OFFICIAL SPOOKTACULAR 2009 Thread!

[Radagaster]

Didn't they offer up Color Mort? Wouldnt he qualify as The Dead? Not 12" though if you want to be specific.

And there's still the last LSB we're waiting for.

 

[Boba Fett]

Got the 20th word. Submitted the words, answered the trivia question, and entered.

Wish me luck!

 

[thenammagazine]

NAM: Maybe. Dusty's MotW wish Watch her send me last years kit as a pitty prize, heh.

Next year I hope they just add a mort or dead figure with the kit.

Speaking of Dead....No 12" (The Dead) figure? Not even a sitter variant. Tradition has been broken

Yeah, that is VERY sad. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I'm not gonna count the heads as a traditional "Dead" release. Yes, we should've gotten a figure , but we all ranted about variants, so are we to blame?

 

[Entropy]

I'd rather no 12" DEAD than another lame variant.

Now I can spend some time replying to contest pages in the hope of winning the "Mouth Off" Contest thingie.

I wonder if they are rethinking the Dead line considering they are giving away butchers and had the priest and babysitter on the GC list for a while now.

Keep the ES's low, the variants non-existant (except for stealth PZ ) and this line can have a long healthy life.

 

[thenammagazine]

This is all true, and initially I wanted to say they should keep The Dead releases for Spooktacular, but tradition dictates they're SDCC announcements. That said, Halloween's gonna feel different without a 12" zombie release. And worse still, I'm not holding my breath that we'll see Amok's Bub in November either.

I think the two biggest problems were indeed all of the variants and then switching them to the Pro body. The Buck kept them cheap and stiff looking. The Pro has made them expensive figures now. They've gone from $40 to $80 in just a matter of years! Thats double their original prices!

Dunno. Subject: 245 is back on the Buck, and he's only $4 less than Subject: 16566.

 

[superdoug]

That still is yet to be seen. His hands clearly had Pro pegs at SDCC.

 

[ProgMatinee]

the dead line is dead.

 

[SOLIDSNAKE]

HAPPY HALLOWEEN ALL !!

 

[Buttmunch]

Nah, the Dead isn't dead yet. If we weren't getting the Specimen busts I'd get worried. But the announcements have certainly slown down.

 

[IrishJedi]

the dead line is dead.

It's not looking good, that's for sure. I got out of it a year ago and just recently sold all but one, and that one's for sale, too.

 

[daikkenaurora]

HAPPY HALLOWEEN ALL !!

lol hahaha thats awesome. Whats your costume this year?

:chew And Happy Halloween to you too. :chew

 

[Something Sexy]

Wow so no ssc dead stuff. Wf is up with that?

 

[Darth Madden]

Great picture Solid. Happy Halloween.

 

[Entropy]

Nah, the Dead line keeps on truckin'. SDCC was just a few months ago and we got 2 new zombs out of that.

 

[Kabukiman]

There is no way the dead line is dead. It's popular and requires no license. They may be rethinking the marketing strategy, but the dead are here to stay.
