EMCE 8" Kiss?

^^^^Youch!!!

[BifBangPow! JLabs]

We gave them a proposal a while back. Let's just say that Kiss would have cost more than all of our current licenses combined.

I think it could happen in the future.

KISS superheroes
KISS Zombies
KISS Alter Egos
KISS Era outfits
KISS Love Gun Girls

KISS can't be the only ones in their universe, so they'd need some Villians or Guardians (The Elders)...

ohh the possiblities...

It would have to be very broadly released in order to justify it's existance. The two biggest factors working against it are:

1) Fatigue- KISS action figures have really been done to death. McFarlane probably reaped the greatest reward in the 1990s with his stuff, it's been a steady decline since.

2) The death of record chains, the collector action figure market really got hurt by the down turn of these guys.

I think KISS is such a huge merchandising juggernaut, it would be next to impossible to make a limited line of eight inch figures that could justify the licensing costs.

Last I heard it was $100K in advance.

[The Shadow]

Gene Simmons would probably allow that, for a modest fee

I am just guessing that McFarlane still holds the action figure licensing. I could be wrong however.

Yeah. The impression I get is they do everything w/McFarlane.

I'd love to see that. But I doubt it would happen. But I'd love to see it.

Did I mention that I'd love to see it?
