Sorry but "Goonies" does not seem very Shai-like. :confused:

No it doesn't. :lol

A framed map and coin might be cool, though.

Who says you cant be a fan of Friday the 13th movies, ...and those movies too ??? !!!

No one Shai! No one has the right to tell you what you can and can't be a fan of... although I'm sure Darklord will have a field day editing all of our responses :lol

Excited about this announcement, but a little sad since I really need a 1/6 Sloth... not a giant hunk of plastic. Although I'll buy him in any form, no matter what!

WHAT ?!?!?!?!

I grew up with those old 80's kiddie adventure movies ( Goonies, labyrinth, Willow)....Who says you cant be a fan of Friday the 13th movies, ...and those movies too ??? !!!
I thought you were done with stuff like this. Isn't that why you sold off most of your 12" figures?

Okay, enough about ...
;) :lol

I don't know why you quoted me about that, I was talking about Chunk's dance, as a fellow chunky monkey, I've done the truffle shuffle before, it's good for a laugh at college.

Very odd. Cool in a way, though. I loved this movie as a kid. I may actually pick these up.

Wonder if these are timed at all to capitalize on the direct to dvd sequal I've read about

Yeah, eff the 12 inch hunk-o-plastic that will be Sloth! Mezco needs to get with the times and needs to start producing some 1/6 stuff!

I can't believe it! I was asking for a Goonies line a couple of days ago and look how quick I got my wish fulfilled. I love the idea of an extensive 7 inch line. Chunk! Data! in plastic form, I was hoping only for Sloth if something from the movie was to be made, but having the whole gang will be amazing! That made my day. I'm so happy that movies like Labyrinth, Goonies, or Legend are getting so many good collectibles these days! It's a happy era for 80s children who became obssesive collectors ^^

Cool! I'll look forward to these. I will await production pictures to make final judgement of course.

Are these being shown at Toy Fair, or are they just announcing the license?

The only thing more disappointing than waiting 20 years for figures from a certain property, is finally having someone make the figures, and they turn out to be less like you wanted or expected. Case in point "The Warriors" by Mezco. I'm trying to limit myself to 1/6th figures, but would have bought any size Warriors, had they been to my liking. The stylized sculpting on those figures really turned me off to the whole line. I'm afraid they may go with the same "style" on the Goonies. I'm sure many will be thrilled. At least it shows that the license is available so maybe another company will go for 1/6th scale? It would be nice if someone started doing some 1/6th child bodies, as there aren't many alternatives for customs. Really could use a 1/6th Data to customize into Short Round.

Just saw pics on the Mezco boards. They look alright, but need some work. The Sloth is by far and away the best of the line. The kids have their good and bad bits. With a bit of tweaking these could be worth purchasing.

Is that the one with Martha Plimpton?
As a kid I had the hots for her.
And now I can own her! Wait, that sounds wrong.

At least she's legal now. So you're good. I think....:lol

just back from the new york comic con
I think the figures look great!

I have a few more, but I guess the images are already out there

Chunk comes with the statue featuring Mikey's moms favorite piece broken off.
