My guess would be Bloos, Macs & Cheeses, will be shipped heavily.

Maybe 1 Frankie figure. Kids don't like her that much.

One high-quality Frankie figure is all I want. Just one. Action figure, plushie, Barbie, SOMETHING that is made with genuine talent and love behind it.

There are other characters I want to see in toy form as well, don't get me wrong, but Frankie is by far my highest priority.

Same here. The anticipation is killing me.

Yeah that would be nice. But sadly, I don't expect them to gush over any major effort or profit into making a quality Frankie figure. The sad fact is that regardless of who the character is, the main cast will always get top billing.

Bloo, Mac and the trio will get the best stuff first and down the line they'd make the other slike Frankie and Mr. Herriman etc. It's a sad truth considering everyone on this board seems to have their hearts handcuffed to Frankie.

Truthfully, I would much rather have a plushie then a toy. I think a plushie would work best for capturing the animation style used to make Frankie and the others. I personally don't think a toy figure would really do Frankie justice.

Sadly I wish Foster's would of got in someone else's hands, the SB line sucks. The only thing I bought from that line was a big talking SB. I hope Foster's gets treated better & B/M at that matter.

Mr. Marshmellow sadly furthered my fears even more... I'm starting to feel very negative and apprehensive about the Mattel promotion.

Unfortunately there aren't any previews or any significant info available on the web, at least not that I can find. Don't give up hope though, we may get lucky.

It's Mattel. They don't do minor-ish chracter like Hasbro does with SW or Joe. I've never see them do a Krabs, Plankton or Sandy toy, they're all main characters!

Cassini90125 · 10-01-2006, 11:04 AM

I hardly think Frankie is a "minor character" in any way.

Voxxyn · 10-01-2006, 11:15 AM

That kind of perception about Frankie just angers me. I'm sorry, but I absolutely REFUSE to believe that Frankie is a minor/side character. How can the very character that basically makes sure the house is in good shape instead of utter chaos be "minor-ish"?

To me, she(and Mr. Herriman and Madame Foster) are as equally important as the so-called "Foster's Five". But unfortunately, I still feel that she'll get shafted by Mattel.
