Fakey blind box Ginzu figures are the in thing now, and the action figure market has never been softer. To it's credit, Playmates is making a Family Guy series EXACTLY the same as the Simpsons one. But I don't see it being half as big as the Simpsons line OR even the Mezco FG line. I don't even know if I wanna get any of them unless they sneak in a Cleveland show character in series 2.

I want to see some sort of compromise... a Kid Robot style figure line with window boxes, and NO rarity. Or even better, a Muppet Buddy pack with 2 small figures of each character, cleverly pairing fan favorites with common characters. We're getting something like that with Sesame Street...

I just want new Muppet toys PERIOD! I kinda wouldn't want to go the urban vynal route, but it really seems there's less and less of an option. I just hope Disney has a deluxe PVC line when the movie comes out.
