Are you familiar with the "Orbitron Diversus" version that was released? It is painted like the Mutant!


N haven't seen that one yet.

Houston, We Have Lift Off

We're live on Kickstarter, and as promised, you're the first to know! Enjoy limited early-bird pricing, a pledge level that entitles you to be part of Space Base history, and you can even snag the next generation of The Urban Playset! We appreciate everyone's support and are excited to introduce ReadySetz SPACE BASE!


Go to Readysetz.com and check them out. They are soliciting suggestions for ideas again so drop them a line about a Universal Monster style set.

Thanks for the info! If they release more masks, they'd better rerelease the Creature!

I'm pretty sure we're going to get the Creature mask in a more traditional color.  ;)

This is the way I think as well. Thus, I havent gone after the SDCC version.

IF SUPER 7 DOES MORE SODAS: THESE ARE MY IDEAS FOR FLAVORS/COLORS

1. FRANKENSTEIN; ELECTRIC ORANGE
2. WOLFMAN: FOREST ROOT BEER (BROWN)
3. BRIDE OF FRANKENSTEIN: PURPLE/GRAPE ....I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO NAME IT
4. MUMMY: GINGER ALE OR BEIGE TEA: TANA LEAF TEA (USE KHARIS)

THE SODAS ARE THE BEST THING I SAW AT SDCC AND GLAD I GOT A SET.

I'd do Graveyard Grape for the Bride.  :)

I also believe we are getting a regular Creech mask along with the other monsters pictured on the box.  However, I am still hoping to see it on Super7's site because I really like this color scheme.

....AND THERE WE HAVE IT! Graveyard Grape. I hope someone from Super 7 is listening, and makes more. Also makes them readily available without having to pay scalper prices of $17 a bottle shipped. :'(

I have a feeling the final Reaction figures might be slightly delayed because they're updating the card art.

I'm thinking there was a problem using Basil Gogos' Famous Monsters covers, and instead they're going to use the new Ed Repka art.

I can't imagine they commissioned him to do all those paintings for a limited set of art prints and soda bottles.
Plus, he did the art for the POTA and Nosferatu figures, so it makes sense.

I'm actually fine with that, because the early Wolfman card they showed wasn't even Gogos, it was Arliss from the Ray Ferry FM run.
The new Ed Repka art is stunning and has a nice consistent look.

I had a feeling those Gogos cards were going to turn out to be temporary art.

I too have had this feeling since seeing the soda bottles.  That is a-okay with me so long as they come out.  The new art is really stunning!  Would love to have had the Gogos, but this is great art.

They better come out on time or they will miss Monster Mash 2018. Meanwhile, from Readysetz FAQ:

Are there other designs and styles? 

 


Yes, in addition to the Space Base, we have the original Urban Playset (no longer for sale), the Urban 18 and the Urban Collector's Edition. Also, in process, we have a palace; castle; tomb; small country town that is designed to accommodate mini figures, small animals and pets; shopping mall, and a fashion related design (that we aren't ready to talk about yet). We also welcome suggestions from our social media followers and will try to give priority to their suggestions.


Castle and Tomb!
