    New Presidential Monsters at Toy Fair

    Presidential Monsters - ToyFair 2012

    To be honest, I wish he'd get on with doing straight-up presidents (only JFK and the previously-released Obama are shown), but I love the George Washington ghost, and the sculpts and packaging are just amazing. Those paintings are spectacular.

    Love the White House backdrop in the displays, too.

    You know, I was a little skeptical about these, but now I think these are really fun. "Yeti Roosevelt" may be the best name ever.

        Interesting, that Yeti is wild. I had seen art on Facebook for Van Palin and Hilvira...

                Wave 2?!! Excellent!! I think the detail and quality on these is excellent!

                I'd love to have Washington's Ghost- and the other new ones as well- of course!

                  Looks like the Presidents are on their way too.


                  Can't figure out who Jimmy Carter is.


                  I can't believe how quickly this line is expanding. When is the first wave expected to hit mass retail?

                    Carter must have something to do with being "nuts" considering his peanut connection....

                        Washington's Ghost looks worth buying. I also like the suit that comes with JFK. I love all of the outfits. I wish they sold non-monster versions of them. I would buy them for my figures.
                        If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                              ^I think that comes from the fact that Jackson is often depicted in a coat that looks a lot like Nosferatu's Count Orlock. Even on the $20 bill!!!
