    Premium Format What was your first PF?

    Boris Karloff as Frankenstein's monster colour version. Back then it was called quater scale and this was Sideshow's second pf. Think I got it in 2002.

    Sideshow Frankenstein Review

    Agreed, Universal Monsters is a licensing nightmare with the children of the original actors wanting more money than Universal is willing to give. We've seen that Hot Toys are willing to dish out the dough for likenesses with for example the Jack Nicholson Joker, but he is also a fan favorite...

    My life size freddy krueger

    Absolute perfection! And it looks like it would be easy to convert him in to a full statue later on.

    Horror...What do you know?

    Awesome facts. I can add to that: In BBC's "The History of Horror" host Mark Gatiss interviews Donnie Dunagan who played the little Frankenstein boy in Son. He tells that Karloff and Rathbone put pressure on Universal to make sure that Lugosi got a proper paycheck for playing Ygor. Lugosi...

    Horror...What do you know?

    Speaking of Dracula, here's an interesting "what if" fact. Before Browning, Chaney sr. and eventually Lugosi made Dracula for Universal, Paul Leni (The man who laughs) was going to direct the movie with Conrad Veidt as Dracula. Veidt, born in Germany, was worried that his english wouldn't be...

    Best Hoy Toys store in Hong Kong

    In the same building as toyhunters, you'll find lot's of little stores that carry all kinds of Hot toys and more. You might be lucky and find older figures, I was there in august and managed to find HT's Big Chap Alien. Toyhunters only seem to have the newers stuff, so I recommend you to plan...

    how long did it take to sellout dr doom PF

    The Doom PF mask is absolutely fantastic (as is the rest of the statue). I always wondered why they never used the same mask design for the LSB or the other Doom stuff they did. If they use it for an eventual lifesize bust I would get it and I don't really collect Marvel.

    Rank your favorite Freddy!

    FvJ has, in my opinion, a non-deserved bad reputation. It's a very fun movie that doesn't take itself too seriously and I enjoyed that alot. The final fight at the the end is pretty badass, and even though I am a big Freddy fan, one can't help rooting for Jason (is it wrong rooting for a...

    Any horror statues coming?

    If they continue the trend of 70's/80's horror icons there are lots of contenders. Texas Chainsaw 2 Leatherface, that Myers fella, Damien from the Omen, any werewolf from An American WW in London/The Howling, possesed Megan from the Exorcist, Pinhead, anything from Creepshow, Romero Zombies...

    UPDATE: ANOTHER Awesome New Bela Lugosi Bust!

    Re: Awesome New Bela Lugosi Bust! aaah, the amazing Mike Hill. One of the few artists who can actually sculpt Lugosi so it resembles the actor, both in likeness and personality. Case in point, check his new and improved website. The Dracula above is an early effort, the Murder Legendre in the...

    Emperor Premium Format

    I just cancelled mine (bye, bye NRD) I have room for two more Star Wars pf's and I am completely blown away by the the plans for the upcoming C3PO and R2D2 (who are more iconic also). Plus the pictures from SDCC was not that impressive. maybe I can pick up the 12 inch later instead

    Sideshow BTVS Faith Maquette Statue

    I would assume that the SDCC model is a "selling-in" model (at least that's what my company calls them). These are made especially for big retailers to display at conventions and various toyfairs. These are often prototypes, that are handpainted and made in low numbers. But since the shipping...

    I sold my Ardeth Bey 1:1 SSE Bust to China? That's news to me!!!!!!!!!!

    I saw one (american seller) go for around $1,500 on eBay a couple of months back. I remember thinking that was a bit low, considering it was selling for $2,500ish last year. Guess it's a mix of the economy and recasters.

    Statue New Cinemaquette - Creature

    An easy pass for me, bit static pose and I love the PF from Sideshow. It could be interesting to see their version of the other classic monsters, but looking at their actual production figures I don't thonk that I will pay $2.000 for a Frankenstein monster with minimal likeness and hairplugs...
