So, I'm making a Lady GaGa custom. I figure Cobra needs some entertainment. But I also plan on making a Katy Perry, Stallone, etc. figures.
So, would you buy "Hasbro Celebrities"? Basically, they could reuse the 25th Gi Joe sculpts with new heads. There could be a "classic" celebrity line and a modern celebrity line. This would be great for people who want to collect celebrity memorabilia and more custom fodder for us. The package could be similar to gi joes with a factoid on the back about the celebrities favorite things to do, movies they've starred in, etc. What celebrities would you like to see? |

I'd buy some. I want me a Kurt Russell action figure!
And a Jennifer Love Hewitt figure. May be the only way I could ever say I have JLH in my room. |

Never. While Im sure it might present the opportunity for some interesting fodder, I hate most celebrities with a burning passion.
Also, right now Hasbro is in money mode, and thus the figures they are producing are specifically aimed at children, primarily boys. With that said I dont think many kids would know who most of the people are, or care for that matter. I know I wouldnt. With that said, if there WERE a line like that. For sure, I would buy all the characters from my favorite childhood movies. Kurt Russell, Michael Madsen, Charlie Sheen, Tim Roth, Ray Liotta, DeNero, Ken Foree, Tom Savini, Kiefer Sutherland, Mel Gibson (who wouldn't want a Mad Max Rockatansky figure?!) and a whole load more. EDIT: Charles Bronson! How could I forget Death Wish! More over, I feel like a "Celebrity" line depicting favored characters and icons from various movies would fair better then a Chris Brown and Riahanna Karate chop action comic pack...

As long as we'd get some new head sculpts I'm all in.

Depends what celebs. I actually have a few of the music legends figurines. Got em on sale at TRU. No posability at all, but they're Joe scale. So far I got Run DMC with Slash on guitar, which at some point will make an epic dio set.

I'd want that for one man, and one man only-
Snake Pliskin!

I'd be on board. But the way things go, i'd be staring at peg after peg full of Rosanne Barr figures, while hopelessly looking for my Gary Coleman in Security Guard outfit....
