McFarlane gets ‘LOST’

May 25th, 2006 by Laz

McFarlane toys have just announced that this fall they will be giving Lost fans something new to obsess over. The toy company has landed the license to produce action figures based on the hit ABC drama.

Series 1 will capture six fan-favorite characters from the series’ first season: Jack (Matthew Fox), Kate (Evangeline Lilly), Hurley (Jorge Garcia), Locke (Terry O’Quinn), Charlie (Dominic Monaghan) and Shannon (Maggie Grace). Each 6-inch Lost figure will have a detailed base and photographic backdrop, capturing an episode-specific moment in the character’s story. In addition, each package will include a detailed prop reproduction central to the character’s story, enabling fans to “own” a piece of the show’s mythology. For example, Kate’s figure will be packaged with a reproduction of the toy airplane that plays so prominently into her back-story.

McFarlane will also be releasing Lost deluxe boxed sets re-creating key moments between multiple characters, and small-scale dioramas replicating central locations such as the mysterious island and the infamous hatch.

And with future lines calling for figures of Sawyer and Mr. Eko, fans of the show will have a lot to look forward to this year. McFarlane has already released the first pictures of the Charlie figure, and I’ve got to say that it looks incredible. Reportedly, most of the cast had full body scans done of them earlier this season, so you can expect the likeness’ to be right on.
