According to Bret Dilabbio at Irwin Toy, the 1 and 2 inch figure lines may not have much more time left—Irwin is a bit discontented with the fan response to the lines, and thus may discontinue them soon. Furthermore, they have no plans to tool figures of their own on that scale, so if they did decide to keep them coming, they would be rereleases of the AB and Bandai sets, but he said that if that were the case, they would have no real way to tell ahead of time which assortments would be released.

And I was hoping for the Christmas set, bummer.

On another note, here’s a small issue cleared up. Despite what FUNI published in its last newsletter, series 16 will contain Cell, not Krillin. Sorry folks. However, I do have some good news…

Images of Series 15, 16 and the new blasting figures should arrive this weekend!

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
