    That's very short-sighted. There's not been a lot of Space:1999 merchandise, and certainly not in the 3.75" scale.

    And considering the rather cool ships, moonbase control room and accessories that could be replicated in this scale, too.

    Look at the response to your SMDM figures, and other companies' retro 3.75" lines. These are toys we would have killed to get as kids, and as adults we have the money to buy them if they're made available.

    Definitely looking forward to seeing where you go next!

      I agree, wholeheartedly!

        The production company behind the recent V remake have been developing a series called Space:2099, but I haven't heard any recent news about it. If it were up to me I'd base it on board a futuristic version of the International Space Station instead of the moon. The Eagle spacecraft that we know and love would still play a role.

          Would make more sense for a space station to be blasted out of earth's orbit than for the moon to be.

            Ah hell, how about a revival of the Turbo Tower of power motorcycles/riders? Quite a few things to mine right there. Yeah, I know there would be a lot of tooling involved, but a guy can dream, right?

              the dune movie, david lynch version

              there is a lot of fantastic character...and you could use them for star wars... it's something you must have on mind.

              there is also a lot of army builder you could do with this movie.

              imagine...an army of atreides defending their land against a legion of stormtrooper.

              there is also the omega man, but it's just a phantasm and the thing ( imagine a mac ready, an helicopter, a base playset...)

                Wow- EVERY ONE of the already listed - Starcrash, totally- plus don't forget ALIENS! Marines and civilians to battle the critters- maybe since the ALIEN line is already a thing, this could happen!

                  It's selfish, but I'd love to see a continuation of Mattel's Clash of the Titans line: A Calibos' Marsh playset (Kenner SW Dagobah-style) or Ruined Temple playset, and another wave of figures:

                  *Perseus (red tunic) with Medusa's head

                  *Andromeda with Bubo

                  *Zeus with lightning bolt

                  *Medusa with removable head & bow
                  WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.
