Would you buy SSC figures of the original nine Joes from 1982?

[MANDO]

The question remains though... Who would you want first? I smell new poll!

 

[thenammagazine]

I would buy them all if they were $45-50. I wish Sideshow would go back to their old prices. I have Wyatt Earp and Billy the Kid, both were $45 each and well worth it. I just think $100 -150 is a lot for a figure, especially one as plain as the original 9 Joes.

That'd be great. Would you also take a reduction in the value of your home? Say, deduct 10 years worth of equity? How about a reduced salary at work? How about they pay you what the average entry-level position in 2001 paid. Hell, if I could pay my employees a 2001 salary, that'd rock !! Unfortunately, as much as we hate inflation, we brought it on ourselves.

Sad thing is you could probably kitbash/customize most of them from existing headsculpts and gear.Only ones you might have a problem with are Scarlett and Flash.Though there are plenty of people out there who do commissions for sewing the outfits you'd need.

 

[MANDO]

Hi, Starr!

 

[StarrDogg]

Hi, Mando! You were one of the people I was thinking about when I said they could be kitbashed or customized.

Original 9? I'd buy the original 13 if they did them to reflect how they looked on the cards. I think Steeler, Clutch and especially Grandslam had some unique looks going and need 1/6 scale representation. A Hawk figure in the original style would be nice but a little out of place as his look has changed over the years. The original Hawk looked like Duke in the comics and was a blonde. The '86 Hawk, which is more recognizable, would probably be the figure they make.

I think I had most of them when I bought them back when they were first released. Today most of them are just generic. Snake Eyes and Scarlett are the stand-outs of the bunch and SE is already out, so I can't wait until Scarlett comes out. SS better do her justice and I hope they release Duke, Flint, Roadblock, Lady J, Shipwreck, Zartan, Baroness, Destro, and Serpentor.

I understand inflation, but they more than doubled the price. Why not $65-75. That might be more reasonable than $100-125. Save costs on packaging and give is blister cards! Really bring it back!!

Blister cards are not collector friendly. I don't save my boxes for resale purposes, I save them so that when I move, change up my display or am doing some customizing, my figures and their accessories have a nice, safe and easily identifiable home to stay in during the process. You don't have that luxury with blister cards.

 

[Doktor Von Evil]

Maybe if it they were uniform sets.

 

[Darth Kustomizer]

Yeppers, I sure would.

 

[Sir Tristram]

Hell yea I would.

.

I think this sums it up perfectly!

 

[Silent December]

I would love to see these made but I think after the bad taste the Endor trio left Sideshow might be a little gunshy on making these.

 

[DeltaForceChung]

I aplogize for being "late" with my reply.

My answer/reply . . .

"Does a bear dump in the woods?"

HELL YES . . . I would buy them provided they worthwhile in terms of design and quality.
