Everything's Archie!
From plaidstallions, I never saw these Marx Archie figures as a kid or else I'd have been all over them, I've always been a big fan. These are prototypes of the actual figures as some of the head sculpts are off and they definitely didn't have articulated bodies like that, the actual product has that lame Sunshine Family style going on.
Is it me or does that Archie figure look pissed? It looks like he's ready kick somebody's ass off camera....

While I say "yay" to the concept of Archie figs, these look particularly lame, even for prototypes. Archie looks less pissed off than he does strangely wired -- if he is going to kick someone's ass off-camera, it'll probably involve lots of maniacal laughter and face-pounding.
I wish there were 3 3/4 inch Archie figs, that'd be fun.
My brother and I have discussed the possibilities a 3 3/4 line of Archie characters would afford more than I canre to acknowledged. The playset possibilities alone make me drool; Archie's jalopy, Pop Tate's Chock'lit Shop, The Archies stage; Mr. Weatherbee's office, Science Lab with Dilbert, oh I could go on...
The figures would be even more fun. How about Jughead in astronaut outfit.
I'm there! I hope there's a hamburger floating inside the helmet with him.
