This sucks. I wonder what happened? Damn...I'll be dead before I get some quality JAWS figures.
It's official now, Randy from NECA on twitter confirmed it.
Like Ghostbusters, Jaws always requires the three prime heroes to make a viable product. With Dreyfuss so uninterested, and now the Scheider estate also clearly selective, you have two of the three heroes seeming to be difficult to satisfy. I can't see any licensor wanting to spend time and money on a tough sell. Especially for such an ancient movie that appeals mostly to a 50-somethings and above audience.
I guess Die Hard may have the same problem with Willis or the creators. But Jaws and Die Hard have been seriously underrepresented over the last 20 years relative to their popularity. Now, time is wearing thin for those properties. I mean, 2025 will be JAWS 50th anniversary.

I cancelled both today. I should have done it when they confirmed Hooper wasn't coming. Randy just dropped the tweet like it's no big deal. Their Twitter feed is disgusting now it's all Turtles. I think they found their Marvel.
