I would also like to point out that TOE pointed out the Modern Kurgan usually sells on eBay for $150+....

To answer the question - the line tanked badly.

The license was not renewed and the licensor requested all mention of it be stricken from the records.

+ Bad choice of character from Sideshow, no Sean Connery rights, poor Kurgan sculpt.

True, true and true.

Not to mention Sideshow kinda half assed the line. Modern Connor and Ducan where done well but they really didnt put much into the origins figures. Connor had no fur, no shield and was basically Modern Connor in a kilt.

All in all Sideshow handled the line poorly, which lead to poor sales, which lead to the end of the line.

Which was sad because the 1st two figures the Kaz-Bar!

That was my opinion as well. IF Origins Connor would have been fully decked out properly... it would have sold very well. The Origins figures, due to lack of everything, killed the line. That and the lack of Ramirez and Medieval Kurgan.

well then all we can ask is hot toys to do the line there sculpts are cool. and we could get woman characters like tessa.someone just take my head now.

Even with the lines short comings, the 3 figures I have from the series are all really kickass (mod connor, med connor and mod Kurgan). Just a bummer there was no Ramirez or...

Medieval F'n Kurgan!!!

Happy OKTOBERKURGANUARY!!!​

we need a new duncan mccleod with a severed connor head then the fans will realize the succesful part of the movies is gone and there won't be any of him coming out again..the series was great .It had it's up and downs but was success....where is ritchie or dawson or methos. they talked about these characters.
