    Not yet here. But usually they bill on the day they ship. I imagine you'll start seeing that on Monday when their regular office hours resume.

      I was wondering when Doc said new sculpt if that meant Kharis was taking the back burner. A little bit of a disappointment to hear that they are going with Imhotep, just because we have seen this version in so many of the recent Sideshow and Diamond offerings. Not surprised by this turn of events, because Karloff's Mummy is probably a better guarantee as a seller and Kharis might be viewed as a little more risky. I'm certain I will still get the Imhotep, but I would love to see a Kharis in this line eventually.

        Those look great.

          Any chance of seeing the Kharis version as a variant/exclusive?

          Love the packaging. Is that the final with the monsters in Black and White in the circles, or are those going to be painted? (I'm thinking Gogos style would be wonderful)

            The license that Diamond got was for Karloff so it's Imhotep for the Mummy.

            The funny thing is that we purposely did the Glenn Strange Frankenstein
            to avoid any issue with Karloff's family.

                    These look REALLY great!

                    I'm wondering though - with those (AWESOME!) splayed-out hands on a couple of them, will you be able to take their shirts off?

                    Thanks and take care -

                      Brilliant choice Paul. Yeah I met Sarah Karloff a number of times. Wonderfest was the first to get a private screening of Karloff in color from the Son of Frankenstein test footage before it was made public many years ago. What people do not know, is that reel also had her as a baby running around naked. It was funny. She's a sweet lady, but I wouldn't want to be on the business end of the table with her. They protect her dad's likeness with an iron clad fist. Having an eight inch Glenn Strange figure is something I've always wanted, so you've made yet ANOTHER dream complete for me. If only someone would make Abbott and Costello in that scale! Well... I can still dream.

                        You guys definitely deserve props for putting out the Glenn Strange Frankenstein! Not that I don't like a good Karloff Frankie head sculpt, but very cool to get something just a little bit different with this line. And understood as to what Diamond got the license for with respect to the Mummy. You can only work with what you get and I'm sure you have a cool figure in store for us.
