    Craig I said it before and I'll say it again. This really breaks my heart. Here is someone willing to put it all out there for the fans and collectors and this happens. There is so much shoddy items out there that get better support and this great line is dying. If you end up canceling this line then I will no longer collect. Single dad on disability with two children one who is a special needs child I have to be careful with my money, but I was willing to spend it on Craigs Six Million Dollar Man figures. One because I love the show. Two because these are awesome figures and three this was my only hope of ever getting a Death Probe. I know that some people will think I am over reacting but why give my support to companies that mostly do not really care about our input. If this does happen I will still watch these forums to see whats going on out there but the only thing that would get me back into the game is if Craig ever got classic Battlestar. So here's to things turning around before the end of July. Thanks again Craig for making two of the best action figures to come down the pike in a long while.
    Thanks for the compliments and the kind words, they're greatly appreciated.

    I'm as shocked and disappointed as anyone about how poorly this second wave has been received. The first wave did great, and the figures were almost double the price of the wave 2 figures. I've had people complaining that the figures in the second wave were too boring. Oscar Goldman and Rudy Wells are two of the main characters, the 7 Million Dollar Man and Mr X. were both fan favorites. I guess I'm in the minority but I don't think those are boring characters.

    Regardless of why this has happened, it's not going to kill my enthusiasm for making action figures. I've got more cool projects in the works, some of which I'm doing on my own and some I'm doing with Cast-A-Way Toys.

As I've said before, I'm giving this until the end of July before officially canceling the line but at this point I think the writing is on the wall.

    I was late to the game on these and just managed to get my Wave 1 figures. Really love the nostalgia and quality of Steve and Bigfoot.

    Your figures are what got me back interested in the smdm in the first place.
    They really are cool figures.
    Is wave one still selling strong?
    Wave 1 is almost sold out, so it did very well.

    I'm really sad to hear that. Especially since my three children as excited for them as I was. My four year old girl STILL takes her Bigfoot everywhere.

    If I had a six million dollars I would give it to Craig so wave 2 (and 3 and 4 and 5) could be made.

    I'll be reaching out to the retailers again for updated numbers at the end of the month. I'm keeping my fingers crossed as well!

    Thanks! It's too bad I couldn't use Kickstarter for this line. It's more than a little depressing to see how similar lines are getting an overwhelming response from backers and something like the Six Million Dollar man is basically being ignored. Oh well, you win some and you lose some.
