What Should EMCE Toys Try to do next ?

[BlackKnight]

We Need more Options for the Female Figure

We also need an African American version for those of us who are doing stuff like Storm, etc.

Uhura , Uhura, Uhura, Uhura, Uhura .... Ok,.. Anyone ?

Repro Muscle/Hulk/Thing bodies that are bigger than the originals, for those that like big, beefy characters like Juggernaut, Grundy, etc. Accessories for 'em too (clothes, shoes, etc.)!!!

And more female heads with rooted hair besides blonde!!! Like JediJaida said!

[JediJaida]

We need more options for the female figure. Different colors like light or dark brown, and maybe green for those of us into alien customs.

I know that the figures are dyeable, but I'm too darned lazy to do so.

We also need more options for the female heads.

As it is, there is only one female head with rooted hair. She's fine, but I'd like to see her in brunette, black or red hair.

We also need an African American version for those of us who are doing stuff like Storm, etc.

Type3Toys Inspired me to start this Thread after asking What should castaway Toys do next. Well What about EMCE Toys ? Since The Star Trek are doing well , What else would you like to see in the Star Trek line or is there another line that maybe you would Hope Diamond Select would Sponsor . I'll Start out with my wish list , and everyone can add from there.

All Are in in the 8" Format

Star Trek Movie 8" Figures
Star Trek The Next Generation
Battlestar Galactica ( Original Series )
Hanna Barbera Super Heroes
Buck Rogers

Better Quality Reissues of the -
Mad Monsters
Super Knights
Robin Hood & Merry Men
Western Heroes


What does everyone else think ?

I'd like to see "Star Trek" Movie 8" figures & "The Next Generation."

V,yes I want V figures...Then the Donovan figure could also be used in a seperate Beastmaster line...think about it double usage very meoesque...LOL
Oh,oh and then willy could also be used for Freddy....Oh yeah I see it all clearly now...

Ok - by way of my Peruvian friend living in Austria who's addicted to US television - I hereby make a suggestion:

Legend of the Seeker

It's a LOTR/Xena type sword and sorcery deal in it's first season on ABC exec produced by Sam Raimi. Personally I have to agree that mego type toys of this would actually kind of rock the salad bar.

anything star trek ,bsg ,v ,a-team ,wgsh ,apes, buck rogers ???????????

[PNGwynne]

That's an appreciated clarification, Dave. Castaway appears to have really taken the Mego-type body to the next level.
I want to see diverse success, too, coupled with quality.

Well, I'd love to see more Trek figs come out and I'm all for a Battlestar Gallactica line too. But with the release soon of the Enterprise bridge, what about the Gamma playset? What about even doing a Galleo shuttle? With Didas doing playsets, they added chairs. What I'm saying is, what about accessorizing the figures. Conferance table with a view screen like on Star Trek. Or what about a Weapons Rack, to hold 4 or 5 guns for the Apes line. How about redoing the Mego horses. I know Doc offers horses on his site, but they just don't have that "Mego" look, no offense. The Apes line had this idea down pretty good, with a battering ram, throne, cattapult,...etc. Any way, that is just a few things to think about. Who knows what the future holds, but it's looking good so far.

Nice ideas ~ A Galileo shuttle would be cool, as would {gasp} an Exclusive 'Spock's Brain' set, with a Kara/Morg set OR the Exclusive Spock in dark olive uniform and head gear.

It would be a Mego Meet mainstay for years and years..!

Sounds great, but would Marty Abrams allow that? And where would that leave other companies like Castaway, etc?

We are independent... we don't invoke the name; nor do we remake MEGO figures. We are focusing on smaller niche licenses and high quality parts, so we feel like whatever happens is great for MEGO fans, but is not really much of a concern to us as a company. We wish everyone the best!

I think what EMCE should try to do next is become MEGO.

You know the batman "the brave and the bold" cartoon, seems to me would tie in nicely to the retro "WGSH" after you do the originals, want to try a new character? team him up with batman in the cartoon and then the kid's see him on the shelf, they go "Gotta have that one!" We know we would anyway.
ok, I know this only covers dc, but you gotta start some where.
