    Well Craig, I know I didn't want to buy the figures b/c of the cost, but I did buy red Steve and Bigfoot in a two-fer deal on Amazon, ($22). I like them!

    Very sad Series 2 wasn't supported by the market for whatever reasons. Thankful for the figures we did get, though.

    But, now that door has closed...onward to Captain Action. Here's hoping for a successful Kickstrter!

    I'm planning to use Kickstarter for the Captain Action line so it will be interesting to see how that goes.

    Man, such a bummer. Thanks so much for one of my favorite figures, Bionic Bigfoot, though!

    Thanks guys, and thanks also to everybody who supported this line. I had a lot of fun developing the figures but it's time to move on and focus on other things. I've got more cool projects in the works for Action Jackson, Captain Action, and another property that I think a lot of people will be very excited about.

    Yes, the line has definitely been cancelled. Retailers will be notified by the end of this week to remove the images of the wave 2 figures.

    And so much for Diamond Select doing their own series, I mean they were hyping the 40th anniversary of the television show and yet they have not pulled the trigger on any figures yet. Nothing at SDCC, unless I missed them!

There is no way to get some help from Bif Bang Pow on these, like a 50/50 partnership so your costs would not be so extravagant. However, this might not help the situation, I mean if people aren't buying they just aren't gonna buy no matter who the manufacturer is. Just really wanted that second series.
    Partnering with Bif Bang Pow would be great but they know the situation with these figures and would rather not take the risk. I was actually contacted buy another company who wanted this assortment as an exclusive but once I gave them the numbers they quickly realized it wasn't a good idea.

    This is how I thought it would be with the Buck Rogers figures and it didn't happen, which was a very costly and stressful learning experience.

    You sound like a good guy, Craig, and I appreciate you taking the time to read our posts and reply to them. I'm really impressed with the attention to detail given to Wave 1, right down to which side the pocket goes on Steve Austin's jogging jacket. I don't normally collect the small figures, took a gamble and very happy when I got them. I can only imagine how great Wave 2 would have been, especially Mr. X. Kenner's Maskatron was great, but your version as well as Bif Bang Pow's would have actually looked like John Saxon and the evil robot with face off. Sounds like neither will be released, truly a shame. I'm sure they would have sold well when people saw the love you put into the design of the final product. And as a kid I always wondered why Kenner didn't make a Dr. Wells action figure, I would have got him for sure. Was happy he finally got made by BBP, was hoping to add your versions to my collection too. Well, thanks for the neat blue version of Steve Austin, I'll always cherish him along with Bionic Bigfoot, a mini version of Kenner's. Take care and good luck with your other toy lines. I hope you see this thread has had more posts than any others on the Zica page recently, says something about the fans interest in this line. Lots of disappointment no more figures are coming evidently.
