We received an update from PhatMojo on what DuckTales product will be released by PhatMojo this holiday season…
Blathering Blatherskite!
The PhatMojo DuckTales Gizmoduck action figure will be hitting shelves before the end of the year. We were not told the release date nor retailer.
“Gizmo is coming in the not too distant future…”
Gizmoduck may be getting the green light as a test to gauge interest to help get the rest of PhatMojo DuckTales Wave 2 get released. We need to put our money where our mouth is by making Gizmoduck a hot seller so that will draw interest from retailers to stock the rest of the DuckTales PhatMojo line in stores. This Gizmoduck figure was already a must own for us, but now it is a MUST must own. We will share more info when there is more info to share.
The Gizmoduck packaging that we saw from the picture from New York Toy Fair 2019 also included a Fenton figure, but that Fenton was a cardboard placeholder. We have heard official confirmation from PhatMojo that a Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera figure is included in the package with Gizmoduck. We will share the final product picture as soon as we are able to obtain one.
we are sure that Lin Manuel Miranda will be geeking out about having his own action figures. Will you be picking up the PhatMojo DuckTales Gizmoduck action figure? Let us know in the comments below or tweet us @DuckTalks

Not bad – at least we will get Gizmoduck, but I was hoping for Della Duck….

Agreed. Gizmoduck was tied for my number one along with Della (at least from the figures we had seen). Although I would have honestly had to buy multiple of whatever Della was released because the girls would have wanted them all. LoL

Is it the only figure to be released by Holidays 2019?

That is the current plan from PhatMojo.

As long as we eventually get Della I don’t care what they release, even if she’s only sold with the Shpere.
I was hoping for Lena but since she was never revealed I’m assuming that’s not gonna happen.

We still assume there were figures planned for the wave that we never saw.

I personally think that we didn’t see all of Wave 2. We only got 5 new characters (Della, Darkwing(?), Lunaris, Boyd, And Fenton/Gizmoduck), and we got 8 last wave. It wouldn’t matter if Gizmoduck is an epic fail (hopefully not!) but I could see a Lena and Violet 2-Pack And Penny as figures, maybe even Magica.

So we need to make this sell out completly to make the rest happen by early 2020.

A strong release would get the positive attention the toy line needs, but I’m not sure how long that deal and production may take. We aren’t sure what has been made at this point.

October release? Anyway, hopefully we can get Della out. In my opinion she and Gizmoduck were the only figures we needed, although I do love the others, they were mostly variations, which weren’t needed since we already had them. Glad I contacted PhatMojo otherwise they wouldve just shown up and we wouldn’t know about the issue with retailers.
Where are they being sold at?

Yes! When you said Bill was talking to you I found his email and reached out. I also reached out to our previous contact, Shawn, and received responses from both.
They are very thankful for the communities response to wave 1 and hopeful that wave 2 can be produced.

Yes, but I’m going to cry if we don’t get Magica and Lena. Can hardly wait to see what retailer and date.

Gizmoduck was always going to be a Day 1 purchase for me for sure (or earlier, if it’s posted for pre-order). But I’ve been dying with excitement over many of the others, especially the Darkwing Duck + Ratcatcher set, which I swear I saw in the tradeshow photos from January. I’ll be so bummed if that one never sees the light of day.
Ironically, I was also eager for the release of Wave 2 in order to finish out my Wave 1 set. I’ve collected all the kids, Glomgold, Launchpad, and the Sunchaser (along with all the Coin Stack characters and the Disney Store figurine set), but I was being picky about the paint job on Scrooge and Donald. By the time I realized they were being clearanced at Target, I was too late and had already missed out. And while the Disney store sold them briefly, I could only ever find Launchpad and Glomgold in stock.

If you can find that image of DW and the Rathcatcher we would love to see it! We do have a picture of a mystery box and it looks like the shadowy outline of the figure was DW, but we’ve never had that confirmed.

Unfortunately the company (PhatMojo) making the highly anticipated DuckTales toys and figures lost their license for DuckTales at the end of last year. We are all sad to have missed out on such great products that were planned.

“Holiday season release…”
Does anyone else smell spoiled milk?
Jokes aside, It is now January 25th, 2020, nearly a year after the “reveal” and there has been nothing on the release, am I wrong to question if it was really planned?
I personally believe that if they really planned it, they failed to find a retailer, however I wonder why they couldn’t get Amazon, they sell basically everything that is still made.
My new question is: Why ignore us as much as possible? I sent them an Email in late November/Early December to have no response. I find the legitimacy of the “Limited Release” questionable.
Hopefully they come out and announce something, even if it’s cancellation, it’s better than ignoring us.
If I get a response I’ll let you guys know.

New York Toy Fair is next month so that might give us more information, but I wouldn’t hold my breath as my emails for more information are also not being answered.

I would personally help these guys. My kids have become huge fans of the show after it ended and I have purchased every toy I could find. Im curious why they didn’t turn to the fans to continue the license or help raise the funds to make a project happen. I feel like there is a new wave of fans of Ducktales in the past 5 years who would pay for Wave 2 and 3 to happen.

PhatMojo lost the license and the interest to continue the line. I tried talking to the CEO and letting me buy all of the Gizmoduck figures that were the closest to production to get into hands of the fans, but those conversations did not go anywhere. Someone did find the Fenton Crackshell Cabrera figure from that Gizmoduck two pack, and that did make it onto eBay. Diamond Select Toys has a Disney license and made products recently from Darkwing Duck and Gargoyles. They would be the ones to try to do something with DuckTales, but it would most likely be from the classic 1987 show. DuckTales (2017) got some great representation in Disney Lorcana set 3.

Our understanding was that Phat Mojo didn’t want to continue to pay for the license and let it lapse. You may still be able to find one of the Fenton figures that leaked.

PhatMojo lost their Disney license when it expired years ago. Your best bet would be to tell a company like Diamond Select Toys that you would love to see DuckTales (2017) figures.
