Sure, everyone loves Galactica. So many companies have had the license over the years, there’s a ton of stuff out there. At the top of the heap was Joyride’s Cylon and the ships. Galactica fans can be happy. I’m actually a bit disenchanted with Emce’s figures, for picky reasons like the Cylon’s shoulders aren’t broad enough, their hands too small, and Muffit just looks weird.
I love what Zica is doing with the Six Million Dollar Man… just bums me out that they sold the Buck license. And isn’t Buck much more fun than Galactica? I mean really? I appreciate that Zica got in over their heads to provide two of the best figures ever – Buck and Tigerman (and how awesome was their planned HAWK?!) - I just wish it continued way into their new 3 ¾” format.
Buck fans have been robbed practically from the beginning of really good product!
What I would love to see:
A 10 to 16” CRICHTON figure with lights and sounds. How easy would it be to sculpt? Hell, he used to be a cheap prop on the show before they turned him into a character! An extending neck, tilting head and sliding arms and sound bytes of his wry temperament… please don’t tell me I’m the only one that would love this.
A 10” to full size Dr. Theo with lights and sounds. Wouldn’t this be relatively inexpensive to make also?
Any size Twiki with light and sounds – I can see this being expensive to produce. But I don’t know s**t about making toys.
A 3 ¾ line that includes obscure characters like the Gorgon, Marla Landers, Twiki’s girlfriend the Gold waitress drone, and of course a Huer, Wilma & Ardala that actually remotely resemble them (unlike Mego’s).
I don’t suppose there’s much chance of all this happening, but thanks for reading this silly rant!
