    It looks great... but where is the 1:9 version? Don't forget your roots!

    The Zica v1 was a fantastic figure. The best as far as I'm concerned. Any head that was too big for the traditional Mego would fit perfectly on it.
    I was heartbroken when Zica cancelled their Buck Rogers line.

    yes it was. i would have loved to add that one to my collection. I was also really looking forward to the Draconian Guard. i would have bought multiples of that one

    the two Buck Rogers figures made are probably the best figures ever made in the scale. Truly works of art. it was so disappointing when the sales did not warrant the line continuing.

    I was a huge fan of the rubber grappling hands. I wish someone would actually make hands like that.

    Thanks, glad you were impressed with the figure.

    Oh wow...now that you mention it... I get why the torso looks so familiar now...

    But the human body can't be copyrighted though... as long as the thumb nail is in the correct places, it should have been ok.
    The sculpt could be copyrighted in theory. The torso is very stylized and specific.

    Probably wouldn’t catch Hasbro’s eye because of the extremely low numbers either way.
