IGN
has some pictures of the new
Lost figurines that will be available in September. They're made by McFarlane and feature characters in scenes from the first season. For instance,
Charlie's sitting on a log writing F-A-T-E on his fingers and
Jack appears to be stumbling out of the jungle, still in his suit. There's also a larger one with
the hatch, and 11-year old boys everywhere will be begging for a
Shannon doll for Christmas.
The dolls look pretty awesome, with a few exceptions. While the details are pretty astounding, the faces of two of the characters seem a little bit off.
Jack sort-of looks like Adam Sandler.
Kate isn't quite right, either.
Locke and
Hurley look pretty rad, though.
Unfortunately, there isn't a Sawyer doll. So Kate and Sawyer are never going to hook up!

Lost. He'd
like to see her get scurvy, mauled by a polar bear, "vanish into a black cloud", or get shot in a special
guest appearance by Dick Cheney. He says that, despite her tragic back-story, Ana Lucia is not a captivating character.
He thinks she lacks depth and doesn't like her attitude. He also calls for the "killing-off" of Izzie on
Grey's Anatomy, so he may just be completely out of his mind.
Here are
five reasons to keep Ana Lucia alive:
5. We love to hate her. Why does everybody have
to get along? So she's abrasive and lacks common sense or civility. She has a management style thats, um, different.
That makes for a great, strong character. Even if we do hate her.
