34 days and I still haven't received my Bride Of Franky Chair set from NECA. I called their customer service and asked to cancel and they refused, so I just filed a complaint with Paypal and the BBB. Neca should have a disclaimer on their website stating "In stock, but will take a month or who knows how long to ship to you because we suck".... $11 shipping well spent...
What's even more infuriating is that I could get in my car right now and drive 20 minutes to my local Best Buy and get this now.

They're probably up poop creek without a paddle. From what my usual suspects tell me, logisitics for most of the smaller toy companies presently is.....6th circle of hell.34 days and I still haven't received my Bride Of Franky Chair set from NECA.

I'm sure it is. I'm still waiting on my Syndicate collectibles Pumpkinhead 1:12 pre-order that was supposed to be released back in August. But at least Syndicate doesn't falsely claim that something is in stock and shipping, when it's not.

I was really bummed that in hand the figure looks a bit goofy.

The sculpt is spot on imo, I think the problem is the paintjob. The printing is also a little "fuzzy" and not as crisp as it could be.
I added some dark purple wash to the mouth to separate the fangs. I don't understand why they made it look like a block of chiclet teeth with no shading or depth between them. I also added some paint around the eyes to clean up the sloppy printing.

Yeah, could be that it's just a matter of unfortunate paint apps. Maybe the B&W will come out better.
That is why I didn't buy it. NECA's Nosferatu just looked cartoony to me.

He's been at Target for a few weeks now. I got one but ended up returning him.
The coachman disguise did not fit very well. No matter what I did it would not sit flush on his shoulders it kept popping up and knocking his hat off.
His wrist joints are also very flimsy and fragile. Mine started to tear when I tried swapping the hands out. I saw someone else had both default hands snap clean off their joints.
Also, the paint on the ones I saw in person were pretty sloppy.
A shame because I was looking forward to this version since I love the color one so much.

I'm seeing a LOT of the Silver Screen Frankenstein figures at local Wal-Marts, all marked down to $25.
