“I am not a number collectible! I am a free man!”
“Ha ha ha!”
My pet theory is that after a while “they” actually stopped trying to get anything out of No 6 …
and instead used him to sift candidates for “their” internal management fast-track programme.
What?!!!
No Leo “It is my sworn duty to see that you do conform” Mckern figure?
Pity
Without question one of THE best shows ever. So surreal…also best watched late on a Sunday night for some reason.
Looks like they are being designed by the same company that does the Doctor Who action figures. I wonder if that is because of some licensing agreement between the BBC and the manufacturer. On the other hand, it is a good aesthetic choice, given The Prisoner’s pedigree.
I wish there were some alternative for people despise Kickstarter.
Honestly, everything I have ever backed through pre-orders of any kind has failed to deliver.
…in our puny human dimensions, anyway.
The Prisoner is ITC not BBC.
I hope they know better than to offer numbered limited edition figures.
This is very nice, but let me know when they have a set that includes a KAR 120C.
There are numerous die-cast models of the Caterham Lotus Super 7 available.
How are you with model paints?
What I really want is a KAR 120C that’s the right size for a 4-inch Number 6 action figure to sit in and where I can pretend that he zooms around to confront his boss with broody face.
Me? I want No 6’s sculpture that’s really a boat… that will fit the action figure so I can play in the bath. I have some 5" white balls left over from a project which brings Rover into the action. There is no escaping The Village!
Maybe we just need to buy a Lotus and move to Portmeirion.
