I havent read Judge Dredd, but the movie is just an gun action cop film drug bust with gore and violence galore. Doesnt over complicate things, keeps it simple, and I enjoyed it.<br /><br />As for a 2000ad collection, I have said it once, I'll say it again, it wont work. They tried putting 2000ad characters in the equivalent of Marvel Legends and the series only lasted 2 outings and just warmed pegs. There was a game with one 2000ad character that was supposedly quite good, but it didnt sell.<br /><br />Cant argue the fact the comics keep selling, but maybe the people buying them are not interested in anything other than the comics?LAWayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10799064595287606916noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-48206306679232430292012-09-19T23:33:17.840+01:002012-09-19T23:33:17.840+01:00Steady on Robert, an insult like that is a touch h...Steady on Robert, an insult like that is a touch harsh, what has tupperware ever done to you to earn such a comparison<br /><br />PApirate adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01752751687568282858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-82692038117159040622012-09-19T17:46:34.630+01:002012-09-19T17:46:34.630+01:00It was a lot of time, Toon, so don't blame you...It was a lot of time, Toon, so don't blame you. <br /><br />2000AD? Agree with everything you said. Around '80-'82 it was far and away the best comic ever. I'm mentioned a 2000AD collection - not just Dredd - a few times over the years. But they have a lousy history of merchandising and only recently seem to have realised they have a great back catalogue to get out in TPs.Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08802582369684451770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8475118225184706855.post-29603923553763876602012-09-19T17:20:26.304+01:002012-09-19T17:20:26.304+01:00Robert - I never went back to them is the short bu...Robert - I never went back to them is the short but true answer. I guess I'm more suited to buying than creating :) Maybe one day I'll get the urge to try again.<br /><br />2000ad seems a no brainer to a few of us on here but I'm sure Dan said the marketing dept were no go. It seems odd that a title thats been around for so long wouldnt have folks queuing up for figurines. Having said that you can STILL buy 2000ad action figures from the official shop years after release so not sure thats a good sign.<br /><br />Personally I would chuck out half of my CMFC and make space for the galaxys finest. Sacrilege ? Honesty.<br /><br />Saturday afternoons were a magical time as a kid, wrestling on World of Sport (Big Daddy etc) and the latest prog glued to my hands. 2000AD is without doubt my favourite comic of all time. Please let EM know if you agree....and shut ya gob if you dont !!

How can you type those words? The level of input fans have had in the CMFC has been unprecedented.<br /><br />They let the forum pick the costume/ incarnation for Balder and others.<br /><br />They ran competitions for fans to win the chance to pick characters.<br /><br />They listened to us when we said that Skurge should be without a gun and with numerous other tweaks.<br /><br />They often included characters who featured prominently in forum polls.<br /><br />I can't begin to list all the characters and changes we agitated for and got.<br /><br />If anything we had TOO much input.

I am grateful to EM/Dan for the awesome Hela figurine, and all the work that went into it to create faithful details like the amazingly elaborate headpiece which is the crowning glory of the design. I am grateful, let's make this clear.<br /><br />But it's precisely for this reson - the fact that the figurine is an exquisite reproduction of Marvel design - that I want to try to get the fully white eyes. Considering how all the rest is so faithful to the original design.
