As for the figures. I really don't see it making it past series 1. If it does get a series 2 it will probably consist of battle damaged or helmeted versions of Valerian and Laureline and maybe one other new figure (which I would still definitely buy) and then it will end prematurely.

The figures look great, but I feel the same way about this line as I did with the Apes line or if they could actually make Mad Max figures. Cool enough for me to get everything they release, but not cool enough to appeal to the masses in figure form.

I'd personally be up for Mad Max, but that's a line that will never happen. George Miller is against licensing the films for any toy releases.

Only reason I never bought into the Apes line was the lack of a 7" scale Taylor figure. I have the Mego Taylor they released, but without the 7" scale one, the line would never feel right to me.
