    What he said! Once they hit Diamond Previews, I usually have them on the site within a couple weeks.

      how much?

      How much do you guys think the POTA re-issues will cost? How many figures are being made?

      Thanks

        I am guessing they will be priced similarly to the Star Trek repros.

          There's no need to wait. For about $10-15 more than what the first two reissues (corny and soldier) will cost you can get minty vintage figures.

            Or at least that's what the eBay Seller will tell You...until it arrives in the Mail, and there's Stains on the the back of the Pant's & maybe a few pulls. Or some cracks in the Hands & Feet...or loose Elastics.

              Besides nothing beats opening up that sweet Mego goodness for the first time.

                Buy a real mego and open it. Torches aren't too expensive. I have nothing against these figures, heck I'm gonna buy a dang romulan army BUT they are not megos. Maybe kids iwho get these in 20 years will refer to them as EMEC's.

                  One reason I am hoping these figures come out can be summed up in three words:

                  Affordable Ursus boots... (If they do repro the good general as they said said he'd be early on...)

                    Is $15 too much for repro Ursus boots?

                      Repro Ursus boots

                      We aren't leading off with the General Ape due to Fox's input, but he is already in China to be tooled, so have patience.

                        Yeah, it is a little more than I'd care to pay... I guess I can't see why some of the items sold on that sight are within a reasonable price range, and some are double the price of items that, at least on the surface, it wouldn't appear to take any more time to have made...

                        And, BTW, what happened to those resin cats of the Zaius boots he was selling? Those are the Zaius boots I'd want, as they can at least be painted.

                          It's a PITA to make boots and gloves by hand. A helluva lot harder than making, say, a Thor hammer or a belt.

                          If you want to know about the Zauis boots, just call him.

                            Like Steve said...some things are more difficult to Hand cast than others. The $5.00 Boot's You see on Doc's Site...were made in China, and He had to buy Them in large quantities to sell them at that price.

                              Is that shipped from you or China? I thought the MC and Roms were already on the water arriving in the time frame you mentioned?
                              Just curious.

                                That timeframe is when Diamond expects to ship to there distributors (ie me, Joe, Starlog, etc). Distributors get email invoices and shipping notices when they ship from the Diamond warehouse.

                                Also, per another post, I will not be putting any POTA figures up for sale until Diamond officially solicits for them, which they have not.
