    Big movie means more expensive license, or an exclusive one. Zombies, despite there renewed popularity mean free or comparatively miniscule licensing costs.

      Do "Zombies" actually need to be licensed if they are not associated with a film? If not...which I think is the case....that is the the most cost effective figure to make of the two.

        After the poor reception to the 2001 Apes movie, and the fact that
        the new movie was not promoted much by Fox, no toy company
        wants to risk the investment money.

        There were no POTA toys in 1968 - it took 5+ years and the
        sequels to build the audience. MEGOS didn't come out until
        after Battle.

          I was there!

          I remember all the great 70's Apes stuff. Particularly the ship in a bottle type of models those were great.

          Look, I am not talking about a million new Apes figures, but I really think two more waves would show integrity to future EMCE lines. Not to mention I do think the new movie is going to be much more of a hit than we all first thought.
