    I understand why they went with the standard body, but it would have been cool if the two Venture Brothers went on teen bodies.

    But we did get the new "Hulk body" out of Brock Samson.

    What license would a teen body be essential? Speed Racer? Johnny Quest perhaps?

      Well, to be perfectly honest, Doc didn't need licenses to create bodies in the past. I know you're just looking for opportunities to move this decision along...

        I'd probably buy one or two. I sold a decent amount when CTVT had them, but probably 5 percent of sales compared to adult males at best. Females sold much better and I got requests/inquiries for Hulk bodies on a weekly basis. I suspect Doc would like to see some of his investment recouped on the other bodies first before ordering up thousands more.

          This just makes no sense to me. There were more original figures that used the teen body, than there were those that used the Hulk body. How can there not be a demand?

          Five percent at best? I think doc would do better simply because his bodies are made with customizers in mind, and those CTVT figures flat out suck.

            I'd use several--a teen repro body is a warranted addition to Doc's line-up.

            Very glad to see the muscle & child bodies, btw. CTVT is no comparison.
