Most Wanted 1/12 scale figures

Harry Potter did get a pretty extensive line over in the UK, it seems, from the company Cards Inc./PopCo. Obviously, there's even more of an appeal to British kids than to American ones, so it makes sense they'd have a bigger toy market, but still. Such a shame that things became what they did with that property; don't think I could ever in good conscience buy anything related to that franchise ever again.

I would still like a Firefly line. The old and new Funko Pops and the little Mini statue things are cute, but I'd love articulated figures. Again, Funko's Legacy line was pretty nice, at least for the time, but as usual, they only got around to half the crew. Best AXN was supposed to take a stab at a couple figures, but never got around to it. Hey, if we got a line of figures for The Expanse, albeit crowdfunded, maybe the same could be done for the Firefly crew!

Man, Firefly feels like the perfect size cast for a crowdfunded version like the Expanse had. And for all the flaws that go along with Joss, I think seeing that cast in GOOD action figures would be a delight.

Harry Potter was/is a money printing machine. I do think figures would've done well if presented in the right way, but not as esoteric collectibles. The license was a huge money maker for Lego, so we know at least until Joanne shot her legacy in the kneecap peopel would buy Harry Potter toys.

I'd love a good Game of Thrones line, too, but it may be the wrong niche for six inch scale figures. I have their wargame not to play the wargame but to paint the character minis and that sucker is going STRONG and sells pretty well. GoT can do merch, but it's gotta be the right merch.
 
There are a number of RPGs I would love figure lines from just because of how wild the imagination is. I dont game at all, but I enjoy getting into the art and lore. A couple recent ones I've been looking at are Wildsea and Mutant Epoch.

It's the next major project of Ryan Coogler. The only statement from the original cast is from Gillian Anderson, who expressed outright faith in Coogler's work and said she told him to call her. Carter is also all for the new show, from the statements I've seen. Carter did use the word "spin-off", so it may have the chance of bringing back Mulder, Scully, etc... though I'm completely content if the main leading cast is new. The world's changed a lot since the show aired, after all.

I like the idea of a spin-off, personally. Have smaller roles that Mulder, Scully, and Skinner can play, but still be a presence in the show, with some new characters to revolve around. Coogler being involved makes me far more interested than I would be otherwise.
 
I was 11 pages too late to get in on the Malibu discussion in the Marvel Legends thread, but I wanna at least say here that I would hardcore buy Ex-Mutants figures, lol...

Another property I thought of that I REALLY would love to have figures of: The Rocky Horror Picture Show! I'd buy each and every character, in each and every costume.

Along the same lines, someone give me a line of Phantom of the Paradise figures!

I can't believe I'm not the only one here who knows Wildsea. I have the book!

Do you know about the canceled NECA line from yesteryear? I mean, it was from back in the "staction" figure days, but:

Rocky Horror Picture Show/NECA

In 2010, NECA almost got in on the Rocky Horror Picture Show mania as they revealed teaser images of two action figure prototypes featuring Dr. Frank N’ Furter; the “sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania” along with his faithful handyman, Riff-Raff. These would’ve been sculpted at 7...

I feel like I'd unironically take a True Blood line as well. Wouldn't need to go too deep- I'd be content with just a couple waves of the biggest characters, but I'd absolutely take a Lafayette and Pam if no one else.

I haven't watched the show, but the cast is very hot. I considered watching it for that reason alone several times.
