    Ctvt case

    Overpriced, IMO , but still would love if there were other cases like this



    Anyone ever see one of these? Wonder if the art could be switched out for a custom pic or wgsh art.

    That's pretty neat

    I like the Dida ones 100% better though

      yeah i saw those,there are three different carry cases,Kiss,Mad monsters & retro figures.these are really cool,great idea,the bad news is that they just cost
      to much,$40 a pop ,is just to much,id rather buy figures.however if they go on sale for half price,i would buy them.

        yes they look cool.... good idea.. bit expensive though yes hope the plastic handle is better quality than the plastic on ctvt figures.... else if that goes you got a bunch of smashed ctvt bodys :(

          Yeah, if they were $20-28 , I'd try one out . Would love to see if I could customize it a bit too

            For the Monsters,you're better off paying the extra $20 and getting the Castle.

              Made some money on eBay selling off an old guitar pedal, so I broke down and ordered one of these. (the sight of my rapidly growing pile of Megos helped convince me! )

              Overall, it's not a bad case. Solid constructon and sturdier than I thought it would be. The inside trays are tougher than they look. It holds 12 figures easily and I've temporarily snuck in a few more in the "accessories" area, until I get their cards done.

              Still think it should be $10+ less, but I'm happy with it.
              Best of all, the artwork is indeed easy to change (see pic below).

              So if any one of you packaging guys is in the mood to create a nice WGSH cover, I'd be very interested.

                  Is it just me or does this remind anyone of those Trapper Keepers from the 80s? Thats what this looks like to me. The dsingn is nice but really, who would use this? And why are the covers so terrible looking?

                    wonder if they will offer up blank ones in the future for a couple bucks less. The art would be the first thing I'd toss out.

                      Looks great! All of my retros/MEGOs are boxed or carded but if I had loose figures I'd get it.
                      If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                        No joke. Bought the kid a set of the new issue of CTVT Monsters for Xmas. Frankie's arm basically fell off yesterday...

                          As someone who has the new issue monsters, did they fix Dracula's bodysuit or does the crotch of the suit still stop half way up the thigh?

                            Not sure if this was posted somewhere else: Did anyone else notice the Kiss Dressed to Kill figures on the cover of the CTVT
                            Kiss case? Look pretty cool.

                              Agreed. These are way too much money (esp. since the figures are so cheap), and I'm not crazy about the art. For $40, you should get the art you want.
