Sounds interesting. Too bad it's unlikely that they'll be able to do any Star Trek figures in this Legacy line...

Very interesting indeed. If the way they absolutely bomb the market with the POP stuff is any indication, I wish them good luck, because we can always use more 6 inch stuff that isn't 100 bucks a figure.

Can't wait to see what they have in mind!

Hopefully they won't be like Dave Vonner, and promise something for two years and not deliver....

The 6" line has huge potential if its the right characters and comparable to SWBS 6" detail/articulation. They got some promising licenses and put out some excellent characters in the pop line. So im very interested to see were they go with this because neca needs some good competition out there.

I'll be watching their announcements like a hawk! There is definitely a ton of potential here. I already like the ReAction stuff, so any licenses done in this style will be A-OK with me. A line of 6" stuff along the line of SWB? Count me in! Hopefully detail and articulation is there. It took NECA yeeeeears to get to a point of incorporating good articulation into their product. Hopefully Funko can knock it out of the park from the get-go. I'm a little hesitant to get over-excited, but very hopeful.

Firefly, Back to the Future, The Rocketeer, and soooo many more cult classics created in the same style as the Star Wars Black 6" line?!?! This just made my day! If this actually happens, this line could be as revolutionary as Marvel Legends were about a decade ago! I'm skeptical only because I haven't purchased any Funko products (I've never been impressed by their bobble heads), but then again, many of us never imaged that Toy Biz and its history of sub-par (but still oddly fun and charming) figures could have pulled off a great line like Legends. This is BIG, guys! BIG! Lol, I need to sit down and process this information!

Actually, those are two different things. One line is their legacy line, like the upcoming Alien ReAction figures. The other will be the 6" line. There may be some crossover, but I wouldn't expect all of them.

Yeah, a went a little overboard with enthusiasm and wishful thinking, lol, but as long as they have the rights to those aforementioned franchises, hopefully a few will be made into 6" figures. But yeah, I'm not anticipating that all of those franchises are going to cross over and get 6" figures. It sure would be nice though...
