      So in the end whats the story?

      Is the Retro Cloth Line ending "after" the Phantom/ Metaluna?

      I cant figure out which is being discussed. Thanks.

        Yep, that's the news so far, unfortunately...

          Disappointing, but understandable. A truly great line.

            Man suckage!!! So the last figures we will see in the Retro Cloth series I assume then would be in fall 2014 (Revenge Creature, and Son of Frankenstein)?

              No, what Chuck from Diamond and Paul at EMCE are saying is that the Phantom of the Opera and Metaluna Mutant are the last of the Retro Action cloth line (the Mego-like figures). Chuck is also saying that the Universal Monsters (TRU) / Universal Monsters Select (secialty market) line - the nearly plastic action figures which come with diorama bases - look likely to end with the 2014 release of the monster from Son of Frankenstein, the Revenge version of the Creature, and the newly imagined Van Helsing.

                  Using Doc's website you can really piece one together.
                  If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

                        Oddly enough about an hour after this was posted FTC said the same thing.

                          I was hoping for The Fly too,as Chris said I hope to piece one from Doc's website.

                          I really was not into the Monsters for some time but since seeing them for sale at Forbidden Planet I have been hooked and also thanks to rche for helping me get a few also.It's a shame that this line is coming to an end.Bravo to EMCE for producing these,looking forward to getting Metaluna Mutant,the figure looks fantastic.

                          Never stand behind a cow when it sneezes.
