World peace keeper 3 packs sell for about 4 quid and the quality is pretty good so producing them musnt be too expensive. Diversity isnt a problem either just look at the custom section here. Ya know..., if Hasbro doesn't have the rights to the earliest Palitoy figures (either  and the gang, or the even earlier figures such as  ,  ,  ,  and  ), then they're really missing a trick. World Peacekeepers (or someone like them) could easily start churning-out generic SAS Troopers  by the bucketfull...  SPACE COMMANDER

Like that, but good. Just re-reading this thread. This is a good question, but I get the feeling Hasbro would just tell us to go and ask Devil's Due... like they did during the last set of questions.  SPACE COMMANDER
