Zica Toys 3.75" Sectaurs Figure Line

[Jeff]

I've neglected starting a thread for this one, but thought it was time.  Back in April, Zica Toys announced plans for a kickstarter to relaunch Coleco toy line Sectaurs as a 4" figure line.

So far they have announced two figures (out of ten planned for the kickstarter) - Dargon and General Spidrax.  Click the thumbnails below for bigger pics:


No bugs are planned for Wave 1, but they are included in the Wave 2 plans if the kickstarter does well enough to justify doing a wave 2.

As a nerd who had a whole bunch of the original line, I'll be keeping an eye on this one...

Oh man the general looks awesome haha.  Stop tempting me.  I don't have it right now but I kinda like these more than I originally thot I would even without the insects.  God I bet I still have the originals somewhere.

[JediJman]

Wow, I loved these as a kid.  As a Kickstarter novice, how do I get involved with this?  I couldn't figure out anything from their FB page.

[Jeff]

The kickstarter hasn't started yet.  It should be later this year.  Zica has another 4" line (Captain Action) that they are trying to finish up before they kickstart this new line.

A few of the other 3.75-4" kickstarters have found that revealing your line-up and giving collectors a change to save up some cash pre-kickstarter is a bit more advantageous than just jumping into the kickstarter and giving folks a smaller window to see the figures and try to figure out how much they can afford to spend to support the project.

[JediJman]

Thanks Jeff!  Any idea how much these tend to run?  If I'm going to start saving up I guess I should have an amount in mind.  These figures look great so far.

[Jeff]

This was their first kickstarter.

I'm guessing prices for these would be comparable (and are comparable to most of these small 4" figure kickstarters) - $20ish for a single figure, less per figure as they build different bundles or army builder sets.

[JediJman]

Those prices are pretty good.  $100 for a set of 7?  I would be on board at that price.  $20 is about my threshold unless there's 1-2 figures that really spark my interest (looking at you Vitruvian Hacks armored skeleton).

All these years I never thought about the fact that General Spidrax doesn't wear pants.  He wears a one piece swimsuit. 

[Jesse James]

Comfortable in his own exoskeleton I guess.

They look pretty cool.

[JediJman]

Comfortable in his own exoskeleton I guess.

Buwahahaha!  Well played.

Figure #3 - Pinsor (clicky for larger image)

[JediJman]

Man I cannot wait for this line.  Another solid addition to the cast.  Any idea how many figures are planned for the first wave?

[Jeff]

They are planning to start with ten - eight named characters and then two generic army builder types.  More possible if things go well in the kickstarter.

[Scockery]

Crying shame if they don't make Stellara and Spidrax's sister.
