They can't be done yet. They just can't. They wouldn't stop before they gave me a She-Ra on Swift Wind, right? RIGHT? :eek:

I hope Dorbz Ridez are still around they fit so well on shelves and desk. Really hoping for a Talespin dorbz ride, Jurassic Park jeep or car, and more star wars vehicles.

I've been taking this "down time" to get the assortment of 60's batman ridez. Only need the Chrome version.

I think Princess would give a hearty "AMEN" to that lol As would I, I was really looking forward to that one! The Hercules Pop Ride gives a hint at how cool it could be!

Any bets on which Wacky Races Ridez will be on tap this convention season? Whatever comes out, I hope that they are more in scale than the Creepy Coupe was.
From wikipedia:
-Professor Pat Pending, a scientist, in The Convert-a-Car
-Red Max in a car/plane hybrid; called The Crimson Haybailer
-Sergeant Blast, and Private Meekly in an army tank/jeep hybrid with a small steamroller wheel attached to the front, called The Army Surplus Special
-The Ant Hill Mob, gangsters, in The Bulletproof Bomb
-Lazy Luke, a hillbilly, and Blubber Bear, in The Arkansas Chugabug

I hope not I personally like the dorbz ridez, they don't take up as much space as the pop rides.

I much prefer the Dorbz rides though- they’re smaller and take less space so I like them. I hope we get some more, even if it’s just for con exclusives (preferably shared :D)

Maybe they'll make a Dorbz Ridez with Hawkeye and War Machine in the Quin-Jet to make up for them STILL not having Dorbz.

I've heard from a reliable source that Ridez are indeed going away. But it was a darned good run, and now I don't have to work at keeping my collection at 100% :-)

Well, if that's true, it's disappointing but understandable.

Was still hoping for more Wacky Racers. And still hoping to see a Specialty Series Dick Dastardly to go with the Muttley Ridez.

The reasons I heard were the same reasons some of us have guessed about here before- profit margins are too small, boxes are too big (more expensive to ship, and stores don't like how much shelf space they take up), slow sellers.

They're still making Pop Rides so there's still hope! Being a motorcycle nut I fully approve of ANY ride subject on a motorcycle :D

Yikes! I'm both saddened and excited at the same time. I have quite an extensive collection of Dorbz Ridez, and maybe now I can realistically consider getting to 100%...

I hope not. I mean the ones I have are mostly con exclusives and the prices are crazy high for those ones. I do think some of their better ones were con exclusives or shared con exclusives.

i would love to see your collection of ridez. To the post from what i have seen the whole dorbz line seems to be slowing down a bit unfortunately.

This is an older pic but this is how I have them displayed in my bedroom right now. I was working on a renovation of a room in my house to add more display area, I got it half done and it stalled because I've been so busy with other stuff. But once I finish it I will move this case in there and add two more and display my entire Ridez collection like this.

I enjoy the dorbz ridez so much more than the pop rides. The pop rides are a little to big and don’t display as well in my opinion.
I am still waiting for my serenity dorbz ride announced two years ago now at this point, I think.

Overall it seems like dorbz are hitting a slow down. I know there are new ones that still come out but it definitely seems like there has been a shift. I really hope the dorbz line continues as strong as it has. And I hope the rides keep coming.

Dorbz aren’t selling too well in general, and I’m guessing it’s less expensive to still make regular dorbz instead of dorbz ridez. Sigh at least I can say I have the complete set now
