Yeah that kinda bugged me too. I mean, all they had to do was do to the 6 or 7 inch figures what they did with the 5 inch figures. I at LEAST bought Lee and Clementine, lol.

Yup! And while I still own my older figures McFarlane did, they need to keep up the quality of sculpt and articulation they started with the Star Trek figures.

Well, they SORT of have Halloween. They don't have the original classic Halloween, just the new 2018 film apparently, an d they have the license to Evil Dead 2, but not Army of Darkness and maybe not the original Evil Dead. There are also other licenses out there fans want made. I'd like to see them explore licenses we haven't seen visited since the older SOTA Toys days.
