    Mine's still laying on a couch pillow. Not sure what to do with him as far as displaying him goes. I read on the Stretch Armstrong World website that they should be stored at a slight angle. How best to do that, when he's not boxed, is proving hard to figure out.

      I've got mine in his platic tray that he came with, leaning against a wall. Works OK for now.

        I'm thinking that we need something from Laser Mego.

            On the Stretch Facebook page they announced that there will be a 7" version of SA soon.

              Has anyone heard anything about Stretch Monster? Is he still in the works?

                I've seen these at the end caps in Target on sale for $16, if anyone needs one.

                  Hi Jase, I actually emailed the company and they confirmed Stretch Monster is NOT in the works. Sucks.

                    Oh man, that's a big bummer. Wonder what happened. I was hoping to add three Monsters to my Stretch family.

                      Thanks for the info. It is sad. I was really really looking forward to Stretch Monster. Oh well, still glad I got another chance to get Stretch Armstrong.

                        Really? Wow! I am stunned. I thought for sure this release was a big hit. I remember all the Targets in my area (and I have four of them) selling out of this figure two different times. Shocked they would not continue the next logical release. What a bummer. So sad to hear that.

                          That's a real bummer on Stretch Monster. The new Stretch seemed to be selling very well. Maybe it's a licensing issue?
                          You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                              I'm wondering if maybe it's too far removed from the Netflix series they have coming this year so they don't want to get lost in the weeds with making toys unrelated to the show. That being said, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if somewhere down the road they throw one out there if the show proves popular.
