My flash e-mail arrived today, Sunday, November 13, 2005 4:02 AM. I received the regular newsletter this morning as well, at 10:29 AM. Coincidentally, I've received another e-mail from them announcing that, in 1999, they will begin selling collectible 8 inch figures based on classic Universal monsters. I can't say I'm all that interested in 8 inch, figures. Perhaps, something slightly bigger, GI Joe or Barbie sized with actual clothing would be cool. I'd love to see a Frankenstein's Monster done in this way, with some chains, perhaps a Bride to go with him. A Creature from the Black Lagoon with, I dunno, a rubber suit or something, that'd be awesome, too! I'd go for some James Bond figures in this scale if done right, too. A 14" Jaws! How cool would that be? I'd also like to see some truly good Star Wars figures in 1:6 scale. Hasbro, doesn't seem able to accomplish this. Maybe they'll get wise and pass the torch off to someone else someday, so to speak. Can't think of to whom, however. Oh, and I hear that guy from "Trainspotting" will be in the next Star Wars film. True? I need to move to California or something and find an agent so I can be in it, too! If not Episode I, than one of the sequels. That'd be great. Oh, someone know what a Spongebob is? No, not yet, huh?
