    Non-figure related items from Palisades?

    Now that I would have a hard time throwing across the room! I'd wake up just laughing my butt off!

    Janice Figure Bumped from Wave Four?

    Hmmmm. Doesn't that spell something?:confused:

    Non-figure related items from Palisades?

    I have heard nothing of these action figure guard thingys. Sounds very cool! My ex did have a Scooby that was light sensitive. Maybe it's the same sort of thing. I really like the idea of having a Pepe contiually pestering me!

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    I don't think that all of these figures are pointed at the same buyer necessarily. Some people would prefer to buy larger characters and some mini PVCs. I don't think it will negatively effect the regular line, but it is some cause for concern. That's why there need to be differences in each...

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    You have a point there, but I do think that there is an entirely different market attracted to minis other than collectors and I don't think Ken expects everybody to buy every size. $20 is a bit restrictive, but in today's market it really isn't outrageous. It's a little over 3 bucks a figure...

    Janice Figure Bumped from Wave Four?

    Does your Bunsen need to be in a stand - it seems kind of bulky to have in the lab set? I just think they are kind of large. Yeah, my EB Piggy exclusive has had troubles standing (and such figures will have stands in the future) but placing a miniscule amount of kneeded eraser on her heels does...

    Let me be the first to welcome you to the board!

    Janice Figure Bumped from Wave Four?

    Stands None of my figures really need the stands and I'm glad they will be done away with. They are the only part about the figures I don't especially like. Kermit may need one and Ken has said those who may need the stands in the future will have them. i jsut hope they will be smaller. Now...

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    I just don't see these figures priced much under $20. Lets not forget that the Simpsons (while they are quality product) are incredibly simple when it comes to texture, paint and need for articulation. The Muppets are also a smaller market these days. I just doubt they wiil be able to get this...

    Now why are there so many exclusives?

    The store variants breath life into the series and help push retailers to carry the product while the fair exclusives increase attendance and attention at the Palisades booth. That's how I see it at least.

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    I do see your point and agree with you here. We already have the very high-end megas and 6 inch regular assortment. I really don't think they should break the $19.99 barrier for the minis. I'll buy them either way but others may not. The minis really should be the most accessible product of the...

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    Here is the direct quote from Ken's post. I think he wants to make something much more high quality and have different themes TMS being only one of them. That's what I gathered from it. The Simpsons do not have as many textures and paint detailing as the Muppets would need. It's about quality...

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    Yeah, just checked and Ken propsed 6 packs of textured and detailed mini PVC figures "much better than anything that has come before." They would retail from 24.99-29.99 because of the level of quality and paints and they would surpass the ones from DC Direct or Dark Horse. They would be all new...

    Janice Figure Bumped from Wave Four?

    Yeah, hope they make him though- maybe in his kitchen clothes with a pack-in squid! Poor guy was dropped by Pepe. :( What a diva! LOL

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    <<Mahna Mahna, Snowth one, Snowth 2, Nigel the conductor, and a penguin or Thog.>> Ahh, but that's more of a hardcore collector's series. I suspect they'd need a couple of main characters in that to make it successful. I'm thinking they will stick with their two big guns rule. If I am not...

    Janice Figure Bumped from Wave Four?

    And all those arms okay? I just hope we can see a Seymour come someday. I know he's not a big fave, but maybe in a oouple years.

    regular figures...mega sized...what about minis?

    Maybe we could even get JP, Thog, Mildred and Hilda. It really seems the only way we would see these guys. And having stackable arches all the way up the wall. eeeeeeeeeeeeeek! I have a question though. If they do make Mahna Mahna, should they make one snowth or two? Or should they release an...

    I totally want Pepe! I really wonder how they will sculpt his hair. Very tricky.

    You have uncovered my master plan! I must delete all these posts now and pretend they never happened. :eek:

    Ask Ken at Palisades

    I really didn't like how the Sideshow Dolls looked and have trouble investing in a DC line without any Skeksis. I really would like to see Palisades quality figures of them!
