[The Monster]

TOE did you get the pics I sent you in the email?

or a PF Ironman.

So, can any of the owners of the Mummy either exclusive or not chime in.

The previous posters are all correct. There is no cloth on the Mummy PF (color or SSE). I also read that the original intent was to use cloth bandages, but they had problems making them look right in production tests, so the idea was scrapped. And you know what? That's fine with me. The fully-sculpted look of the piece works perfectly.

Now, as far as a PF Iron Man goes, since the comiquette is already 1/4 scale, I'm not sure what more one could want in a PF version. There's no cloth to be found in his costume.

Does that mean you were actually the last person to get one or did you just randomly happen to get #50? Either way, its cool. Glad you and all the other SSE'ers are getting your Mummies.

My guess is that they were all shipped out the same day. I got mine today as well - #25. Pics will follow shortly.

Nice. Don't you also have Ardeth SSE bust #15.

 

[The Monster]

Yes Lonnie does have # 15.

Anton Phibes I will have # 33. Do you like my new look?

Yes, Nick is correct; I do!!! Now, if I could just get #13 on a Universal Monster item...

I don't think it means I was last. Sideshow has stated that numbers are shipped at random. My Mummy shipped last Friday along with most everyone else's in the US, so it was just luck of the draw I guess!

Regarding the "mixed media" question, here's a call-out from the product description:

Cast in a variety of materials including high quality polystone, dense foam, PU, and metal... strong magnets...

So, technically, mixed media.

Personally, I'm curious as to what, exactly, "PU" is; Plutonium? Polyurethane? University of Punjab? An acronym for something stinky?

I never had a problem with it being a mixed media PF that looked like it was all polystone, but it sure would have been nice if they could have gotten the "real" cloth bandages to work!!!

As for PU, I've got to go with polyurethane, but we could always refer the question to Pepé Le Pew for clarification...

That was funny because my Ardeth Bey SSE Bust is # 13.

Good one Lonnie

I wasn't going to comment on it, but since you asked....

Not a single pixel of color to be seen. If ever there was a case where Sideshow needed to make certain that one individual on Earth was a recipient of all future SSE variants, you are this case. Do you have any pets? I bet they are black and white, aren't they?

Seriously though, I am very happy for you. The entire time this "lottery" thing was going on, you were the only person I knew for sure was going to storm the gates of SSC with torch and pitchfork in hand if you missed it. KONGratulations to all!!!

Janus Model company did a smaller kit version similar to what our Mummy PF looks like years ago. It has some sculpted "loose" bandages. A friend of mine, who has one also (Color mind you) , is going to paint and weather strips of old cloth and strategically place on the piece using photos as reference. He isn't going to glue them onto the piece, just drape them in certain areas. Once he does this, I will take pics.

My bad...I have seen your collection.
