I left the convention early so I did not get to hear the panel.  Of course, I downloaded the WOJM podcast and was able to hear it yesterday.

The Mantis release (Mantis, right ?) sounds like a great idea. 

Is that going to happen?  Any plans to do a Cobra North AND Joe version, like was contemplated on the podcast ?

That would be awsome.

Everything is in place for a Cobra Manta to be done.
But, I'm a little pre-occupied right now.

I would think / hope we'll have some news in the new year at the latest.

Manta as in the MANTA wind-surf board?

That's great....sounds like it will be awesome.   Where did you find 50 or 100 of them?  That is not a recent product. 

I remember sending away for the Manta in 1984 and waiting the obligatory 8 - 10 weeks (remember those pre-Amazon days?).  When it finally came, I thought it was the greatest thing ever. 

Mail - in exclusives from back in the day where the greatest.  For some reason, I can pretty much remember them all, going back to Bossk from Star Wars in 1980 in 1980. 

Anyway, I digress.  I think the Manta will be a great addition and like it as a sort of hat tip to the "mail away offers" from yesteryear.

These would be reproductions. They talked about that at the Q and A at the CJC this year. The Mantis is my one of my favorite vehicles so I am looking forward to seeing this project reach completion. It has a longer history then you suspect.

Fixed that for you 

But, you may also be a Mantis lover, who knows?

Hey, any plans in the works to do an Internet figure too, as mentioned as a potential project at the Con??  That would be a win. 

I still think someone in the mythos needs a proper animal companion....maybe a polar bear   That has never been done, I don't think.

get hold of Urzor's bear from Brazil and remould it in white?

[martin-montreal]

here is one:

When I was typing that, I thought to myself that there were probably some crazy Brazilian Polar Bear out there......turns out I was right

[Sundance]

well, it's not a polar bear, it's another bear. the actual toy is brown. getting one of them Playmobil ones and copying it or buying multiples and painting them might be cheaper.
