Yeah....  So I have to have these...  even the Mole Man, which I pretty much never buy.  The art is beautiful.  The Red Death and Wolf Man figures are great!   

Not too concerned about Dracula at this point because they have already released Lugosi stuff... the bottles.  So, I'm expecting Frank and Drac in Wave 2.

Yeah, for as much complaining as we do around here about no good stuff coming out, I can't believe anyone would pass on these. IMHO these are the best thing to come out since Sideshow, and are up there with the greatest monster merchandise ever made.

Seriously?!   How much more spectacular can you get?   These are the greatest UNI monster figures I've ever seen...they captured the Remco mini-monster and Famous Monsters nostalgia 1000%

I'm buying at LEAST three of each.

I'm glad you like them. They are not what I collect. The cards are beautiful, though. The little figures just get lost in the mix.

I usually only get Creature stuff, but I have a few Mutant and Mole Man things, so I'm getting these for the cards!

I would keep an eye out this monday (october 1st). They announced they will be putting new items in the store and these ship to retailers on the 2nd.
Makes sense they would give their own store a day head start.

Oh Boy! A New DD newsletter with items sure to be best sellers and Super& Unis.....sounds like Halloween might shape up to be not so anemic after all this year. Yay!

The "Paper People" are all $25. The Fiend glows in the dark, as well.

Hey. Don't mean to be redundant but I REALLY want all 6 of the carded figs and LL 3 of the Paper People . So Where,How, How much etc etc. This would be my hugest find/buy in years. MY CC is literally jumping in my pocket at adding these  to my collection.  Thanks for the info whoever you are.

Monsters in Motion has (for pre-order) the 6 carded figures ($15 ea.), Frank and Wolf cut-outs ($25 ea.) and Frank and Creature buckets (20 ea.)  Also Misfits stuff.

There are dozens of local retailers that stock the various ReAction lines, not to mention a flood of 'accidentally-fell-out-of-the-Chinese-Factory' deals to be had....can't wait for this wave to hit! 

The most I've ever paid for one of these -- and I believe it was one of the Goonies and/or maybe one of wifey's Buffy figures -- was right around $12.   Also, you've got to consider that 80% of their lines (ReAction) end up hitting the clearance shelves before their time, which is great for penny pinchers like me!   ;D
(I ordered the entire set of Terminator figures directly from China a few years ago....cost me $25, hehe.)



(I've added a bunch since this was taken...the pic is several years old.)

When funko was involved they were $12 retail. Super7 reactions are $15. Not many of the super7 releases go to clearance and aside from the worst, none go out the back door of the factory anymore. Before the 2 sdcc figures i got a few months ago, i only owned 1 (a worst figure) and was a china deal ($5.99 shipped). If they were still funko, i'd probably own none.

Yet another creature, gonna be one helluva conga line this year.

I pre-ordered the Frank Bucket.  I'm not gonna get anything else.

I'm mighty tempted to ask DirtyHorse to build me one of these.

One of their "correct with the box art" series. Not sure why they did "Mummy" and "Creature" ones? The box art was done to match those kits.

This looks terrific! And the "Bama" on the tombstone in the background is a nice touch (or is that supposed to be a castle in the distance?).
