Talk:McFarlane Toys

this article needs PICTURES. I can make some if it is needed and does not break 900000 copyright violations? --Krakko 20:10, 2 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Easily broken and depriciated

Spawn toys may have been worth alot in the late 90s but now your lucky if you get a dollar for these figures.

No criticism?

No mention at all of how the figures have steadily declined in poseability? No mention of the controversy of The Freak from the early line.. something about teaching kids that homeless people are all chainsaw wielding maniacs?

Twisted Land of Oz

The versions of characters from The Wonderful Wizard of Oz created by McFarlane for the "Twisted Land of Oz" series are described in the articles for those characters (see Dorothy Gale, Scarecrow (Oz), etc.). I'm not sure that in the larger cultural context these "twisted" versions of the characters are noteworthy. They're worth mention in this article, in the context of McFarlane Toys, but I really don't think that Todd McFarlane's bondage Dorothy has had enough cultural impact on the image of the character to be worth mentioning in Dorothy Gale — it's certainly far less significant than the revisionist versions of Dorothy in Wicked and even Lost Girls. Would anyone object if I removed the McFarlane bits from the Oz characters' pages? I'm mentioning this here because I figured that whoever put the mentions in the Oz characters' articles would be likely to see the discussion. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 23:30, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of any objection I'm going to remove them from the Oz characters' pages. The description here will stay, of course. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 18:57, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
