I'm not familiar with this company or their products, but this sounds cool except for the teeny weeny aspect. I'm done with teeny weeny stuff. It looks too much like clutter. Some normal maquettes would be very cool, or really high quality action figures.

Ooh, the same people that did the Toon Buffy series and some Electra Woman and Dyna Girl stuff!

I'm totally jazzed about seeing something new with Darkwing!!! :D

Whoa, I'm way into collecting but I have never seen this stuff before! It looks awesome! Looking at the website now, and I saw two Buffy ones on Ebay! Gotta get those! (don't want anything tiny though, I wonder how big they are...)

Just from what I've seen so far, that Dyna Girl looks GORGEOUS, and I want that Herman Munster! ANd they have the Greatest American Hero! Holy Cow! I'm excited! How big are these and how long have they been around? I wonder if any will be at Wizard World Texas this year... I want Elvira too, and one of the Woody Woodpeckers, Holly Starlite, Bullwinkle, Dick Tracy, Lassie, Bewitched, Popeye, Mr. Magoo, Jeannie, Casper, Richie Rich, Mighty Mouse, Mandy, Betty Boop, all the Munsters, and, of course, everything Disney! Some of the other stuff is cool too! I definitely want that book of drawings and sketches!

If they're at least 6 inches or more, I'll be eager to buy! Though, don't have much room for them at the moment, but I'd make room for a few! I'm psyched at some of those Disney pictures posted (well, all really), like Roger Rabbit!

You can order Darkwing already, apparently! He looks awesome!

Jeez, I need to check this store out! They have some awesome stuff! Checkout the Western Minnie on the right! Only thing I'm not too keen on is when they're just busts. I like to have the full figure.

edit: I'm actually gonna type "OMG" here, because I just saw these Tink figures! I MUST have these!

Thanks, they're gorgeous! I want the Buffy ones badly! Will have to save up though. If I would find them at Wizard World Texas though, I'd probably have the money then.

You ever done any sculpting Slave2Moonlight?

Maybe if you designed some cool version of Disney stuff they may let you license it?

I dunno, just a suggestion, because I enjoy your art.

You have the skills and with my marketing know how, we could make a mint.

Corner of first and main here I come... XD

Thanks. Ha, well, I wouldn't mind working for a company doing that like the artists who are doing it for Electric Tiki, though I'm more of a sketch guy and have only dabbled in sculpting. I recently bought some super sculpy in the hopes of teaching myself more (by sculpting my comic strip characters), but I need to buy more of it and some sculpting tools, ha.

I saw that, too! I hope that means they have plans of releasing one!

I also see Mary Poppins, which I'd totally buy. And Ariel is pretty much a given. So, neato! Thank's for the link!

Here's an update on the Electric Tiki Disney Projects: Phase One.

You can see development artwork for two Jessica Rabbit figurines, Goliath from Gargoyles (awesome), Mary Blair's Alice and White Rabbit, and the Rocketeer. It mentions Chip, Dale, Gadget, Roger Rabbit, Super Goof, Herbie, Tron, Mary Poppins (can't wait to see that one!), and Walt Disney as coming out soon as well.

I think the Darkwing Duck figurine is already available for pre-order.

Dude...the Mary Blair Alice figures are insanely cool. If that retails at $99 or less, I may consider picking that set up despite the fact that my room's cluttered enough as it is. Of course, if they ever get around to doing Blair's red-headed Hatter, I'll nab that one instead.

That early promo image at Electric Tiki's website also shows a Mary Blair piece from Cinderella. That, too, should be really neat to see fully dimensional.

I'm just a tad confused about something, are these available only through the website or will they be released to stores? I don't think that's been mentioned yet and I found the site in the first link to not lead anywhere =/

I'd love the option of getting these through stores, of course I'd probably have to save up for a while. I'd love to get the White Rabbit first, followed by just about any other one released.
