Unfortunately, Futuron might not be quite "classic" enough for the
demand (although I wouldn't mind seeing them too). But the Classic
spaceman--albeit with a newer-style helmet, I'd imagine--has no unique
parts and in fact only *one* printing to recover (and even that's not
a full-torso print, and it's only two-color). So I'd bet they could
make a packet with a Legends Classic Spaceman pack.
A great idea! Now, if we could get Futuron packs, great--but I'd
love the following available in packs:
*Classic Space Assortment $6.99 (5 figs: red, white, blue, black, gold)
*Classic Firemen $6.99 (5 figs: 4 classic w/ white helmet, one chief)
*Classic Blacktron/Futuron $7.99 (basically a re-release of set 6703)
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6703
*Classic Pirate $6.99 (5 figs, basically a re-release of 6251).
Others?
(I'd happily pay $8 for the packs, really.)
