    I am soooooo getting these. And at $16 you can't complain about the price Mattel could learn a lesson from Diamond

        I have a couple of his custom monsters and they're some of the best I've ever seen, no doubt about that. And he really is a great guy

            Definitely getting both figures, but the wait for Series 2 is gonna be murder!

No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

                        Universal changes

                        Universal came back with changes to the paint and clothing so we
                        had to completely re-do the costumes and paint job to match the
                        style guide.

                        Are those additional prototypes or the final product? The reason I ask is the Wolfman looks somewhat different from John's prototype - lighter paint on head and no furry cloth on the arms. Still looking forward to these figures.

                            Unfortunate, I really liked the prototypes.

                              While I absolutely LOVED the earlier pictures, these new ones are cool too! I'll of course get every monster they come out with.... 2 a year? I wonder how many years we'll have to wait for a Creature From the Black Lagoon Mego style...? A couple of folks here are saying that Type-3-John worked on these. I got one of his Bigfoot customs, and I was so blown away- it is my favorite Mego style figure I have....

                                I really like the quality of these figures and will be getting these for sure. What is with Franky's green jacket?
