    Dark Shadows Arrive

    These are perfect. They are extremely well done.

      Just ordered mine today. Should have ordered yesterday cause Barnabas is currently out of stock. They look sweet.

          They look pretty cool! One thing though...I don't remember Barnabas having such light blue eyes. I always thought his eyes were very dark.

            Those look nice! The packaging looks like something Mego would have actually done back then.

            I guess I'm not as up on Dark Shadows as I thought. Wasn't Quentin a werewolf at one point? I don't recall Chris Jennings. But then again, I only watched it over a few summers in the 90s on Sci-Fi (back when it was good).

              I have no dog in this hunt since I don't buy any of these re-mego's, but I must say that these appear to be the coolest of ANY of the 8 inch revival figs--the figures look great as does the packaging! That Barnabas figure looks like something Mego or AHI woulda made. Awesome!

                    Quentin was the first to be cursed as a werewolf back in the 1800's story line by Magda the gypsy. Chris Jennings was his presnt day(1969) ancestor who still carried the curse.
                    Ah okay. I assume they were played by the same actor?

                      No Quentin was played by David Selby and Chris Jennings was Don Briscoe.
                      Selby played about 4 different versions of Quentin throughout various timelines and one in the DS film "House of Dark Shadows"

                        You mean "Night of Dark Shadows", Quentin wasn't in "House" but I wish he was.

                        I agree on the sentiment that these are the "megoyiest" of the remego set. I almost feel like we should have got these as kids.

                          I hope the 1990's miniseries gets some figures too. I got to have Ben Cross as Barnabas in my collection. It would also be great if somebody did Megos for Anne Rice's, "Interview With the Vampire"!

                            Oops! I flip-flopped 'em Both flicks sorta suck so the point is moot But "Night" especially was a mess with all of that weird ghost/possession BS

                              "House" really captures the spirit of the series IMO, I've only seen "Night" while hammered in college, I remember none of it.
