    Does Diamond still hold the Zica Buck Rogers body molding?

    I suppose no one will likely see this, but with Diamond Dist. apparently close to being sold, I was wondering if they still had the 8-inch body molds they bought from Craig many years ago. As I recall, they ended up selling the remaining complete Buck Rogers figures but never brought new product to market. I think they showed protos of Sylvester Stallone or something using the body, but again, no actual product.

    Anybody know for sure? Would love to see someone get a good deal on the tooling and bring something out. Those were great base bodies for barbarians and such.

    yeah, as I recall, they had a proto of Sly from expendables but it never came to light. they probably do still own the rights. maybe once Diamond sells we will see something

      I have a few of those somewhere. I never did make time to do a FTC Conan conversion with one. You right about being appropriate.

        Totally agree. While not perfect, that is still probably my favorite Mego bandless body.

          They seemed to just drop it entirely, such shame, it was well made.
