Best Idea EVER!
Here are the new Funko 5.5 inch Mortal Kombat figures, giving us an idea about what the head sculpts might look like on vintage-style MOTU figures.
* Imagine how cool it would be to pop the head off of a MOTU 5.5 figure and put it on your Classics figure! Or maybe even taking your Classics figure head and putting it on a 5.5 figure. Not a fan of a new head sculpt? Simply swap it out. At the very least we could be offered a Classics head pack using the new 5.5 sculpts.
* Mini comics are a must! At the very least, more of those fake mini comic covers from the Ultimates line.
* Play sets would be amazing! And also play sets for Mortal Kombat that would look great with our MOTU figures.

I saw these. They look pretty cool. You even have an idea of how they fit in with MOTU playsets, it looks like a nicely modified Fright Zone they have there.
I'm not personally interested in heavily beefing up the ranks of my vintage collection. I just want to get Skeletor and I don't really want to wait until next November or whatever until I finally find one at a store. :hoconf::skroll:
NO.....just NO.
This completely defeats the purpose of what these are meant to be. No interchangeable heads, no extra articulation. These are meant to be a continuation of the VINTAGE line. The price point for these needs to be lower for retail. This line needs to appeal to parents and kids. Parents are not buying their kids over articulated over priced figures. A $20+ price point would kill these at retail.
Don't you Guys have Classics for all of this kind of stuff?
I agree, please keep the 100% vintage style, same articulations, scales etc.
On an other way, S7 can sell extra new Classics stuffs directy on the Classics line, like extra heads, weapons etc as Mattel did with Weapons paks etc.
When does He-Ro and Eldor go on sale sometime next year I take it??
Those are def a first day buy and I thought I read somewhere that some of these might make it to brick and mortar stores?

This is boolah!
I think the heads would either look too detailed for the vintage figs or too plain for the Classics if you tried to make a sculpt that would work that way. They need to be straight vintage. Make them rubber!
Thanks Lich :)
But I am not sure to understand Something: I was thinking that the original owner did not want his copy reproduced massively and it was why he refused to share it with S7... but if he is doing few copies himself to sell them later where is the logic? The exact replica will be in circulation, why not now done by S7 with real plastic material?
So, anyway I need a replica from Master English lol
Masterenglish was not the original owner that didn't want to part with it. He bought it from the owner.
He posted more about this yesterday. Limited to 40 pieces.

$210/225 is a fair price, thanks for the link Tallstar.
So, Super7 can buy one now to have the exact replica for their mass production, S7 please do it! We need the exact vintage sculpt replica!
I’m really excited for this line to finally hit. I wish we didn’t have to wait for Fall ‘18, though.
So is the first series confirmed as He-Man, She-Ra, Skeletor, Hordak, He-Ro and Eldor?
I hope somehow we get Marlena, Lizard Man and Fang Man!
I couldn't possibly be happier with the Classics version of ELDOR, but I'm happy for you collectors who are excited for this.
So this new vintage line requires a retail partner to justify production?
Has anyone asked Super 7 to rescale the existing Classics Castle Grayskull mold and Classics vehicles to sell alongside with these vintage figures? Something a retail Partner like Wal-Mart might carry.
