I'm surprised Disney let a Jessica Rabbit figure come out. Maybe because it's a Reaction and you can't really get her curves there.

Damn if they actually make all the weasels I might actually end up buying some of these ReActions, I always loved those idiots.

Somewhat disappointed. I was expecting and hoping for an Ultimates line instead. And usually when they plan to do both Ultimates and Reactions, the Ultimates stuff always gets revealed and released first. So given that a Reactions line is the first reveal, it is now in doubts about if we'll get an Ultimates line too. I'm still going to get the Reaction figures though, but I really want a 7" scale Roger and Jessica!
I'm surprised this wave doesn't include Eddie Valiant. Likeness rights aren't an issue when it comes to Reaction lines since the headsculpts can be so simple and cartoonish, so they could have easily gotten away with doing Eddie. He's a huge ommission in this line if they don't ever make him. Judge Doom is in a realistic "human form" here too, so there's no excuse for them not making an Eddie figure. Hopefully we get a 2nd wave later with him and Baby Herman and the rest of the weasels and the transformed Judge Doom. It's also a shame Super 7 doesn't do vehicles in their Reaction lines because I'd love to have a Bennie the Cab with these figures too. They really need to get over that stubborn issue, because they produce some figures that really NEED a vehicle to go with them (the Back to the Future Delorean, and more recently the Knight Rider car for Michael Knight!).

Very disappointed these are reaction figures. I was hoping for an Ultimates line. No shade to folks who like the reAction line, but I stopped caring about 4 point articulated figures when I was 5.

I'm sure the Roger Rabbit reaction line would have to sell REALLY REALLY well for them to even consider doing a Bennie the Cab. And sadly, with their stupid $18+ price point on figures, I don't expect it will do much better than most of their Reaction lines and may not even get a 2nd wave with their track record of many "one and done" waves for Reaction lines. Their Reaction TMNT line must be doing very well if they are up to 5 waves on that one, and even then Super 7 apparently has no plans for a 3.75" scale Turtle wagon. If Super 7 was a much bigger company, they'd probably be willing to take bigger financial chances on 3.75" scale playsets and vehicles. I want a KITT for Michael Knight, a Delorean time machine, a Nostromo playset for Alien, a TMNT battle wagon, and other stuff to compliment the figures and add more display/play value. But none of that is ever going to happen.

They did do both of those, so that's something at least. I don't think vehicles with rolling wheels and opening doors are on the way for ReActions but who knows. |

????
I told myself I was done with ReAction. But the Weasels are the second best thing about Who Framed Roger Rabbit. And I did have the head guy when I was a kid. Yup! Justification enough! ???? I really hope there's a second series to round out the gang. |

Everything about these is cool, except for that awful Judge Doom card art.

So is Super7 just like buying licenses based on a dartboard throw in the hopes that it makes them money?

Should not be a problem seeing Enesco has been releasing multiple Disney Showcase Jessica Rabbit Figurines/Statues over the years.

However, it just seems like Super7 is getting everything and anything they can whether it makes sense of not. I love Bob's Burgers, but I was not asking for merchandise from the show beyond full season Blu-Ray sets.
