View Full Version : Firefly and Serenity!!!!!!

OMG! I just noticed this forum today! How long has it been up?
Anyway a Firefly/Serenity line would be absolutely awesome! And Browncoats are super fanatical and would jump all over this line!! I'm a huge Whedon fan and love Buffy and Angel and thought no show would ever top them and then Joss created Firefly and I was hooked from the beginning!!
I know many Buffy/Angel fans that would love this line and I know many who loved Firefly/Serenity but didn't get into Buffy and Angel!
I hope if Sideshow ever does this line that they get are able to do products from both Firefly and Serenity because I'd want characters and costumes from both!

HURRAAAAAHHHH!
I second that motion, even make them very collectible and limited. But these are just dying to be given SS treatment.
Give me a Mal PF and I'll be over the moon forever. Imagine it though, seriously. I can see it being like PF John Wayne. Even that pose too. I'll keep dreaming of it, as I know it would make one of the best PF's possible.
Anything for Firefly/Serenity by SS would be perfect and I'd be honoured.

I'd love a River figure too!!
That would be great, and maybe a full Serenity model.
Browncoat
09-03-2006, 04:28 AM
YES PLEASE!
I'd kill for some serenity and firefly 12" figures!
Either license would be great, but both would be ideal :)

Count me in!! I would ABSOLUTELY buy SSC products based on Firefly or Serenity. I'm sure this license would be a great seller.
I need a Mal Reynolds and a post-reaver-fight River Tam in Serenity. :monkey3 (just for starters, you know)

I would be in for PF's for sure and likely 1/6 as well.
scarab
09-03-2006, 05:27 AM
I'm with you for 1/6 figure of the Serenity crew, that would be great, launch the line with Mal, Zoe and River!
I'm not into PF yet, but with River this could change...
"I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me"

Firefly Flanatic
09-03-2006, 07:55 PM
I think both sizes would do great! I haven't bought any PF figures yet but I know I wouldn't be able to resist a River, especially if she's in that battle pose from the end of Serenity and all covered with Reaver blood!
Protozaius
09-03-2006, 09:25 PM
I would buy each and every 12" Firefly/Serenity offering that Sideshow would produce... no exception. I can't say the same for either the 12" Star Wars or LOTR lines. In fact, I would even forgo buying some of the Star Wars figures in favor of them.
Basically, if you, Sideshow, would choose to produce this line, you would own what is left of my wallet. :monkey3 :monkey3 :monkey3
waverly94
09-03-2006, 11:03 PM
Yes! Mal, Zoe, Jayne and the gang 12 inch figures would be so shiny!
I would prefer to Firefly versions but would gladly snatch up either one.

12 inch line seems to be the best option. Do them well (heck...even just decently) and the Browncoats WILL show up.

PS - I'm in...possibly 1010% if yougues did PFs...but I'm just getting in to the PF thing so it's still pretty darn shiny for me...

For your consideration:
A 1:6 (12") line of figures base on the Firefly/Serenity shows. I think that the fan base is large enough to warrent and support a line of figures based on this property. Please consider this request.

Hey, Sideshow, you can even do like Alfrex did back in the day with Seven Samurai and make a box set of the principal characters. I'd gladly pay (or flexpay) to get Zoe, Mal, Jayne, Wash, Kaylee, Book, Inara, Simon, and River at once.
I think that might be the only other obstacle in making the license feasable: people would want to know that all the characters were getting made. :)

OMG!!! What an AMAZING idea!!!! I'd buy that! Even knowing what it would cost, I'd buy that!!!!

A boxed set of all nine major characters would be on my Christmas list for sure. I don't care if if would be spendy. I'd sell the family van if need be. Please, please consider the "Firefly" and "Serenity" line. I just know that the market is there. It has to be stronger than "The Planet of the Apes" customer base was.

GREAT NEWS FOR ALL!!!!!!!
Andy Bergholtz is going to sculp a Capt. Mal head. Andy has done several of the fine heads used on Star Wars figures and others (Buffy) If you want to check out some of his work, go to www.absculpture.con and click on Gallery. Also go to Sideshow commerce and click on sell/trade TV and Movie and check out his amazing Daniel Craig as bond. He's taking orders on these at $25.00 for the head sculp in either clean shaven or with a beard stubble. This guy is fantastic.

Posting on this thread is like using a cell phone in the woods. No one can tell if anyone is getting the message. I know alot of people dropped by the Sideshow booth at SDCC and requested a line of Serenity/Firefly figures, but I'll never know if anyone is paying attention. All you can do is hope. I for one am still hoping that someone will take notice.

If quality figures are made they'll do well. Its the fact that all the Firefly/Serenity related collectibles thus far have been pretty crap. Therefore they dont sell and SS gets the impression its not a sellable line.

While I would pass on a 12" range, a Firefly PF range would be great.
Not sure sure about a Mal PF, but if done right, then a PF of River, in a short, silk sexy dress, action pose with swords in hand all ready to slice and dice some reavers, in fact pretty much the cover image of her from the Serenity DVD :monkey5
Yup, give me that PF and I'd buy it in an instance.

