Great and entertaining list...I would include Django Unchained from Enterbay and NECA. Personally I would have loved to see the Enterbay prototypes produced and sitting on my shelf right now...but the license deserves inclusion because it clearly did not mesh with current tastes for what was appropriate to be presented in action figure form and as a result both of these companies probably threw away a lot of money. In Enterbay's case lost money on the license and R&D...for NECA that actually got figures on shelves only to pull them they can add production and distribution costs to their debacle...the only people who made money off NECA's acquisition of the license were EBay scalpers...bad idea!
