Sons of Anarchy is currently at Mezco.

Other than Game of Thrones, the Legacy series has been mostly ultra niche stuff that's just sitting on shelves at specialty stores. Firefly may be a bit of a seller, but I have a feeling they'll be over produced and wind up sitting eventually.

For Legacy to be as successful as it can be, they need to grab some type of wider audience (or bigger cult) license.
Funko is taking license risks too early. I'm glad they did the Magic set, I picked up three and left the other three because they were pretty bad, but most other players I know don't also collect figures. Fantastic Mr. Fox, Book of Life, Firefly, Rocketeer, and (I hate to say it) Fallout at this point only hit small audiences. Game of thrones is the only license they have that has a guaranteed big crowd, and wave 1 performed so poorly many just left before 2 even hit. I really want the Fallout line to do well but it's been almost five years since the last game released. Those Evolve figures might do alright since it's a big, new video game, I'm not a marketer I don't know.
