Talk:Sectaurs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I was at Coleco throughout this product's lifecycle (although not in product development). One thing that struck me about this toy is that it was scaled to "Barbie-Doll" size (about 12") rather than the standard size for boy's action figures (about 5"). As a result, kids couldn't play with their Sectaurs and their G.I. Joes at the same time. After the initial failure of the line, it was re-introduced in standard sizes, but didn't catch on; perhaps the damage was done. Kind-of-a-pity, because the gross wierdness of the figures might have been very appealling to the same demographic that made Masters of the Universe a monster hit (...so to speak...). rewinn 00:01, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
One other thing: the first issue of the comic was distributed to employees by being bound into Coleco's employee publication. Kind of an unusual way to distribute comics! rewinn 00:03, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
