Right in Japan, they have some very cool Hanna-Barbera figures. As you can see here, http://www.toymania.com/news/messages/5697.shtml. Supposely these are called, trading figures. I think that the quality of these figures looks very good what they are, but could imagine a whole action figure line of Hanna-Barbera similar to the Muppets and Pink Panther line?
Well Palisades Toys, the makers of both lines have. Ken Lilly, product manager at Palisades Toys stated this at the Palisades toys boards,
"We looked into it and could get it, but it would not include Flintstones and Jetsons, which I think is critical to have in order to achieve any longevity or power in the market with that product line in a six-inch traditional action figure scenario."

Unfourtanley for right, Ken will look further into getting the license unless the Flintstones and Jetsons are included. The thing that I don't get is that no one at the moment has the Flintstones or Jetsons action figure license. Equality Marketing has Scooby Doo, but that about it for classic Hanna-Barbera characters.
Thoughts? Feed Back?
