Great news Brian, very excited to see how these turn out!

Postby **tlc38tlc38** » Tue Jan 14, 2014 2:50 pm

I hope Funko does several lines of Legacy & ReAction a year. I've not been this excited about action figures since Diamond Select made their last Buffy line---that's been quite a while ago. I REALLY hope they do AT LEAST 2 series of Buffy ReAction & POP! and Legacy would be awesome!

If its not doctor who then I don't know what it is unless it's star wars or if they aquire a license from someone else.
I'm sure it's going to please us.

Uh..don't we sort of already know what it is?

"Winter is Coming.."?

That could be one of them but that was let out by someone else. I don't think it's that for sure. Could be but we would still have one more major line that's a secret.

It's not Doctor Who. That's all I'll say.

Postby **haydenstorm** » Tue Jan 14, 2014 4:46 pm

Ice Pirates ?

Postby **captgarlik** » Tue Jan 14, 2014 4:53 pm

Super psyched about this line. Can't wait for the revealing.

Before joining this board, I'd never paid any attention to any line of figure release dates. Now I can't wait until the day I can throw my money at you!

I fear that unless the Buffy line is realy cheap or limited edition these will not sell well enough. The DST Buffy and Angel figures were great but they did not sell very well towards the end of the line and Buffy and Angel were still very popular at the time.

You only have to look on eBay and you can see how cheap they are being sold for and these are 6" detailed figures with lots of accessories.

I love the whole concept of ReAction but the whole point of it was to make figures from the classic 70s and 80s era of films and TV.
I love Buffy but i want to see Snake Plissken,Warriors,The Thing,Goonies,Back to the Future on retro cards. Im realy looking forward to the 80s Horror line.

Don't go breaking my heart! Honestly, the word of new "Buffy" products is what brought me to Funko. I hope they sell well so I can get at least 2 series in each line (POP! and ReAction).

I view the point of ReAction figures more as a What If Scenario instead of just trying to mimic a time period and I think that is more about what Reaction is. What if Hasbro's GI Joe line had been a dud in the 80's, and Kenner and Mego were the huge monopolies that are now Hasbro and Mattel. I think less action figures would be significantly less articulated and detailed today. It wasn't until Todd McFarlane entered the toy arena that we really got the hyper realistic super articulated figures we have now. That was the game changer that gave rise to all the Toy Biz Marvel greatness that followed, and all your NECA and Art Asylum, etc, etc goodies! I love that Funko is taking both the high road and low road approach in Legacy and Reaction! I'm sure we will see many of ReAction's more popular figures in all their fully articulated glory in the Legacy series too! It's truly exciting times ahead! On that note I hope we will see Game of Thrones and X-files in both ReAction and Legacy formats!

Can't wait to see all the legacy figures........

Postby **Pumpkin King** » Wed Jan 15, 2014 8:55 pm

Ice Pirates? Good gawd man! Haha

That is when you admit you would pretty much buy any figure made into production. Yeesh.

Hmmm so it's not Firefly. I wonder what it could be...

No official announcement yet, because to do that would have thrown the game...

I see what you did there.

It is known.
