HANNA-BARBERA ONLINE FEATURE COMING SOON
Including Concept Sketches by Acclaimed Hanna-Barbera Artist Scott Shaw!
They're the cartoon characters you grew up -- parking yourself in front of the TV every Saturday morning, wearing your pajamas with the feet. The Hanna-Barbera library contains some mankind's most memorable personalities: The Flintstones, Tom & Jerry, Hong Kong Phooey, Yogi Bear -- and the list goes on and on. These characters have been delighting kids of all ages for generations, and leave it to McFarlane to create the ultimate tribute with our first line of Hanna-Barbera action figures. Eye-popping color, extraordinary detail and dynamic poses capture the screwball antics of these icons of animation.
