The new product line, tentatively scheduled for Fall 2000, includes both articulated and non-articulated figures, as well as figural key chains. Product is to be available in both mass-market and specialty outlets.

"Like every other red-blooded American, I grew up with the Jim Henson characters," said Jon Huston, Creative Director of Toy Vault. "And I�m a big science fiction fan, as well, so being awarded the honor of producing figures from Farscape is a dream come true, blending two of my great passions into one project."

Raving Toy Maniac is proud to give our readers this special first-look at the control art for the first assortment of Farscape action figures supplied exclusively to RTM by Toy Vault. These approximately 6 - 7 inch figures are just now in the initial sculpting stages, awaiting approvals from the licensor.

As you can see from the control artwork, each figure will come with several accessories unique to the character. According to Toy Vault details such as the amount of articulation are still being worked out.

RTM will bring you updates on this exciting and anticipated line as information becomes available.
