Don't see any new Universal Monster figures among the regular line.  - Pass.

Would like to have a Frankenstein Keshi Gomu from the "Blind Box" figures, but I don't want any of the others, - Pass.
(I'll wait and try to get one from an eBay seller who buys up cases of figures and sells revealed singles.)

Looks like they will make Robocop fans happy.

The universal monsters wave 2 are about half way through the pictures with the red backing. I haven't studied them up to the original Reaction release to see if there are any differences but Franks got his green jacket on to make everyone happy  ::)

Creature has chains around his wrists and ankles, so that's different.

I had a feeling that they were new as they're announced as wave 2, I'm sure it'll be some more killer card art so I will probably pick some up although the Neca 8" clothed range are going to take some of my money this year I can see.

I've seen a couple of pics from the Re-action and Super 7 displays of Uni Monsters stuff and I noticed on the bottom shelf next to some retro Collegeville/Ben Cooper style costumes there appears to be a number of replicas of the 1960's Monster Glasses. Also, I saw a whole line of Monster Soakies.

No costumes. Just a retro mask in a retro box.

Different art, though.

Thank you. They originally planned to release in Sept with some other Halloween geared items but they really hope they can get them out in June. The cost isn't set yet. They're trying to make them as buyer friendly as possible (cost wise) but they aren't a mass produced item (and they're officially licensed) so to make a profit they have to be quite a bit higher than dollar store bubbles. I think they came out looking pretty awesome.

I was hoping something like the candy buckets. $20-25. The originals are around $100, so you wouldn't want to be anywhere near that.

Oh yeah. $20ish is more the ballpark. Also these ARE going to happen so if it's not in June don't panic. It WILL happen by early fall.

I didn't see the Soaky characters - definitely want one of those Franks - Maybe two, so I can give one a better paintjob.

The 3¾" Franks looks like a Burger King repop.
