I'm hoping for a 2nd line of Horror Reaction figs:
- Leatherface
- Mrs. Voorhees
- Dr. Loomis
- Chucky
- Patrick Bateman
- Ash Williams
- Herbert West
- The Fly
So many to choose from.
It's a long shot...but would be awesome.

I picked up the "Magic: The Gathering" Legacy figs at Target today for $7.99. I've never played the game, but I couldn't pass up basically 3 figures for the price of 1 compared to what they were originally ($24.99). I think they'll make good denizens for medieval/fantasy displays.
Also, the GoT Legacy figs were $9.99, even the exclusive Tyrion.

I bought Chandra Friday, I'm planning on getting the rest of the line, I already have Liliana and Ajani. I'd really like to get Jace and Garruk. I actively play the game so I know the characters really well. I hate the line bombed was hoping for a series two.

I too wish that we could have more options for the likes of Elspeth, Karn, or Teferi. The problem for me is that most Magic players spend all their disposable income on cards because its a card game. So at the $24 tag most player would've rather shilled out a bit more for the actual card. $15 would've been more reasonable I feel, as most planes walkers are $20+. at least the playable ones |

Yeah, my hopes of getting a Gideon and Elspeth are kinda out the window now. I guess I will have to stick to my pop vinyl Gideon. It's a shame too the figures themselves are amazing, I would of loved to see this line continue for at least 2 more waves. But I think you are right, most magic collectors either want the card or a play mat. So this wasn't something they were interested in.

Here's a pic. I broke the weather vein he came with while trying to put it in his hand.  |

Here's a pic. I broke the weather vein he came with while trying to put it in his hand. I've looked at this figure at the comic book store a few times. I just can't get over the fact it's almost identical to knockoff Sting figures I've seen at the Dollar Store for the past decade apart from a few minor details. The Legacy & Reaction figures just look so cheap, especially when their price point matches something like McFarlane Walking Dead, at the same scale, is ultra detailed and comes with several accessories per figure. |

But they are a homage to the late 70's- early 80's which as someone who was a kid back then is why I like them. First pics of the Star Trek ReActions are up:
Almost preordered them yesterday. If Kirk was part of Series one I would have, but what happens if they don't make a series 2 I'd be pissed. |

That Big Trouble In Little China better get a 6 inch Legacy run! That would be an instant purchase.

IIRC, I think Reis O'Brien (Funko employee and main man when it comes to ReActions) confirmed that the entire run was made at the same time, but was split when it came to sales.
They did the same thing with Pulp Fiction too.
Actually, Universal Monsters was originally supposed to be split (hence why they say series 1 and 2 on the back of the cards), but they wound up being shipped at the same time. Pulp Fiction and Star Trek are being split the way they intended to.
(Now watch Funko cancel the other half of Star Trek and make an ass out of me.  )

Hopefully this line makes it at retail at least until the Kirk is released because I did preorder Spock and Bones yesterday. And today I preordered Arrow and Black Canary for both me and my Brother-in-Law. I am not worried about Funco canceling it but rather retailers stop ordering it.

The issue with retail is other stores caught wind of Barnes and Nobles success. So Toys R Us and Target decide not tonly to stock online, but stock in stores. What happens? You have people picking for better prices? No... They are $9.99 everywhere. Does the local comic shops comand sales? Nope... What happens? Something that had a vilt oldschool following became main stream and people stopped buying. All TRU's , Targets, Barnes and Noble, and Booksamilloons here are chuck full of the Funko Vintage lines. Every character, every line. Its a dead gimmick in Jacksonville. |

Thanks I did see the first 8, but I am just worried retailers stop ordering the reaction figure lines before the Kirk ships.

The Evolve Legacy figures shown at Toy Fair looked excellent, here's only hoping that they have fully painted faces like the prototypes.
I think they do an overall good job painting skin tones on the Game of Thrones figures. I hated how cheap the cast skin color looked on the Magic Legacy set. Magic must have been an expensive license and must have had some clause about not doing six-inch, the 7 inch scale has to have also been a factor in the $24.99 pricepoint.
