        I don't like the color changes on the Wolfman, the prototype looked MUCH better. I was really looking forward to the figure, now not so much. I will probably still get one to repaint though.

          How are wave assortments chosen, Doc? My concern (related to the success & longevity of the line) is that the Monster & Wolfman wave seems stronger that the second wave of Dracula & Mummy... should both big guns be relased first?

          It seems to me that balancing characters would be wiser long-term. For example, the very popular Gillman could help carry the Phantom in wave 3;
          a coveted female character like the Bride could support the Invisible Man in wave 4.

          Just my opinion...

            Dracula isn't a big gun? I've always thought of him and Frankenstein as the big guns, with Wolfman and Mummy secondary.

              The Wolfman looks a bit like Werewolf by Night, which only adds to the appeal for me.
              Meanwhile, how cool will it be to pose the Dark Shadows Wolfperson alongside Universal Wolfman? And don't give me that Twilight nonsense, Wolf people don't get along or work well in groups. A terrifying battle would ensue. It could be the long lost Universal classic monster mash featuring new, up and coming monsters VS the original line-up. Since we actually got House of Dracula & House of Frankenstein, I'm gonna call it "Lair of the Wolfman".

                    I think if you put the EMCE Wolfman head and feet on the Dark Shadows werewolf body, you would have the perfect Wolfman. Hmmmmm....

                      I love these! . . . and will have them all
                      But correct me if I'm wrong, doesn't Drac look a little too much like Pee-Wee Herman?
                      Just sayin' . . . .

                        Dracula DOES NOT look like Bela Lugosi - but trust me, he doesn't look
                        anything like Pee Wee up close.

                          I think Dracula is a big gun, I'm just not sure that he's perceived as such in terms of merchandising by the average collector. Especially with Wolf Man more high profile now...

                            Frankenstein, Dracula and Wolfman have always been the Big Three in the Universal hierarchy (in that order)....4th would be probably be The Mummy and The Creature FTBL would be 5th.

                              Dracula is a big gun when he's Bela... but I suppose he's somebodie's big gun even when he's not. If he's Jack Palance, then I am happy. However, he seldom is...

                                The Monsters look great but what really got me excited were those pic's of the Trek figures! Pike and the Salt Sucker! Yes!!! I even like Veena as an Orion Slave Girl. Is that female character supposed to be Nurse Chapel? She looks more like Sally Kellerman from the second pilot. When are these going to be available?
