That cow don't give cash. That's why they milk the releases out. Wakka Wakka...the bear is hot tonight.:chew:chew

You don't have any money anyway.

You are right, I don't have any money to be spending right now, Because I have something in the works.

Money is tight here also, Im really biting the bullet just to get the Creature Bust paid for. And I think after that I just can not afford any more SS stuff. As if SS is making that much Universal Monster Stuff anyways. And I noticed that the Boards Horror section has just become more and more stupid (in my opinion) bloody, zombie, freddy, jason crap. Most of the Universal Monster Posts just get pushed to the bottom of the stack, and what is there to talk about anyways.

 

[D'oh!]

Some Mezco Wolfman remake stuff here:

Depending on how good the movie is, I might pick up an item or two. The Wolf Man is my favorite of the classic creatures so I hope they don't muck it up.

 

[Mr ?]

With Wolfman this year, Del Toro's Frankenstein on the way (and a possible Creature from the Black Lagoon) this is the PERFECT time for new classic monsters merch!

Not even a new diorama? SS is getting less and less of my money every year...

I was looking through my collection just yesterday...and it wouldn't bother me if I never bougth anything ever again. My closet overfloweth. Its come to the point where I am going to have to leave anything else boxed up or get rid of something just to make room for...something else.

I think the manufacturers are even starting to realize its basically the same fan base buying all this poopy. That's why Sideshow 9and now DC) are making sculptures to hang on the wall and not just free standing ones. The ideas not new however. Janus models introduced it years ago.

Just when I thought I would get a brake, Sideshow comes with the Darth Vader 1:1 Bust!

Are Amoktime or ER at SDCC 09?

None for me ,thanks. BTW, I don't think Amok Time is there. Their website hasn't been updated for awhile now either. Hopefully they are just lax about updates and not struggling fiscally.

Executive Replicas was there. They are releasing a Shadow (pulp character) 12" action figure. But as far behind as they are with their releases, I prolly won't see it till 2020.

My wallet could use a break...so I am glad no Daredevil PF or Monster dioramas were announced..... just yet. Still, they're gonna get me for $280 for the Electric Tiki Shadow statue/ring combo and the 12" Shadow figure.

[Anton Phibes]

anything about the "king karloff" figure?

Yeah...but you ain't gonna like it. Its in stock at Executive Replicas right now. Limited to 500 pieces. Cost is $180.00. I aint joking. I also aint gonna buy it.

I am told that pre-order prices will be honored for this figure.

 

[Bonven]

the closest I've seen to anything resembling Universal Monsters was from some vinyl figures from Mezco, but the signs don't have a release date

they're kinda cute, but somewhat meh. Prolly just based on the iconography of those characters instead of a proper license

The whole thing was a mistake on the web. its the same price, and you're right...it's still in China.

 

[Hjalmar]

I must say I was sad not to see any Universal Monsters.

Richard, On the 29th of July 2009 I was told that the Karloff figures had left China and that it would be 30-45 days and then they will ship out to us!
