Buck Rogers In The 25th Century Update!

[ZICA]

The Midnight Men have me more excited than Buck, loved the comic. Is there more than one issue out?

I'm not sure what the plans are for the comic but last time I spoke with them they were very happy to hear the characters would be done in the 8" scale. Even if the comic doesn't continue I might do more of the characters simply because they have some cool designs.

As long as you do the warrior/amazon chick!!

I'm not that big a fan of the Buck Rogers tv show but I like what I've seen so far with these figures. I'll probably end up buying some of them.

Since I'll need a female body made for the Buck Rogers line I say the chances are pretty good you'll see that figure at some point.

^^ Hope your body can live up to the character.

I'll do my best.

I guess it has to if you are doing an Erin Grey figure.

Yes, Gil was really excited when he heard about the figures.

^^^ Cause he'll get a check??

[starsky]

i wonder how much he gets? i thought all the money went to robert dille inc, the creator of buck rogers?

They gotta pay actor likeness fees, too.

Any thoughts on what the packaging will look like for the Buck Rogers line? Will you go w/boxes or bubble carded figures? Are you thinking of going with drawings of the figures or photographs?

BTW, thank you for all of your hard work on making these figures become a reality. I can't wait to own a set and I wish you the best of luck.

All I can say for now is that the figures will come in retro style boxes but not like the ones MEGO used.

It's been more of an uphill battle than I expected but I'm having a lot of fun working with this project. I'm definitely headed in a somewhat different direction from the original MEGO design but overall I think people will be happy with the final product.
