Universal Monsters Retro Cloth Series 4

[Timothy2251]

Snagging both of these for my collection for sure! This line gets better and better every wave!

I just bought a creature a few weeks ago, it's amazing. Will be getting both of these as well. (and hopefully the bride, drac and frankie too)

The paint apps on this line is now off the charts. These are as nice (or nicer) than some of the 12" Sideshow Universal figures, as far as sculpts and paint apps go.

I'd love to see new versions of Frankenstein's Monster (this time, Karloff) and the Wolfman (maybe the A&C Meet Frank look?), since these new paint apps are superior to those two first wave figures (although I still love those).

preordered and wanting September to get here.

Does the Phantom have a mask? plan to get them both!

It doesn't look like it, If it did, I would agree that the Creech would get moved. Great Figure, but a mask would have taken it off the charts.

[PNGwynne]

I love the Phantom especially.

Oh, me too--even the skin tone is good.

[HumanWolfman]

They both look amazing! I cant wait!!!!

[The Toyroom]

Awesome!

I love my Dracula,I think he looks good as he is.

Wow,that Metaluna Mutant looks fantastic,that's defo on my list to get.Bravo EMCE.

I'm glad you like Dracula, but I still think he's terrible. He's the only one in the whole series without the actor's likeness, and the only one without "monster hands". His hand color doesn't even match his face...he sticks out like a sore thumb in an otherwise perfect lineup.

These look even better than they did in the cases at SDCC and NYCC. Excited to add these to the collection. As far as Dracula goes, it would be a dream come true if DST can reach a deal with Lugosi Enterprises to use the likeness across their entire UM range. Then, if TRU would take them, they could do a Lugosi Dracula with expressive (and yes, correctly colored) hands, and I would live to see them exploit Karloff as The Monster, needing only a new head scult and BLACK clothing. I think a full likeness of the classic Count and Monster would be great sellers, and we would all love 'em.

He's really not a bad Dracula, just not very Lugosi. Blame that on Bela Jr, not Emce. But the cape's collar mix-up is disappointing, and while the hands are easily swapped with Venture hands which match--why should we have to?

[Wise4671]

Just when you think they cant do any better on a Monster line BOOM they do this AWESOME!!!!!!! Can't wait to get these.

[bobws]

Well done guys!

[Gorn Captain]

They're both fantastic. It just keeps getting better and better.
Great sculpts, excellent clothing.

As far as Dracula is concerned, I love him (admittedly in a platonic way), and I liked the fact that it wasn't a Lugosi sculpt. He reminds me of some of the Famous Monsters covers, where you see Drac and Wolfman fighting.
IMO, this line is just perfect, and I can only hope it will continue, perhaps with a Jekyll and Hyde set? Ygor and a Vampire Bride?

[Earth 2 Chris]

Don't get me wrong, I like the Dracula, and I understand Lugosi Jr. just wants way too much money, apparently. So I understand the lack of the likeness, but it just seems weird that every other figure in this line got a new set of hands, but Drac didn't. I'd love to see a new version down the line. If Luogsi Jr. ever plays ball with Diamond, it would be great to get Ygor, but without him, I don't want a generic one.
