Archive : | At this point all the figures have been released except Bixby Snyder.
I e-mailed Super7 a few days ago, and here is their reply:
super7 : | Hello,
Unfortunately this figure did not make it to final production.

They probably realized nobody would pay more than $1 for that figure.

I took the chance to also ask them about a second wave of Robo figures.
super7 : | Nothing currently planned but I do know there's internal interest for another wave!

I´d buy that for a dollar.

I wouldn´t hold my breath for it. I´ve seen the same thing with previous lines of other (and bigger) franchises.
I´ve been watching some RoboMerch lately, as I´d love to get a new item, but sadly there isn´t too much to look at. These ReAction figs are cute, but cartoonish, and it usually cost more than they deserve (specially here, where they could ask for a bunch more for them). There are the Hiya ones, but distribution is crappy here (it seems they´ll only distribute the RebootCop ones and the battle damaged ED-209. I´d prefer the regular edition!) and again, if you have to add the shipping cost from the US you´ll pay twice their price, which makes everything less fun. The Good Smile Company RoboCop doesn´t look too good for it´s price (bad painting on the mouth, etc) and it seems the Mafex ones are starting to dissapear (and they were around 100 bucks here). I think I´ll try to get a figure from The Series, as some of them aren´t too pricey and would be fun to have toys I´ve seen in my childhood.
