I'd like perhaps Owen and MacBeth before the line ends. Beyond that, I don't really need The Pack or too much else.
Didn't see a post for Gargoyles, so here we go. Like most, I hate the extended wings packed with the Gargoyles. However, the draped wings are making me appreciate these figures more.
Grabbed both versions of Xanatos recently:
whete did you get suit Xanatos from?!??
If you're interested in another Goliath variant, Limited Run Games will be including a cel-shaded version of NECA's figure with all of the collector's editions they sell of the Gargoyles Genesis/Megadrive video game reissue. It seems like it would have been the perfect avenue for the pixel-deco edition of Goliath, but I guess that just made too much sense. As for the game, great graphics for its time, not so great gameplay. I am all set. Preorders start tomorrow.
I want the figure…not the rest
These seem to move in my Target, but not so much the Walmarts around me. I think Goliath & Hudson were quite overstocked here.
I feel like this always should have been a niche line, so I can't imagine how it could be doing any worse than NECA's other properties (barring TMNT) unless they overestimated demand...

He's been available on AmokTime for almost 3 weeks now. I got mine delivered the start of last week.
Picked up the Steel Clan at my local Target. Woooweee, man! This is a cool ass robot! I have some minor complaints with some like, scuffing of the metallic paint/plastic on the wings, and there's some paint scuffs on the legs, but like, I kiiinda don't mind so much on an army builder/robot? They're not awful at least... But the figure itself is awesome! Just big and hefty and neat.
And yes, I'll admit the folding wings do certainly help.
I saw on facebook that Lexington has landed in NY. Hopefully, he will be popping up in other areas soon. It will be awesome having the main crew all together.
I was able to get Lexington at my LCS today.
It might be due to him being in a hot car for 2 hours, but his lower torso and heads can pop off easily (right now), but go right back on with no issue. His tail also went in a lot easier than any of the others, so I'm assuming the heat is part of the current issue.
I'll wait and see until NYCC or ToyFair about the line. Nothing would surprise me. The figures are beautiful, but I'm not exactly a Gargoyles fan. The Hunter(s) which was featured on Xanatos box along with other deep cuts I saw suggested were the real draw for me. So I'd be disappointed if the line ends with just the Gargoyles basically. No interest in that.
Oh hey, the line isn't dead.
Will probably pass on these two, though. Gabriel is an interesting choice. We've seen Coldstone already, so I'm wondering when he's coming.
In the PIxel Dan walkthrough, Randy mentions that if support continues they want to do stuff like accessory packs and The Pack.
Of course, everyone deciding that all they wanted was the Manhattan Clan isn't really going to make that as possible as it could be.

I'd have to look more closely at comparisons, but I assume Gabriel is basically a new head and the rest is re-use so it makes sense from that perspective. Hopefully we can get a lot of non-marquee Gargoyles that way.
I never said the line was dead, to be fair.
I only repeated what I had heard, and that was that it wasn't doing as well as they had hoped and that Walmart was supposedly no longer carrying the line.
Personally, I'm happy to see the additions, but Randy's wording of "If people will support it" makes me a bit nervous that what I was told was right...
