hi guys, this line was my personal pet project so i think i can answer some questions:
1. the mummy head is an exact recast of ahi, which we think out of all the attempts to do mego monsters was the only think that was actually done right (even though the paint sucked)
2. our understanding is that 2 will be released each october: frank and wolfman in 2010, drac and mummy in 2011
3. now that everyone knows that we're working on this property, i can say that the creature is indeed on our radar and didn't want to do it until we could take the time to get the engineering right. we did these first four relatively quickly, and some parts are not quite as i envisioned them, but still the best damn mego monsters to date. but the creature is a toughie.
in addition, these will be part of a "100 Years of Monster Movies" promotion we're doing through our FearWerx brand. Fans of monster toys will want to attend the Monsterpalooza convention in Burbank in April, where we're putting together a "Monster Toy Museum" on site.
For more info on the promotion, bookmark the web hub (FEARWERX presents 100 Years of Monster Movies -- under construction since we were TOO DAMN BUSY ON TOY FAIR to finish it), or join the facebook page (Incompatible Browser | Facebook).
cheers,
