    Meaning 3 3/4" scale on Kenner style cards like their other lines? If so, then another retro action line just like the Alien and Aliens line. Great to see this style back with manufactures. Sometimes over articulation can be too much when minimal style works just as well.
    Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing. This has always been my favorite scale, even before Kenner Star Wars figures. I had more fun playing with my MEGO Comic Action Heroes than I did with the 8" figures.

      Any plans of little playsets like a shrunk down version of the Bionic Transport? That would be really cool.
      You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            Wow!!!
            I have never been interested in 3-3/4.
            My toys were all 8" & 12". Never knew about Comic Action heroes or Pocket Heroes, and I was 13 years old when Star Wars came out.
            These SMDM 3-3/4 might be my first ones!

              i'm not even a 6MDM fan, and this sounds very appealing to me. Awesome idea!

                If the line does well enough I'd at least like to do a Venus Space Probe and an O.S.I Headquarters.

                  Great idea! I think one of the huge benefits of the 3.75 scale is the possibilities of playsets and vehicles.

                    Now this right here, Craig, just sent shivers down my spine with excitement. Finally, a Venus Space Probe from a current ToyCo. It would make up for the Twiki fer sure.

                    I hope it wall works out, Craig. Cheering you on. Cheers!

                      I like SMDM, but I hope this opens doors for other retro 4" lines. Especially Buck Rogers, Battlestar Galactica, V, Kolchak, X-Files, Bonanza, Magnum PI, etc.

                        Any chances for any of those? Oh and Logan's Run and Planet of the Apes?

                          That's awesome news Craig. Consider me in.

                            There's a few on that list I'd like to take a shot at. It will be interesting to see what other companies, if any, decide to try and test the waters with this format.

                              I'm in for one of each. Two of each if the card art is classic Kenner style with big photos of the character.

                                That would be amazing! Congrats Craig! I'll be in that line to purchase.
