And who didn't always want an Alice figure from The Brady Bunch?

Alice has more articulation than the average Star Wars action figure?

Yeah that's not too cool, although to me that articulation looks like crap.  How could they do a Brady Bunch line and not do a Mike Brady...time to get the petition machine agoin'

There's a brady bunch joke that could be made here.  Having to do with Jan's packed in accessories, but it would probably be considered bad taste :-X

Feh!

Just like every other toy line, the Happy Days line starts out good, but ends up with an assortment of all Fonzies!

Series 1:
Fonzie (classic)
Ritchie
Ralph
Potsie

Series 2:
Joanie
Chiachi
Mr. C
Mrs. C

Series 3:
Mechanic Fonzie
Bike Gang Fonzie
"Evel Kenevil" "Fearless" Fonzie
and, appropriately the last one
"Jumping the Shark" Fonzie

Who'd they take their marketing strategy from?  Mattel?  Hasbro?  They crank out a few villians in wave 2, then it's all Fonzie!   >:(

This is hysterical! A great gag gift for Munsters fans! I might look into the Munsters line. I always liked the show. Too bad they only laster two seasons. :-[

Would the diner owner be the "Ice Cream Maker Guy" of the Happy Days line?

Nah. He's more like Chewbacca. Always there, but has very few speaking lines. The Fonz would be Han Solo.

So when do I get a Jack Tripper doll? They did Somers in the 70s.

Eesh that is pretty bad...not sure why they are doing these exactly or how big of a market there actually is for Munsters, Brady Bunch and Happy Days dolls :-\
