A Toy Story

[captain supermarket]

Earlier this month, McFarlane Toys released its third line of figures in the Movie Maniacs Series of toys. Included are Ash, Snake Plissken, Shaft (the Sam Jackson version sadly), The Fly, Edward Scissorhands, and a couple of figures of the thing from The Thing.

Now that I have the Ash, Snake, and Edward toys, I'm hoping for McFarlane to release some other of my favorite movie characters in plastic form. My toy wishlist would include: Alex from A Clockwork Orange, the Delorian from Back to the Future, and Lola from Lola Rentt (just trying to show off my german here.)

What are your picks for movie toys that have never been made? (Where there ever any Back to the Future toys? And a new Robocop toy would also be cool.)

Check out the Movie Maniac threads in both the Creature Corner and Action Reaction boards.

I still want a Carrot Top action figure, and i think Planet of the Apes action figures would be fun, like a Charlton Heston toy that would say "Take yer filthy paws off me, you damn dirty ape." Blues Brothers toys would be fun and a Sean Connery toy (though that might exist). And though it'll never happen some Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas toys would be a lot of fun

I want to see Indiana Jones figures, and some of the cars from the Mad Max movies. They're already making figures, so cars are the next logical step, right? i hope so.

And would it kill Hasbro to re-release the original Transformers?

There already is figures based on Planet of the Apes. Look for them in the discount aisle at your local Toys R Us...

I want a Regan fig from "The Exorcist", she could spit vomit and say those filthy phrases. Of course her head would spin around. She could come equiped with a crusifix for you know what.

I think they should have new Terminator 2 toys and maybe some Big Trouble in little China toys. Like a Kurt Russell doll that says I'm here to kick ass and chew bubble gum and I'm all out of gum

[Django]

As cool as a Kurt Russell "kick ass/chew bubble gum" figure would be, just imagine how cool a RODDY PIPER figure with the same sound chip would be...

beetlejuice. with exploding face, body spikes, and carnival arms(+ hat)

[Thomas]

I thought they had already made some T2 toys.

I want a pee wee Herman doll. You set it in front of a video and watch it crank 'er up.
I think they're going to be called the "smack your peewee, whack your peewee," dolls.
I guess it'll have to be made out of "hard" plastic!

Geez, from the topic, I thought for sure this was about Scotty Thompson: from child star to porn star. Thank you, E!, for your compelling programming.
