Yeah, one of the reasons that I rarely collect NECA action figures.

Same here. The other of course being I can't find the Neca figures TOO collect . . . at least not the ones I want.

. . . but I'm not bitter.

It might also payoff better in the long run to invest in things like quality control and making sure the figures they put out that people really do want are more accurate to the source material. But what do I know? I don't have a ponytail.

I just got this wild and crazy idea. Instead of Neca spending millions making figures NOBODY WANTS, what if they actually put some REAL effort into distributing the few figures they make that collectors DO want!

Isn't that zany?

Would love to know how many of these sell at release. My guess is 50.

There is a huge following of Richard Simmons so don't under estimate that only toy collectors will be buying it...

If I see it at Target I will get it... I'm subscribed to his YouTube channel and there quite a few good video advices that I like...

Which retailers JayC? Walmart? Target? Or both?

This is just so random and awkward. I may buy it for the sheer quirkiness about it.I say they should go after an entire Hollywood Squares theme. We could get a Joan Rivers, Bruce Vallance, Jim J. Bullock, Charo, Nell Carter, Alf. The possibilities are endless.I think a much wanted Vincent Price could be a big seller.

Neca should follow this up witha Mego style Slim Goodbody.
