[Anton Phibes]

What we have been told was a licensing nightmare, apparently is going to happen. Hammer Horror mini busts by Titan Merchandise:

The Lee Dracula and Pitt Countess Dracula are the first two offerings. Lee will be mine, but I didnt get into the Pitt films, so easy pass for me there. Bring on the Peter Cushing Van Helsing!

Thanks Richard! I may have to pick the Lee Dracula Bust!

What about the 12 inch figure of him as Dracula? was that the only figure in that line?

 

[D'oh!]

Those look fun!

Yup. Licensing problems. Lee had them in court because they never acquired a license for his likeness. A judge ruled the figure could be released, but with no mention of Lee at all whatsoever. Dracula was the first and final figure.

update: better shot of Lee

 

[Morbach]

That Lee bust is great looking.

 

[warrior13]

Both busts look great. They nailed the likenesses. Does anyone know if this is a new company? Are their final products as good? I look forward to the Lee bust.

 

[D'oh!]

Nice update!

 

[Anton Phibes]

Nice update!

I CAN HARDLY WAIT FOR CUSHING and some of the monsters!!! Lee is a must despite having several items of him already.

I was told at my comic store that i couldnt order this from them anymore because Diamond dropped it from their Previews magazine/catalog/ordering book. Anybody know what gives? Is it just Diamond or has the line been put on hold? I cannot find any information.I wanted this Dracula.

The Lee Dracula bust looks great! I bet they got Lee's approval this time.

Wonder if anyone has a Christopher Lee collection focus? I've been wanting to start one myself. But like I need to collect more.

I guess a reason for the canceling could be that the topic only garnered 12 responses since September

Rub that salt in real good, G.B........

Couldn't help it man...

It really has been a rough period for fans of classic horror. All these promises and products that just never materialize.

MAN! THAT'S LOOKING NIIIICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are making me want this bust Richard, ...STOP IT!

 

[Mr. Midnight Dreary]

Titan Merch are twits if they cancel this before giving the market a chance. I don't particularly like pre-ordering things unless I have to but would 100% laid down my money when these showed in-stock. Here's hoping for the best and it is just a diamond issue.

 

[dookudude]

Yes, please release this. My favorite Dracula of all time, he had the sinister down perfectly. And those eyes, they haunted me as a child.

 

[Anton Phibes]

Well...theres still hope. I mean, just because Diamond isnt carrying it doesnt mean Titan isnt doing it. I just wanted to throw this thread back up hoping someone could let us know who will distribute or will they offer it directly via a webstore? Anybody know? Some body? ANYBODY???!!??

MAN! THAT'S LOOKING NIIIICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are making me want this bust Richard, ...STOP IT!

Resistance is futile.


Years ago Mike Hill did a little series of the Hammer monsters in kit form cast in resin. He sculpted Mummy, Dracula and Werewolf in just slightly larger than 1/4 scale. Then he was done because people were recasting them (a problem that even SSC faces it seems). Ive got two of them. So let me tempt you with more love for Hammer...

I LOVE MIKE HILL'S WORK! What will it take for you to part with those?
