Normally I'd complain about having to buy the full set for one figure. But I'll happily buy the full set just for an SY Red Tornado.

Is it bad that I want that Hitler figure too...

I'm not sure why that's bad. He was a historical figure, that is fact. Actually if someone made a set of WWII leader figs (FDR, Churchill, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Hirohito), I think it would find a market.

I don't think that's Cyzarro... even on the small CGI image the torso print looks symmetrical which would mean it's not damaged... and not Cyzarro.

I think these are actually just new designs of the JL. I know people want new characters but even if this just had a nicely done New 52 Supes torso I'd buy the whole set. I just hope they've done a nice job of the rest of the figures too.

Over at Flickr someone made an excellent MOC of a Hitler based figure which was Remus Lupin's dark tan suit, Indy's dark tan pants with holster and Indy's satchel along with J Jonah's head print and a Brickforge dark tan cap. I think the cap on this one should be a very good alternative for that.

I see the fake GI Joe figures are taking designs from various places including a Citizen Brick soldier head with the loosened chin straps... while I wouldn't normally hold out much hope on a set like this the sample figure of Storm Shadow from the OLS design we've seen is excellent so you never know. It's certainly better than the CGI image.

I hope the rest of the waves don't get cancelled, but can kind of understand this one being so.

Red arrow has been done by Decool, and DLP

Sam wilson done by DLP

White deadpool done by Pogo and Xinh

Gambit by Pogo

Antman figs by loads of places

Only fig unique to that wave would have been the Deathstroke.

I don't think duplication of figures is anything that has stopped a set coming out before. I don't event think they have the problem of looking at their product and thinking 'This is crap... let's not bother'... They've put out much worse in the past.

There will probably be another very simple reason behind their cancellation... and it's not down to worrying about market saturation.

my thoughts exactly, i've messaged a seller on AE who had them a few weeks ago to see what he says

True, time will tell :) I just hope that some of the other figures surface i.e. Ms Marvel, Sentry, Atom etc I really wanted them.

i've just had a reply from Rock Yong @ Minifigures Wholesale who confirmed the set has been cancelled and will not be sold, awaiting reply on reasons why and whether we can expect any of the others

Posted

i've just read that the Dargo 861 set has been cancelled :S

Too bad, i wanted that Gambit. I know Pogo has a Gambit too, but all pics show really crappy figs. I do hope they'll still produce the others (especially Namor, Moonknight, Miss Marvel, Sentry, Spider-woman, Mystique and even Sandman (I didn't bought that weak set))

Hey the Gambit by Pogo is really good, don't be put off by the other figs. The finish is matt, but it stands up well with my Sheng Yuan X-men. It's wierd as gambit and Black mask are good by Pogo, but then some of the other Pogo figures look like they have been drawn on with a felt tip pen lol

Yup, gambit figure from pogo is nice.

I think dargo 861 will be released after christmas, they want to sell their star wars episode 7 stuff before the end of the year (only brand selling them at the moment)

again, from further messages to/from Rock Yong, it seems this set has been cancelled not postponed which is a shame
