    What if ..... EMCE makes Logans run figures

    Well weve had the Tron, how about Logans run, if they made any of these, I would just die and go to heavan. Ive seen a few customs floating around on these boards, and they just look fantastic. There seems that there were no toys made for this, please get me wrong someone?

    I'd be right there with you on the Logan's Run thing. Mego bought the rights to the movie to protect the whole Farrah thing, they commissioned sculpts of Movie Logan, Francis and Jessica but it didn't get past clays before they gassed it.

    When MGM sold it as a series, Mego got pretty far in creating the line, several factory samples exist of the four principles but seeing as the show got cancelled before Toy Fair, it was dropped fairly quickly.

    The Sandman outfits Mego produced made it out to stores on blow molded dolls in the same manner you see other mego outfits on crappy dolls, I had a couple of them at one point.

    It's about time Logan got a real figure line.

        I would also be very happy. As a fan of the movie, I always wanted figures.

          I've seen the movie as an adult and I never saw the TV show, so personally I'm not that keen at seeing these. But I do know this board has quite a lot of fans

            I have to agree with Thomas ... While they would be a hit here on the Museum, they'd be peg-warmers for sure in the real world.

            The TV series is almost unknown to everyone and even the movie itself is a bit obscure today to the general public.

              I think the movie has a strong cult appeal, a Michael York figure would sell.

                  Yeah but I've been told by somebody in the biz that it's a no fly zone, legal nightmare.

                      Yep I believe it has to do with a legal argument over rights & money between Martin Caidin the autor of the book "Cyborg" which the SMDM was based on, and Universal Studios. That is why there are still no Six Million Dollar Man DVD's in the U.S.

                        Are we talking the movie, the series, or both?

                        I'd go for both, I grew up with these.
                        I'd prefer the movie figures, though.

                            That's it and it relates to toys as well, my buddy explored it for a while, I'm guessing more than a few people have.

                              That's a shame. I think we ALL would be excited over SMDM.
