    I've got almost a year left with license so hopefully within that time frame I'll find a way to keep the line going.
    hopefully you'll find a way to get Wilma and the Vorvon in there before the license expires (since you have the vorvon's clothes prototyped)

    Well, I wish you the best of luck, my friend.

    There aren't enough good quality figures like yours out there, and that's the sad truth.

    Maybe we can try putting the word out to places that sell action figures, like comic shops. I haven't really seen them in any of the ones that I patronize.

    TRU is out. Look at the way they DIDN'T sell the Mattel style figures.

    FAO Schwartz, while a good place to buy stuff, has only a given amount of room for action figures, and they'd probably demand too much money.

    Grrrrrrr! I HATE the fact that we can only do so much to help you out, Craig.

    Not only that, I think his prices were in the outrageous range.

    It's too bad that no one else was selling them. There were at least 40,000 people there, and I KNOW that quite a few of them were fans of the show.

    If I had the money, I'd get a booth next year, and have a bunch for sale, as well as take orders for them.

    Craig, are you guys going to have a booth at ComicCon here in NY this year?

    Maybe you can take a bunch of orders that way, as well as sell a few.

    There's got to be a way to keep this line in production.

    Trust me when I say that I'll do my absolute best to try and find a company that will at least make Hawk. Maybe one of the larger online retailers would be interested in doing it as an exclusive. Start putting pressure on Joel over at Big Bad Toy Store, just don't tell him I told you to do it.
    OK, we have a mission...
    Letting retailers know that we want more BR. Maybe they'll finally wake up.
    For me, the BR figures are top notch all the way (from figure to clothing to packaging), so I've bought three Bucks so far. We can all make a difference!
    Buy some for your collection, or for resale, or for the perfect Christmas gift.

    Do an interview, have lots of pics to go with, discuss upcoming goodies.
    ToyFare stopped publishing a while back... so that's evidence that an ad there would have done little to reach us
    One of the old editors is working over at DST and is a good chum, but that doesn't help with Hawk.

    Toyfare went out of business

    Hey, more people should jump on the bandwagon!

    MAKE HAWK REAL!

    Yeah, and like timb said, the BR figures are really amazing and I also love the blank bodies. Thank you!

    I put full page color adds in a few magazines and I've also done a couple of interviews.

    For what it's worth, and I'm not even much of a Buck Rogers fan, these were some of the most impressive meticulously detailed 8" figures I've seen to date. From the sculpting to the clothing minutae they were beautiful.
    Thanks for the compliment, I really appreciate it. Based on all of the positive feedback the figures have received I can at least say I succeeded in making a quality product.
