Title: Super 7 ReAction Line
Post by: Tamer on February 07, 2014, 09:12:49 AM
Now this is the first line to get me excited besides Star Wars in awhile!

I just got an email in today about a line of retro action figures from EE:

I see a lot of enthusiasm for these figures, but honestly I just don't get it. All lines feature 5 POA figures, just like the SW Mission/SL line. It seems to me the release of these ReAction figures is well timed with the release of the Mission series, trying to get some support for the Mission series.

It's cool to see action figures from those great 80s flicks, but not like this.

Yeah, it would have been better, but these sure do look a lot better to me on vintage style cards.

Forgot to tell Shawn that I seen some  of these this weekend at comicon. Cool idea but with the seventies articulation, its a pass.

I have a feeling these were made for sheer carded nostalgia. It doesn't make much sense to get these for openers in my opinion. Course I bet the folks here could spruce em up.
