      I have always wanted the incredible Wah Changs Zantis Misfits. I was in New Jersey and saw they made a life size one. Could'nt afford it though.

      Neat that a mini EArth Astronaut was made for the Twilight Zone series.

      How about the giant inflateable eyeball monster from the tiny alien invader episode?

        6 figures in 2010!!! Awesome!

              I've never actually seen the Twilight Zone. I think I saw the movie when I was a kid but I don't remember.

                My thoughts exactly. Why start a new line with exclusives. Lotta people won't be able to get them or they'll have to pay twice (or even more) what they're worth. Great way to frustrate people even before the line has been launched

                  After all the complaining Doc Mego had to read over Green Arrow ( wasnt active on the Boards for Star Trek POTA, and Living Dead) I feel bad criticizing anything.

                  But on the other hand the makers read these boards so . .

                  I want a toy , not a "Nerd Hummel"

                  That means as much as I like Telly Savalis and Burgess Merideth I want to see cool monsters, in color.


                  If you were 5 again would you want a black and white action figure of some old guy in a suit or a color crazy monster?

                  I'll reserve my final finacial say when I see teh actual produced figures ( preferably in person) but theres my feedback.

                    I loathe exclusives.
                    I think it's safe to assume that Twilight Zone will be geared at older collectors (yeah, it's me), and to be honest, it gives me no pleasure having to hunt down a figure, begging fellow US collectors to help me find a figure, and/or usually paying twice the price. Or loving a series, but always missing several key figures.

                    If I feel like an ice cream, I don't want to run after the truck for fifteen blocks either.
                    If I'm in hospital, in need of a donor heart, I don't want to hear a doctor say: "I'm sorry, but the heart you need is actually short-packed and hard to find. You'll have to try Ebay!"

                    We can all do without exclusives.
                    Yes, we can!!!!

                      We hate going around to stores to hunt for exclusives as well! So I've got good news about our Comic-Con exclusives. In essence, any figure that is our Comic-Con exclusive is actually a Comic-Con "debut". We reserve units for everyone else who can't attend as long as you pre-order ahead of time with our booth partner entertainmentearth.com. We'll have more details to share about these in a few months.

                        Comic Con debut, I like that term. Thanks for the heads up, not that worried anymore now

                          Let me put in my vote for color figures as well. I can't see buying grey figures. JOHN

                            The broadcast dork in me would like a Rod Serling figure to have standing on my desk to oversee my latest broadcast creation but I don't have too high of hopes considering he is just a big eared old dude in a suit. :(

                              I think the Serling figure is a got to have. I've wanted one for years, sort of as the guide to a room full of odd ball figures and statues. The only thing preventing it isn't that he's an old dude with big ears (and he was only 35 when Twilight Zone debuted) it's the cost of licensing. Well, that and demand, but I think it would be relatively high for us old big eared collectors. Just think, you could have a cigarette as the action accessory. Doesn't get cooler than that!

                                I'd like to see a figure of Aunt T.

                                She was in the episode with the two kids, Jeb and Sport, whose parents were undergoing a divorce, and trying to force the kids to make a choice between them.
