............or is this just a poor oversight on their marketing department?

I'm assuming it's because the monsters pictured are the only monsters being made.  If these do well I'd imagine the Creature (and maybe; Bride, Phantom & Invisible Man?) would pop up on the next series packaging!?

Mike,
Is there a different licensing issue that prevents this, or is this just a poor oversight on their marketing department?  Your thoughts.

They probably just wanted characters that you didn't have to sculpt an entire body for.

I wish they would go back and do AHI syle additions. Phantom, Werewolf of London, Dracula's daughter. They surely would be cheap to do, as our beloved original ahi's were inexpensively produced. Kind of like EMCE adding Chekov and Sulu to the mego Star Trek line re-issues. Just dont re-issue the originals.  Madness would surely ensue if that happened.

From what I understand there will only be Frankenstein and Wolfman available this year and Dracula and Mummy next year if the series sells well. I have mine on order already. No word on a Creature or Bride or Invisible man at this time.
