not my cup a tea. but if i see one in person it may change my mind.
Everybody needs to believe in something , I believe I'll have another beer!

 I have to admit that I haven't been a fan of this series, but that Mummy is a bit of a game changer. Definitely captures the Karloff Mummy at it's most fearsome. It accomplishes the awesome feat of making the Creature and the Monster seem tame by comparison. Kudos to Mezco, you might get some of my money after all.

Yeah, I may have to get that Mummy if it ever actually comes out, but NIX on that Leatherboy Frankie.

I only bought the Frankenstein because I liked the Creature, and I only bought the Creature because I knew we'd get this Mummy. 

That being said, I am glad we will be together with Mummy soon.   :laugh:

I've said it before & I'll say it again, I really hate this chimp-face Frankenstein no matter how they dress him (SoF animal fur or S&M leatherboy).

What he said. Too cartoony looking!

I talked to my local comic shop and had him look up several things to see when they might finally be distributed and he said his  Mezco mummy order had been cancelled with no explanation. Ominous indeed for a product that had been announced almost 2 1/2 years ago and then had it's release delayed and pushed pack more than a few times. Clearly there has been some issue with that figure that is causing a major hold up. I wouldn't hold your breath.

The Mummy's release date is October 2014 and has been for 6 months.

Diamond informed all their customers of this as did Mezco in its newsletters.
Promises promises...Ships in October? that is what you said in Apr. 2013.

Universal Monsters: 9" Mummy

Buried beneath the sands of time he rested, until he was awoken by Mezco's award-winning design team.
Now, Mezco proudly presents...The Mummy!
This iconic terror from the beneath the sand stands 9" tall and captures the intricate detail of each ancient bandage: from his mysterious eyes, to his legendary scarab ring.
With 11 points of articulation he'll be able to take out any explorer who dares to come between him and his tana leaves.
He is packaged in a full color, collector-friendly window box.

Ships in October 2013.

And we first heard about it in way back in Feb. 2012 (two years, 5 months and counting)

First I'm hearing about them, thanks for the heads up!!





I dig 'em!!  I would think that if the regular series does well along with the Deluxe Frankenstein that we will see Deluxe versions of the other two.

A few more pix:


Certainly does look cool though, I wanted to buy it a long time ago, and it convinced me to buy the other two. I definitely hope the planned release in Oct 2014 is legit this time.

Mord

 I could be wrong, but the face sculpt might have been changed a little. Check out the pix of the silver screen one on the previous page.

It's definitely a different face sculpt!  Good eyes, Mord!  (All eight of them!)

No idea, bro. This old pic just shows 6. Have you been visiting Dr. Frank N. Stein again?  ???

 Maybe they're counting my glasses as the other two. Love that picture in my old car, HH.

Remember that time you were on that date with that certain Hammer lady...  Yeah.  She definitely posted a selfie on Instagram.  Your noggins were in the background. 

From what I could see, it was definitely not an improvement over your previous car photo.
