Would EMCE ever consider a Dick Tracy line?

Love to see a Dick Tracy line, but Doc is probably right on the sell thru on them.

Not to sound like a wet blanket, and usually I support many of these ideas, but there are too many other figures I would want first, but then I never was a big DT fan. Before my time I guess. That movie with Warren Beatty, was one of the only movies I ever walked out of, I hated it.

LOL! I didn't even GO to that movie.

Not that I dislike Warren Beatty, I just can't stand Madonna.

Odd too cause Beatty's Dick Tracy is straight from the pages of the comics. One of the best comic-to-movie adaptations in that respect.

That movie got lost in the Madonna nonsense of the 1980's.

I can't imagine a Tracy license is that expensive... SHOCKER TOYS has the freaking license.

Plus they're making new Tonner dolls I think.

Not sure how much of a market there is for it though.

The statue of Tracy looks great and if a Mego style figure looked like that I would definitely support it. The Dick Tracy by Shocker Toys looked horrible... like anything they do really. I saw a review online. Just a lump of plastic without any sculpting grace or passion... much like the recent Star Trek line by Playmates.

I'm buying those Dick Tracy archive books put out by IDW and they are awesome. Not sure about the audience size but the treatment is nice insofar as the publishing world goes.

I like the idea of a Tracy line but would probably only pick up a few of them ...not all. as for the movie.. i liked madonna it was a mistake to make her the villian and it's biggest problem ... was killing off all the notable DT villians in the first 2 minutes to set up madonna and Big Boy as the big Villians in the story. I was so ticked off after that!
