They were made by Mattel, a proven fuck-up in the action figure market, with certain exceptions. they just can not grasp the concept of 1:18 figures.
I think a Takara Na'vi would have been an interesting thing to see. The slight build of the species would have been well suited to the the similar build of the Microman buck.
Unfortunately here in the States big-time properties like that tend to go to equally large corporations that can pay for the license and produce LOTS of product.
I wouldn't be surprised if
Avatar II
went the way of
Harry Potter
(another line tanked by Mattel, surprise, surprise.) and ended up a limited, adult collector-centered line done by the likes of NECA, or, god forbid, McFarlane.
The vehicles looked good, but I'm a Size King. If they weren't being done painfully close to 1:18 I wasn't likely to bite.
