[Joranthalus]

i could be wrong too, but i remember something about the klowns being in scale with the previous figure that Sota or Neca did...

 

[galactiboy]

Nope, you are right... I checked the website.

The good news from the pages of Amoktime.....

"His Bite Was Outta Site"
Coming in early 2009 the first ever "Blacula" Collectors Action Figure. The figure will include 3 interchangeable heads from three different stages in the evolution of Prince Mamuwalde.

The bad news....

As shown at Toy Fair our Super Size Creature and Frankenstein collectors figures will have an unfortunate price increase. Originally solicited at 119.99 they are now 149.99.
Why? Prices have risen substantially for oil and labor and it leaves us in a very tricky situation. We have two options:
1) Cancel product because of the manufacturing increases.
2) Raise the price of the item to reflect the manufacturing costs but make it.
We have opted for the later.

Awesome!!! I was a little worried about this one seeing as how they only talked about the license, but initially didn't have any photos. That is sick looking and a definite must for my vampire collection

That sculpt is great. I am by no means a fan of the Blacula films, but the likeness is so good it makes me want to get one.

Love the defeated headsculpt... badass

 

[creecher]

I order one. Three times by mistake. Just to be sure to be sure to be sure. I cancelled one after I pre-ordered the second one, then a week later forgot what I had done and ordered another. Amoktime must think I'm running amok. Happy to have one.

I went to the Wonderfest in Lousiville, Ky. today and lo and behold the first wave of these figures were there to promote the line. Got to see NOTLD Zombie, Rondo Hatton, Saucer Men, and actually purchased Teen Werewolf and Teen Frankie. If you live within a 2 hr. drive or so to Louisville, Its a great show, and you can get yours about a month or so ahead of the actual online order shipping date. The paint aps are a little dark, but they come with bases with the film logo on them and are generally cool.

 

[Anton Phibes]

More pics, although not that great.

 

[Joranthalus]

you lucky bastard! I can't wait to get my hands on them. Wolfie looks a little dark, but Frankie looks great, imo. I'll have to see wolfie in person before i decide whether or not i should repaint it...

 

[abake]

Too bad about the price increase, but the figures look fantastic!

 

[galactiboy]

Great score man!!! Did they have Gort and Klattu on hand? Just curious how they looked in person.

I think I posted this before, but I was told by one of the sculptors that all pictures that have been posted on line of Gort and Klaatu were factory samples, NOT the prototypes or paintmasters created by their studio. No reason to expect the final product to look any different. Still, I am anxious to have this on my shelf as well.

 

[yruh8n]

I'm not a big horror fan, but I may have to buy this just for this head alone. With a shave and a haircut this head will make a nice Prof. Daystrom from the classic Star Trek episode "The Ultimate Computer".

So I went into Amoktime today and they had a lot of the prototypes in a case. They looked awesome, can't wait for The killer klown.
