If that's the reason, then I'm even more baffled than before. They shouldn't even be thinking about big-ticket items at this point. They don't need to compound risk with more risk.
By "shelves", I meant collector display shelves, not store shelves. Stylized, anthropomorphic creatures tend to pair better with other stylized, anthropomorphic creatures (TMNT), rather than more realistic and naturalistic lines like Joe, Star Wars, HACKS, MTF, erc. It's kind of an unwritten rule that if you're doing wacky, colorful characters, you make them bigger and chunkier. |

Well, so far, they've only announced that the line exists; not that it would be driven by a Kickstarter. It might, but that's not established yet. Is the 4'' scale desirable by everybody? No. But not everybody wants a 5'' or 6'' line either; so, either way, someone will be unhappy. Boss Fight does 1:18 scale stuff, so that's what they're aiming for.
I also don't think it's been established what the extend of the brand revival is yet. If this is meant to herald a larger brand revival, then another company may pick up the 5'' or 6'' figures. If not, then we're at least no worse off than we were before, and a 1:18 line is better than nothing at all. Either way, I really want to see new blood pumped into the 1:18 scale, and out-of-the-box product like this seems like a good way to help expand the scale's horizons. Hopefully other properties will follow suit.

I wouldn't mind Boss Fight doing figures for some Bucky O Hare figures that didn't make it. Jenny comes to mind.

Cool but out of my collecting relm. I think these would be better suited for the TMNT scale.

The guy put his display choice opinion and its PHOOEY? Like as in the Hong Kong variety or just regular hogwash..?
Making them another scale would increase desirability if its in line with TMNT and Marvel Legends/Star Wars Black.. I guess Ill be a fun sucking vampire because Captain Carrot and his Amazing Zoo Crew here, is the greatest thing nobody asked for, just like Peter Jacksons King Kong movie.. Lol, so I personally wont be getting them. I thinks its valid to state that I am not getting them in this forum without worrying about putting a kibosh on their sales momentum. I do contribute to other kickstarters and Im tapped out anyways right now.. But hey, Im still hoping for the space station fuzzies from the pyramid of darkness cartoons. Maybe if they make them the stretch goal I could be enticed.. |

Looks kind of neat. I wonder how they would look next to other figures of the scale?
