Super 7 "Official Universal Monsters Thread"

[fearliath]

The Remco card style Reaction figures (Nosferatu, Hitchcock, Toxic Avenger, Maria) are available on Super 7. They are only one per customer so they seem to be a bit limited.

Also if you buy them (and a couple other figures) before the end of the year and want to save some pretty serious cash ($36 overall) then take advantage of both their promo's right now. They have a by 5 Reaction figures and get 1 free promo. It is for any figures and is applied automatically at checkout. ADDITIONALLY, they have a $108 gift card for only $90 promo.

The gift card is electronic so you can use both at the same time and save $36 on 6 figures (coming to $12/figure + shipping). The gift card is good past Dec 31 but then you'd only save $18.

Mars Attacks Reaction Figures now available as well:

Some of the box text and bkgnd colors are different than on the color version box.

[Subatomic_Matt]

It's neat... but can we please get the rest of the GD series 3?!

I believe there was some discussion on here a while back about why the Metaluna Mutant was no longer featured on the card back of the UM Reaction figures. I just came across a post that explains why:

Does this mean that the Super 7 figures are the last thing to ever feature a Universal licensed Metaluna Mutant? Have there been any since?

That's the answer. I knew there had to be more behind it other than "we just don't want to include him on our card backs anymore".

Wow, had no idea. Can anyone elaborate further on the exact details?  Who in question is supposedly the rights holder on the design of the costume?

[Mike Scott]

That is the weirdest thing! Who else, besides Universal, could possibly own that design? Universal always owned everything that they created, unless they didn't? Do you suppose somebody had a copyrighted design that predated the Mutant and looked enough like it to win a lawsuit?
