Six Million Dollar Man Action Figures Official Announcement!

[Rich]

Craig, The Six Million Dollar Man and Bionic Bigfoot are fantastic. I can't wait to buy this. Could you possibly make the original Charlie's Angels in the same format, only with sculpted hair, since nobody is going to brush that stuff. lol It would be the very first time in history, that a Lee Majors and Farrah Fawcett action figure could stand side by side. How cool would that be!!!

Those are all really cool suggestions and if I could make retro lines for all of them, after winning the lottery to fund the projects , I would. There are a few properties that I would really like to do, and if the SMDM line is a success I'm going to start working toward getting those licenses. What I would really like to see happen is for other companies, who already own a license or are considering acquiring one, to ask me for help in developing similar projects. That would be the ideal situation.

I have the PERFECT idea for the Fembot based off of an old line of toys whose name escapes me.... Basically make the Fembots hair removable and have the head be two sided... That way the hair covers whichever side you want hidden. Then you just pop off the hair twist the head around pop the hair back on and viola!

That's a great idea--I like that a lot.

I will spread the word to as many message boards as I can. I want to see more like these.

Craig, could BBTS be provided with images of the packaging mockup? I think the pink logo is part of the appeal, and might help pre-sell.

Awesome! Thank you very much

I'm holding off on showing the packaging until the character illustrations are finished. I wanted to use photographs like Kenner did on their Star Wars and Indiana Jones lines but it just wasn't an option. Source material for photographs of the characters is extremely limited. However, the artist who's doing the character illustrations also did the revamped logo so I think people will be very happy with the final product.

Got My preorder in! Thanks for the heads-up!

These look great!

Will they come carded? If so, will they be resealable?

Yes, they'll be on 9" x 6" blister cards just like vintage Kenner Star Wars and Indiana Jones figures. The packages won't be resealable. I know this won't be collector friendly but I think a resealable package would really take away from the vintage aesthetic I'm trying to capture with the line. The variant Steve Austin figure will be in a white mailer box, similar to what Kenner used for their promotional figures.

I'm sharing and posting links everywhere... I really want to see this work out. They are so cool! Pre-Order also coming soon.

GOOD! I hate resealable clamshells. Complete classic style is the only way to go with these!

Just order two promo sets. Unfortunately, they aren't offering cases, but if I find cases somewhere for a decent price later on, I will cancel the BBTS order, and reorder from them.

This wait is going to be excruciating. I NEED these NOW!

Actually I'm not even sure how many will come in a case at this point. Once I have that info I'll be sure to post it here.
