Movie that never got toys gets toys you pick.
 

What was the one movie that you thought should have toys and never really did. Or got the short end of stick upon delivery?

Back to the Future: Biggest hit of '85, one of the 10 biggest movies of the 80's, huge 'young' audience, never had a toyline.

Goonies: Not quite as successful as above, but a hit, and no toys at all.

SPACEBALLS!

It never would have happened, but I'd KILL to see Hasbro do a SW compatable Spaceballs line!

It would never happen, but 'The Fall'.

OFFICIAL TRAILER - THE FALL - YouTube

I would love figures from this movie.

X-men first class that would of been interesting
Ghost rider 2
X-men origins wolverine 6" series
FF4 Rotss 6inch line ?
DD would of loved a movie bullseye and Elektra
IM2 whiplash

Although saying some of these movies if they dont seem like for childern (hard to believe) or dont sell out well then we can appreciate no toys as well also due to copyright etc

Serenity.

OK, so they got three figures, but that's not even half.

Goonies DID have figures a few year ago from MEZCO, but they were terrible because they put that crappy cartoony spin on them like the Scarface figures.

And SPACEBALLS CAN NEVER have official merchandise, ever. Mel Brooks made a legal binding agreement with LUCAS to never have merchandise made from Spaceballs due to the similarities to Star Wars and the parody nature of Spaceballs. That is why there is the whole over merchandising gag in Spaceballs.

But back to the topic at hand-
Serenity/Firefly needs to have a proper figure line.
Tropic Thunder would be fun.
I am Legend or I, Robot Will smith figure
Sparticus characters -from the Starz series
Gabriel (Walken) and Lucifer (Mortenssen) from The Prophecy
Pulp Fiction figures
Paul- Clive and Graeme and Paul (you could even do a clear Paul)
The Phantom- Billy Zane
The Shadow- Alec Baldwin
Pitch Black or Riddick 3 figures
The Crow, CoA, and Salvation (Eric, Ashe, Alex)

And all of these should be done by NECA :-)

In the late 80's and early 90's so many movies got toys. I remember the Costner Robin Hood having a ton of toys. The problem with Back to the Future is that you would have two figures and the car. I don't think kids would have been into much else. Still, Knight Rider got a figure.

I know, but that doesn't mean I don't want them. The thread didn't specify "only toys that are legally possible." :D

Something I keep waiting for and feel is never going to happen: the Special Force Ops from Predator need figures! It's such a natural toy line too. Sure we have gotten a billion Predators and finally a Dutch. But what about Dillon, Mac, Blain, Billy (especially a Billy HAHAHA), Hawkins and Poncho? Even add Anna in there.

The Book of Eli is another movie I'm sure we'll never see one figure from (I can't recall a Denzel Washington figure in any form, so that may be something he does not allow). But between him, Gary Oldman and Mila Kunis there are enough decent figures there.

The Fifth Element!!!! They had really bad prototypes even shown once, but they never got made. But we ARE getting a Jaden Smith figure from that new summer movie bomb waiting to happen After Earth. Who wants that figure, I mean really??

James Bond... a good 3.75 line with cars, villans, and all the different Bonds
Zombieland
Sunny In Philadalphia

The new Bruce Willis Joe figure can fill in a bit.

Ok I'll throw out some weird choices here, but. . .

First Knight; or the Russell Crowe Robin Hood -- something with a good English medieval army

The Patriot -- something with a good British redcoat army and some minutemen with muskets; colonial Americana

These must be in 6" scale of course.

Or how 'bout (since I'm on the subject of Mel Gibson) Braveheart with a William Wallace lightning bolt shooting action?

I know, but not at the time, and as you say - the figs were a disappointment. I didn't mind the way they looked too much, but they're inaction figures meant to be used as models, and they were missing important characters.

I think it could have been maybe 4-6 figures and the car, but they didn't even do that at the time (it baffled me). Certainly when the sequels came out there was room for a whole run of figs. As you say, TV shows like Night Rider (as well as others like Dukes of Hazzard and Chips) got toys that did ok.

Big Trouble Little China:

Jack Burton
Wang Chi
Lo Pan
Thunder
Rain
Lighting
Egg Shen
Gracie Law

These would be sweet as hell to have in figure form.

Also, the Monster Squad. All of the classic monsters and you could have Drac's pimp hearse.

^^^^^^^
THIS!!!! We have had some 1/18th scale cars. With the studio always strapped for cash I can't understand why this hasn't happened yet.

Some proper Pulp Fiction action figures would have been nice, not the shoddy geoms from NECA.

Bond and Big Trouble are good calls. I'm gonna throw out 'Explorers' just because I loved the film as a kid and want toys from it!

The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly
I would love a 1/18th Blondie. The rest would just be icing.

Serenity
1/18th with a Serrnity bridge or mess playset. The crew, some reavers, and the Operative and you've got yourself a line.

The Last Samurai
That upcoming Budo from G.I. Joe makes me really wish I had a line of 1/18 samurai figures.

Stardust
I'd love a line of fantasy figures from this movie, especially of Robert DeNiro's Captain Shakespeare and his steampunk pirates and ship.

I'd enjoy having some Seven Psychopaths figures.

I really just want a Sam Rockwell action figure, and SEMI-SPOILERS

A Jack of Diamonds Killer would just be the shit.

Great call on Predator - making Dutch & his team years ago would have been awesome!

since i wasnt around in the 70s, did battlestar galactica get a toyline? I know space 1999did, but I cant think of BG getting one.

Yes Battlestar got a small one with Adama,Starbuck,Muffet,Ovian Warrior,Baltar,Lucifer,and two different Cylons oh and the Imperious Leader.

The only vechicles weren't in scale with the figures but came with their own little ones there was a Viper,Raider,and one other
