Title: LOST Action Figures?
Post by: Brian on April 21, 2006, 04:04 PM
An interesting rumor (http://www.thegd.com/news.asp?ID=695) reported over at TheGD.com:  Apparently, there are rumors swirling on a number of message boards that McFarlane might be doing a line of LOST action figures or statues.  Apparently, Jorge Garcia (Hurley) mentioned in a recent interview that McFarlane had been there doing scans of the actors.  Just speculation and rumor at this point, but interesting either way.  I'm a fan of the show, but I think my wife would shoot me if I wanted to collect these :).  I could see where they could be popular though, if it happens.

I'll get a few, if they have a nice pose, because we all know how Mcfarlane is with articulation...

It would be cool if they all came with a pice of the plane as a base, and they all connected.  :)

That may be pretty cool. I would consider, although i think my girlfriend would get them before i would.

I'd rather have a Jack Bauer fig.   ;D

McFarlane figures = statues

I'll get them if they do make them. I don't know if I'll get them all, but I'll definitely pick up a Sayid and Locke. I think that McFarlane is a great company to make these.

Not sure if you guys saw, but the MSRP of these figures is $15-20.

Regular McFarlane's figures are $10.

BigBadToyStore already has them up for pre-order...

Lost Series 1 - Set of 6 - $64.99 (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=MCF11104&mode=retail)   (less than $11 each plus shipping)

Lost Series 1 - Boxed Set (http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/product.aspx?product=MCF11103&mode=retail)   (no idea what this is yet)

Boy, that MSRP seems a bit steep, but then again I guess I've never really collected any of the McFarlane stuff before (other than one small scale NBA 2 pack).  So, these aren't so much action figures are they are statues the way it looks.  I have to say, being a fan of the show, I'm halfway tempted although the price (and the Mrs.) will probably keep me away from these.  That initial pic of the Charlie figure does look pretty good though.  Heck of a finale last night too :).

The article mentioned something about replica props being included w/ the fig.  That might explain the higher price.

Each figure comes with a prop from the set and also a sound chip. That box set is the outside of the hatch that comes with a bunch of "mini" figs.

Finally! an action figure of Shannon in her Bikini!!!!! ;D ;D ;D

I know I want to get these I love the t.v show and the one figure I've seen looks really good.  The box set from what I've herd is of the hatch that comes with figures.  I haven't seen it yet though.

If anyone is interested, McFarlane has put up a bunch of pics of the first series of LOST Figures (http://spawn.com/toys/series.aspx?series=318).

While I don't collect McF figures personally, he has some of the best designers/sculptors in the business:

Just how do they justify calling them Action figures?

I saw all of these yesterday at my local TRU. Pretty cool, but not my cup o' tea. Hell I don't  even watch the show.   :P
