i got busy with the holidays and forgot to go on. I do not see any posts for December 21 on the blog so I don't know what the deal isComment

From the "Ask DST" page on the Art Asylum website:
"Kevin
I understand that Diamond Select purchased the Zica toys line of Buck Rogers, including the body design. Just wondering if there will be any continuation of the line that Zica started.
DST CHUCK: Kevin that’s not exactly true but close enough I suppose. Right now we have no concrete plans for a more realistic 8” cloth line but we have given it some thought."

I'm starting to think that they never actually acquired the license. If they did, I feel like DST would have at least given the property the Mini Mates treatment. The amount they paid for my tooling and inventory was a lot less than what it would take to develop and produce a new body from scratch so it looks like they were primarily after that.Comment

I wonder if the fact that they already have one "style" of this scale with their retro figures is keeping them from fully exploring this? I also wonder if the cost of producing more detailed clothing is more than they'd want to do for a line like this? I actually just ordered the two figures produced... a shame there seems to be little to no chance of more coming.Comment

I'm VERY impressed by these, and am looking forward to more figures from ZICAComment

Hopefully they'll get the line back on track but I have a feeling this is just an attempt to sell the excess inventory I sold them.Comment

If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.Comment

Any chance of seeing the return of Mego style 3 3/4" Buck Rogers figures? Hoping the SMDM figures do well.Comment