I have a perfect analogy to the Fox vs. the world of Firefly/Serenity and all it's fans:
It's a giant bukakee fest, with the Fox execs standing in a big circle with Firefly/Serenity and fans in the middle!
Sorry for the imagery, but that's just how I feel. I would purchase each and every figure in the line, even at like $150 a pop. Even a giant 1/6 Serenity that was like $1k plus!

Only want the 1/4 PF's myself, but I have no doubt that plenty of others would get all the 1/6 stuff and many would get most if not all of the 1/4.
So at the end of the day, I'd say that SS could do both (just like the Buffy/Angel line) and have it all sell out.

So, I emailed SS about Firefly and was told that my request will be passed onto the Product Development Team. I asked mostly for PF's, but said that plenty would want the 12" figures as well.
BuffyGirl

I think I will do the same. But I definitely want 12" cause I don't have any room or enough money for all the 1/4.

I don't see SS ever doing this license. Even if they did, based on previous lines they have done, we would never get all the characters. Effort might be better placed petitioning other companies to do these figures. Amok Time may be a good candidate as they are doing more eclectic figures in smaller production runs than SS is probably willing to mess with at this point. Their continuation of the original Battlestar Galactica line looks promising. While Firefly has not been around nearly as long as BSG or Lost in Space, seems like they would fit better over there.

Sideshow, it is definitely time to start thinking about doing this line. The dvds for the series continue to be a top seller and the comics sell out faster than they can be printed. The fans of this show love everything about it and would love to have these figures - whether you do 12" or PF!! I collected every 12" Buffy/Angel figure you made (even though you short changed us with the Angel line) and I would buy these if you ever give us this line. I've never bought a PF figure but I'd buy any and all Firefly/Serenity figure(s) if you offered them.

Wow, what a great cast picture! I like those casual "out of outfit" pictures of casts in regular clothes. It just looks good. But on the other hand, I love seeing them "in character" too!
My good friend raved so much about Firefly I had to see the entire series...so I bought it! I loved it, and I then got the special collector's edition DVD set for Serenity and loved it too! The idiots at FOX cancelled this great show way too early! Joss Whedon is a genius! What a great creator and writer and director he is!
I'd love to see either Sideshow or Hot Toys make the entire Serenity/Firefly cast as 12" or 1:6 scale figures! I would buy them all! :D

Stargate isn't really so bad but it's on Sci-Fi and the rest of their programming is much lower in quality so that's why it does well.

yruh8n
04-10-2008, 07:54 AM
I was discussing this with a friend the other day. If anyone ever picks up this line, it's going to be real discouraging if all 9 characters don't get made. With SS past record of dropping lines before fans get what they want (see the MANY threads on missing POTA and Buffy/Angel figures), I would expect them to do Mal, Jayne, River and maybe Zoe and then quit. The idea we came up with is to do 3 two packs and 1 three pack. The breakdown would be:
Mal and Inara
Jayne and Shepard Book
Zoe and Wash
River, Simon and Kaley
Any fans that cared enough about the show would be willing to pony up the extra bucks to get the most popular characters, with an additional character as a bonus. Plus I think more people who want all the characters would be more enthusiastic about the prospects of getting all the cast. If these get released one at a time by anyone I will be very sceptical that the whole cast will be made

Nope, not out yet. They want to have it at $500 for an LE version and then $550 for a Signature Edition (signed by Nathan Fillion). They were planning on having the preorder last September, but things got delayed and they had also switched to a new production factory so things got delayed even more. They're still working on the prototype and we'll be sure to know as soon as they have any more info. It'll be very nice though, I've seen the 3D model they're working off of and it's very detailed.
Still need figures for this line though. It seems Trevor wants to do some sculpts, but without it being part of his job I don't think that'll be completed very soon.

DARK HORSE and DIAMOND SELECT TOYS both currently hold the license on FIREFLY/SERENITY.
With new comics still coming from DARK HORSE and DIAMOND SELECT TOYS' new 1/6 and 1/4 lines, it looks grey that SIDESHOW TOYS will get the license anytime soon.
OMG! I just noticed this forum today! How long has it been up?
Anyway a Firefly/Serenity line would be absolutely awesome! And Browncoats are super fanatical and would jump all over this line!! I'm a huge Whedon fan and love Buffy and Angel and thought no show would ever top them and then Joss created Firefly and I was hooked from the beginning!!
I know many Buffy/Angel fans that would love this line and I know many who loved Firefly/Serenity but didn't get into Buffy and Angel!
I hope if Sideshow ever does this line that they get are able to do products from both Firefly and Serenity because I'd want characters and costumes from both!

Pitty they produce nothing but junk (DIAMOND SELECT TOYS' that is), I can't imagine any of it sells, you'd think they would free it up for someone else to do a proper job.
