Toys That Time Forgot - Kickstarter For a Book of Unreleased Toys

The unreleased figures for Playmates' TMNT lines could easily fit a quarter of that page estimate alone....

Hmm...30,000$ just for printing?! seems weird. I really like the idea though, which is really fun and depressing at the same time (the magic of unreleased toys). It's also bummer you only get reward from 45$ pledge.

What an interesting book! I'd totally consider buying a copy if it actually gets published.

I'm in, sounds like a fun book and a welcome addition to my library.

Ditto. Just looking at that first sample page, I remember desperately wanting my very own Dark Crystal shard. :cool:

That's the whole crystal. Check out the funk reaction dark crystal. You build it just like the one in the picture and Jen comes with a tiny shard that fits in.

Want to know what would be better than a Kickstarter for a book with a bunch of pictures and info I can probably already get on the net? How about a Kickstarter for the actual figures? :rolleyes:

Yes, a kickstarter for producing these toys would be amazing!

You'll break the bank trying to make that. Each character (large and small) comes with a piece of the Crystal and you can't complete it without all the characters.

I'd like some more info on the cancelled line of Mega Man toys based on the cartoon in the 90s. There were also cancelled figures based on Mega Man NT Warrior.

"Break the bank"? There are five funko reaction figures needed to complete the dark crystal. They are $8 each. If $40 will "break the bank", you probably shouldn't be buying toys at all.

Well... I live in the UK so that price would go up a little. But if you can point me to where the figures are available for $8 each I'd appreciate it (not being ironic or sarcastic or anything - genuine request)

I live in the US. I got all mine for $7.95 from Barnes & Noble's website back in December. They still have Jen, Ursol, and Kira in stock. I have no idea where to get them in the UK.

This book is awesome. Wanting a copy big time.

My all time favorite unreleased figure hands down is Gizmoduck from the Darkwing Duck line. Hopefully we'll get a figure of him since Herocross: Hybrid Metal Figuration are making a Scrooge McDuck and Huey, Dewey, and Louie Duck.

Dang. That would have been a steal. Because they ran out of two of them the shipping isn't offset enough. Cheapest I can find them in the UK is £9 for the smaller ones and £14 for the larger ones plus shipping. £60 ($75?). Not bank-breaking, but not too cheap. I need to think about this...

My all time favorite unreleased toys are the second wave of Ren & Stimpy figures that Palisades was working on before the end. I really wish SOMEONE would come along with the same talent and do these figures justice.

I hope these figures are represented in the book, that would be awesome.
