      Yeah, it's a home run for sure.

        I agree Brian! You wouldn't happen to know where Doc Mego could get his Hands on a GREAT Michael York Sculpt would you?

          Richard Anderson is also in the kerfuffle. He bought the rights to the series in the eighties, and made the tv reunion movies...all of which (except the last one) were backdoor pilots for new Bionic shows.

            The naming of cats is a difficult matter, it's not just one of your holiday games.
            You may think at first I'm mad as a hatter, when I tell you that each cat's got three different names.

              I'd rather see Doctor Who myself. But that's just me.

                No use for figures of Logan's Run eventhough I loved the movie. So many other retro toys could be made.

                  I like the movie since my parents took us to see it when it came out.
                  However, I don't see any current or future tie in, let alone interest, to justify producing mass quantities of this line. If there were resurgence of some sort then yes but other than that I would rather see other lines be made.
                  What I would like to see is musician lines be made but that wouldn't fly either.
                  Need to find a line that will sell to the mass market including overseas.
                  Dr Who might have a healthy following of fans.
                  My two centavos.

                    Bryan Singer was supposed to be doing a Logan remake based more on the book series than the film/tv series....but he's supposed to be doing everything at one point or another. Since he's doing Galactica right now, I doubt a Logan film will pop up soon. Still, it is a cool film (and tv show) and if Mego/EMCE put out some figures, I would buy 'em!

                      As Doc is so fond of saying "they would sell tens and tens of them".

                      I'd been in for a couple for sure.

                          I'd buy at least 2 of each of the film and TV versions of the characters. i loved Heather Menzies in that short pink dress!

                          I'd go Big time on Doctor Who Mego's of all Doctor's and Companions!

                            You'll see lines like this when the MM hits 10,000 active members. Only way it would ever support production of an obscure line like this. Dr. Who would be possible if the license was not so expensive and there was a link to UK distribution, but the license alone would be a major monetary output.
                            It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                                I'd snap up a set in a heartbeat, especially Jessica (Jenny Agutter - yowza!).

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."
