I believe you mean the classic video game line, since technically they do make video game figures based on newer licenses which are new sculpts for release. I remember them saying once that they wanted to do other Nintendo original licenses, but there were complications in getting rights or something along those lines. I know they'd both be repaints (one we kind of will be getting soon) but a Contra two pack is within their possibilities, they'd just need permission to release it.

They have made Conan the Barbarian figures, not as much articulation as their newer stuff but still very strong sculpting likeness. Also, who wants toys for The Breakfast Club? That's gotta be a very miniscule crowd.

It' Always Sunny isn't a sitcom or campy, it's harder to pin it under most regular comedic genres. It goes for weirder sometimes darker material, which can be viewed as messed up. It definitely has a lot of irreverent material which may offend/upset viewers, a lot edgier than most any sitcom. It is rated TV-MA so there is that warning. I would say though that it's more like South Park than The Simpsons, if that makes any sense. I like it a lot though.
