My fear about this line is that every fig comes with a hardback book. I fear each fig is gonna run about $15 or something. I'd really like for these li'l bastids to succeed like wildfire, but that book and it's attendant costs are gonna hamper repeat buyers. Perhaps in succeeding waves they can offer book-less 3packs of previous wave figs?
Hello;
I'm currently a fan of your Forces of Valor 1/18th figures. I collect pretty much any and every toyline in 18th scale as it offers the best compromise of sculpting details, articulation, and playset feasibility.
I'm very anxious to get some of your Ages of Action products as I'm a very large history buff, and hope you do warriors from all across history and the world. I'd love to see some Mayan/Aztec/Inca sort of guys; as well as some Zulu, and Spartans, and Native American Indians and Eskimos, and Hindu and medieval Muslim warriors. It's all good so far as I can see.
My one fear is that those of us wishing to build armies of these warriors will be put off by the inclusion of the book with every figure. This book, while no doubt a great inclusion to help educate the kids, and yo're to be applauded for including it; obviously adds some cost to the overall price of each figure.
So, as a compromise; perhaps you could offer three-packs of warriors a wave or two later than they come out singly? I'd love to have ten each of everything I've seen so far. WIth some weapons and helmet interchangeability, it'd be easy to assemble armies of non-identical warriors.
Please give this idea some thought, after seeing how well the first offerings go, of course. I hope this line succeeds for you twice as well as the Forces of Valor line is doing. On a related note, can we assume these Ages of Action figures will be sold exclusively through Target here in the USA?
Lastly, Page 6 of your Ages of Action website (
