    Whatever happened to Flash Gordon?

    Saw pics of Flash on the Castaway body forever ago, and the updated Ming at ComicCon. I don't think we ever saw a revised Flash and these have been on preorder forever. Are they still coming? Any updated pictures I missed?

      I was really hoping they'd continue with the 7" series too...I still want Princess Aura, Zarkov and Vultan.

      So far we have three Flashes, two Mings, two Barins, two Klytus', and two Dales.
      I really hope they finish the line...

        I'm not a big fan of the movie, but that Ming looks damn cool!

          I dont like the movie either, but at least the characters (except Flash...sort of) are visually close enough to the comic strip/filmation versions that I still want them!!!

            The 7-inch line will not continue. The 8-inch retro figures had to go through another round of quality control, but they have been completed and are on the water now. Shipping should be on schedule - either late December or early January.

              That sucks about the 7-inch line.

              Any chance we'll see Vultan in the retro line? Pretty please?

                            Guys , when you have a few more figures under your belt may I suggest an alternate Ming sculpt down the road where he has that look of sly confident evil-ness?

                            Like the scene where he allows Klytus to continue torturing his daughter,
                            or when he explains to Zarkoff how his brain will be emptied
                            or when he offers Flash a kingdom but Flash refuses.

                            Perhaps dressed in military garb like when he visited the Hawkmen city. Not now but down the road. I think it would be a cool companion to this Angry Ming. Just a suggestion.
