It will not be the first in the line, it will be the line’s first horror figure.
Fabio was really forthcoming and cool on the livestream. A breath of fresh air to be honest, compared to the 'I'll have to check' kings InArt, dead silence pioneers Hot Toys, and 'disagree or criticise and I'll block you' Exo-6.
I watched the stream as well. Too bad they can't do Top Dollar.
Just watching the Q&A with Fabio from KP and he mentions there will be 3 different versions of Conan.
Normal, War paint version and a San Diego Comic con exclusive version, all will be medical grade silicone bodies.
.
The Crow will also have 2 versions, one with naked thorax as seen at the start of the movie and one with full outfit.
The Maestro line will feature a more expensive deluxe version with rooted hair, and also a more affordable standard edition with sculpted hair, though the standard version will still feature the moving eyes and genuine leather.
KP were not completely happy with Van damme from bloodsport, so it is being redesigned from the proto that had already been shown. It will have a new head sculpt, body and hands.
Van Damme will be a regular release, though it will feature a silicone body and moveable eyes.
Also doing the prototype of Chong Li as we speak.
Labyrinth will start with the Goblin King and probably some of the puppets.
Kaustic Plastik have the Dark Crystal license also. Those characters will be a more static figure because of all the different body types and shapes.
Working hard to get the Exorcist license, If confirmed they will be making Max von Sydow and Linda Blair.
Re-Animator figure will also feature moveable eyes.

Some third party may come through with an unlicensed release.
Though not sure I’d need him.
Interested as to what the two pack will include being two Eric Draven figures?
Knowing this will include a diorama, I’m leaning towards them making the chair,
don’t think they’d attempt the window.
Also hope the guitar is properly detailed with real strings.
With the seamless body, we’d hopefully be able to pull off this pose. It’s great to hear every release under the line will feature their own unique silicon body, my concern would be how accurate will they come to each actors physique.

Yeah I'm probably going to get all 3 Conan. I imagine exclusive will be battle of the mounds.
Horror fans are the best, seemed genuine.
All these other companies don’t seem down to earth at all.
Thanks you for that info. Glad that they will offer a stadard non-rooted version. After my Inart Aragorn, nah, rooted isn't for me. I will not continuously style the hair...I just can't.
Cong Li is WONDERFUL NEWS!!!!!!!
I thought the Van Damme sculpt was great, well kudos to them I guess...
Exorcist would be nice in 1/6....I can see then doing a bed also and a Linda Blair normal head....that might actually need ROOTED hair..

Hmm curious.
I was never a fan of their figures, the paint apps are a few steps down from Inart or HT while prices matched HT. There was always something that felt third party about them. Let's see if they can step it up.

Their prices were hot toys, BUT they included more stuff like 3 heads per figure....to me the heads are the key to this scale and to have 3....is the value. Heads from 1/6 1st party vary but typically over 60-100 dollars per.
Hot toys has the best paint apps in the industry easily imo...well InArt now, but what KP offers is definately a better value than HT.

With how easily the paint removes on InArt sculpts I’d disagree, still would say Hot Toys currently but that isn’t saying much since we’re talking about mass production.

Such a fanboy. Literally take any chance to downtalk Inart while praising HT while ignoring HT's issues.
HT paint rubs off easily too. Their Mace Windu for example often has the paint rubbed off on the top of the head due to packaging. Nose paint another common issue in general. Along with shiny spots due to packaging.

Can’t be a fanboy when I tinker with everything I own.
Most being custom work already.
Not a brand loyalist of any kind,
I call it straight with everyone.
Whether that’s Hot Toys butchering the ‘89 2.0,
InArt butchering the BVS Superman proportions and suit, or JazzInc butchering the ‘89 Batmobile with injection molding QC defects.

Oh Thank God.
I was seriously worried about being priced out the hobby for a moment there.
Great to have options
Oh dear, I thought I was safe from this Maestro line for a while... but this is a must for me.
An absolute pinnacle icon of Horror from a genuinely brilliant film, Reagan in the bed is a must - Merrin is a maybe.
Its a shame considering they have been systematically doing all the great Dracula performances, but its not one the hobby needs - the Redman 2.0 figure is excellent.
Though I would have welcomed their takes on his various vampire forms, especially the Bat-demon look from his scene in the Asylum and his Prince Vlad look [the Redman looks decent but not as good as their take on his main vampire look]
Horror, yeah this line could prove deeply dangerous to my wallet.
Hoping they tackle characters done by some other companies not quite as skilled as KP, the possibilities are endless.
Great that Re-Animator is getting some love, not one I see myself prioritizing getting but its a great film and character.
Action hopefully means a chance at a 1/6 John McClane and Hans Gruber!
Not franchises I'm invested in, but I'm really curious to see how they come out, especially the less human characters and puppets - just from an artistic POV I am keen to see how KP do at making these sort of characters.
Exciting stuff, love KP as a company and excited to see where they go, love that they are keeping affordable options as well as offering higher-end takes on characters, this is a hobby where people have different budgets and its nice to see some companies realising that [cue me reproachfully looking at Inart not offering a sculpted Hermione or Legolas option and Jazzinc putting paywalls on SKUs]
I have all their monster line figures so far. In hand the paint apps look great, especially the Horror of Dracula figures.
Also, they include with their figures like dios, multiple head sculpts, multiple accessories. Def not 3rd party.

Here I thought I was easily going to avoid this line and they go an mention the Exorcist. Interest has been piqued, damn!!!
Yeah this line could be the breath of fresh air the hobby really needs. Tired of companies competing for the same IPs.
Horror needs its time in the sun, could you imagine an original Krueger or Jason from part 3 or 4 made by someone other than Sideshow? I’ve got custom ‘78 & ‘81 Yunsil Myers covered.

I'm getting Conan for sure! Also, it's a shame Oldman's Dracula isn't in the cards. I wonder why he's not possible? Dracula (old and young) and Mina would be instant purchases.
