    Super 7 Werewolf of London

    Finally, this figure that was first teased maybe 2 years ago (?) will see the light of Moon this fall! I'm so excited, I love the Super 7 3.75" monsters. I actually emailed them last year to ask about the Werewolf and was told he was "on hold". For me, this line brings back the joy my Remco monsters brought me 40 years ago when I was 10. I applaud Super 7 for making lesser known (to the general public) characters like Werewolf of London, Ardeth Bey, The Creature Walks Among Us, Quasimodo, Red Death Phantom, and Lugosi's Ygor.

    But I still wish the Werewolf had a few companions in a new and final wave. I'd love to have any of the following:

    Dr. Frankenstein
    Dr. Pretorius
    Carradine Dracula
    Son of Dracula
    Dracula's Daughter
    Kharis Mummy

    And then there's the Hammer monsters - those in 3.75" scale would be SO COOL!

    Where was this announced? I don't see a preorder on the site?

    That's a good list, but Hyde and Dynamo Dan would be nice, too. Even the Fly--S7 did Alien and POTA so may have Fox access.
    WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.

        It's been up for preorder on BBTS for several weeks now. Think it's already sold out though.

          I like it! Agreed, those would be cool! I've always wanted a Dynamo Dan figure. And when Hyde was issued awhile back by ... Diamond Select, I think? ... he was based on the Karloff/Abbott & Costello design. I'd love to see that look in this scale, too. Karloff as Mord the Merciless from Tower of London, and Poelzig from The Black Cat would be rad, too.

            Saw an email from them this morning saying autum (Fall) for him, almost appropriate for a werewolf figure.

              Good for a Halloween release, maybe some others will come out by then too.

                They have tried to plan their monsters around Halloween releases (give or take) for a while now.

                  I never saw WOL on the S7 site, but it's on ebay, in hand.

                    Cool, I'll take a look, eager to see it! Their email alert said it's going to be a fall release.

                      I just received one off ebay, it's nice. A bit pale, but it's the robe version and looks sharp. The card art is superb.

                      I'd love to see A&C Mr. Hyde, Countess Zaleska, Dynamo Dan, Kharis, and the Ape Woman to conclude this line. I think its only mis-step has been the Phantom of the Opera, with a poor likeness and no cape.

                      Actually, Super 7 is supportive of diversity and as an acknowledgement, I think a figure of Dr. Praetorius would do well for them.

                        Agree on the Phantom. That's why I use the ReAction one issued a few years prior; looks much better.

                        The Super 7 booth at the con this past weekend had no Werewolves, but I did get to tell them they should do Hammer next. They were like, 'Hmm... yeah, maybe!'

                          Mine just processed from BBTS yesterday and Super 7 sent me an email today that it's available on their website.

                            Yep, it went on sale along with a B&W Vincent Price. I have the color Vincent. I just wish they would give us a final full wave of monsters, rather than a single one. Then they could move on to Hammer!

                              Those sound cool.

                              I've been watching a few Vincent Price movies, so the figures sound fun.

                              I'd actually go for the unrelated song version of Werewolf of London, I like the fancy werewolf costume in the music video, that video is pretty funny, some things last forever.

                              I watched WoL on Svengoolie, I guess it's been a long time ago, but I've been trying to watch a lot of classics now in present day.
