Splitting this one off too. Who is picking these up and how deep do you want this line to go? I'd love to get Jon as far as humans go but depending on how big Garfield ends up being Jon may be a bridge too far. I'm definitely in for pirate costumed versions of Garfield and Odie from the Halloween special and if US Acres in included in this license I'd take all of those guys too.
Pre-order now wherever fine toys are sold!
They should at least get to Binky on the obscurity level. And Garfield should come with a spider, smashed and otherwise, at some point. The figures look cool, but I'm not enough of a huge fan to collect another animated line. But they do look decent and true to form enough for the true fans.
I haven't even thought about Binky. Size would still be a concern but I wouldn't mind getting him. Everyone loves a clown.
I 100000000% want articulated Garfield action figures.
Scale is a concern, because, yeah, if these are 6" tall, would that make Jon & other humans 18"? Ain't nobody got room for dat, lol. Nor would I want a BST AXN situation where Garfield & Jon are the same height lol.
Binky would be a must, as would the U.S. Acres crew. With Garfield proper, I wouldn't really see much of a need beyond Garfield, Odie, Nermal, Arlene, Jon, Liz, Jon's family, Lyman, and Binky. I don't need this going deep, as I can't think of anyone else, and even had to look up Lyman's name, as only his mustachioed appearance was in my memories, lol.
But Orson, Roy, Booker & Sheldon, Wade, Bo, Lanolin, Mort, Gort, Wart, and the Weasel are absolutely necessary.
The world is overdue for a proper Garfield line, but this isn't really doing it for me. Garfield himself reminds me of the CG show that aired on Nickelodeon 10 years ago or whatever it was as opposed to a more classic interpretation of the character. I don't know. If they do holiday special themed figures they might get me, which would mostly be the Halloween special looks for Garfield and Odie.
He's too slim, he needs to be fatter like in the original comics. I would buy that version. And, seeing Boss Fight made multiple versions of Popeye, we could get it!

Double Dealer (who's working on these) said in a comment on his IG post about this line that Garfield is 4" tall, and the rest scale accordingly (Nermal smaller, etc).
