I think they are fairly limited. I've noticed that a lot of Mezco stuff disappears for good sometimes. I think the price on these might fluctuate once they come out. The black and white one might be very limited, though. With something like this, I just don't like taking a chance on missing out. There's something about Karloffs face as the Monster that has fascinated me since childhood. MEZCO figure good...GOOD!

I think it might be the best facial scuplt of the character on a figure ever.

I actually believe the color one will be limited and the B&W readily available. Preview exclusives are always limited.

That's sounds like you're holding a grudge. The real Flanders wouldn't do that. I hate Universal,  but am willing to support them when they get it right ( like they did here).

I will have to wait and see if my emotions against them still run high when its released.  I am drifitng towards dark side of the force territory with Universal marketing. Plus their new shared universe with Dwayne Johnson as the Wolfman and a centerfold as the Mummy isnt doing anything for me these days either. >:( >:( >:( >:(

Then definitely don't buy figures based on THOSE characters. Don't hold it against Boris.

I think the XO-Facto Frankenstein at the mill by Jeff Yagher is the best likeness of Karloff as the monster. Of course, that's a resin kit and not a figure. This is very good for sure.

An argument could definitely be made for that. However, imo, I would have to say the Billiken model is the definitive Karloff Frankenstein likeness.

BilliIKen definitely gets my vote. Mine has been gracing my mantle for over a quarter century.

Does anyone feel that this is way too green? He looks like a Martian in the picture.

I believe that is a poorly colored photo of the black and white version and not an actual product or physical prototype shot and I do think it is way too green.

I hope that's the case. I'm still leaning towards the black and white version at this point.
