaman but with the rights in such confusion will probably never happen
and so Starblazers/ Battleship yamato love too
maybe some of the Super robots like Mazinger Z or the Getter Robos

[LonnieFisher]

Stan Lee's daughter filed a lawsuit against Pow!, so I hope the Stan Lee figure doesn't get cancelled. Seems like they have had some licensing issue with the 14" wave seven assortment, and it didn't get released. I really want a better Stan figure than the one FTC made.

[LonnieFisher]

I'm hoping they announce a few anime properties.

I always felt that FTC did their Harry Potter figures too early, just ahead of the HP Renaissance that took place and hasn't stopped. Missed opportunity for them.

I would very happily welcome Harry Potter in Wave 8. If they created a new teen and child body, that would be the icing on top!

Excellent likeness! It really captured Alan Rickman.

Marty did an interview on YouTube with aNb Media. You see Snape at the 13:19.

[k2]

i would be all in on Harry Potter

[LonnieFisher]

Not to sound like an ignoramus, but when did we see that sculpt?

Mego Meet, maybe.

I’d have to say that since we have seen a sculpt of Snape’s head, Mego has to be considering doing smaller bodies for children and teens for Harry Potter characters. This would open up doors for all kinds of other licenses that would be great. I’m thinking stuff like “The Goonies”, “The Sand Lot”, Tyrion Lannister, “Time Bandits” “Monster Squad”, “ The Lost Boys”, “Stranger Things”, “Willie Wonka”, etc.

Add a 14 inch Balrog and I would be in heaven.
