I can see how someone would look at it and wonder what it is. I think we all know it’s unlikely that Hasbro will be releasing any O-Ring figures in the near future.

And to be clear I wish hasbro would: 1. keep making the classified line the way they have. It's amazing for a 6" line. I can't wait to actually have Zartan and blowtorch. 2. A modern line like the 25th anniversary line. 3. A classic line recreating the 80s figures and vehicles. 4. Posters of the classified artwork. 5. Cool backgrounds for photography and dioramas. I'm sure hasbro reads these forums... Maybe start a group that tries to imagine what should be done. Oh I almost forgot, Thanks for your kind words |

Sort of looks like Doc has a grey mustache and give him an almost Carl Weathers vibe. Not mad the glare of that lighting!

I’m SURE this has been covered, but just wanna say, how the hell cam MOTU, Ghostbusters, SW, predator (probably alien)...all get actual retro figures, but Joe (and us got screwed with) these (albeit cool to see 33/4” on pegs again) modern ones? Rush to retail? Don’t ask don’t tell?

I'm sure Hasbro could decide it'd be worth re-releasing the o-rings down the line at some point. Maybe like these little gift set type things you mocked up. I think it just comes down to opportunity cost. Right now they can use some existing molds to easily create some product in the 4" line while testing the waters in the 6" line. If they release the O-rings in a year or so we'd all re-buy the same characters again so they don't have much to lose taking this route.
These are really cool. I'd suggest softening the drop shadows (looking at examples they never have a crisp shadow). The distance the shadows are offset also makes the figures feel like they're pretty far from the card surface. And it'll better match the lighting on the characters. And maybe get some more gradient in the foe bubble cover. And maybe some more organic reflection and specular. Cool stuff.

The mock ups of the 4 packs are really cool and they look great.
You should start a thread dedicated to these and post them there.
