ABOUT TIME!

[Dr. Blasko]

With a BIN of $25, I'm very happy with my purchase, as I'm sure all you who have followed my plight trying to obtain this figure can imagine. Now that I have it in person, it was worth the hassle, imo. Its a great looking figure that will look even better next to the rest of my collection.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR COLOR WOLFMAN DST, AT A DECENT PRICE TO BOOT!!!!!!!!!!

I picked this up when it first came out. Then I gave it to my dad thinking: No biggie, I will pick up another. It was hell getting it back. I cannot figure out why. It aint that great. Wolfman always gets the poopy end of the stick when it comes to toys and models. Likenesses always sucK.

8 inch Sideshow Wolfman: check: SUCKS
12 inch Sideshow Wolfman: check: SUCKS
Toy island Wolfman: check: SUCKS
Hasbro 12 inch  Wolfman: check: SUCKS

Even the 1960's stuff amalgamated Universal's Wolfman with Curse of the Werewolf (although I give 60's stuff a pass. Even if it sucked...its cool).

1970's Aurora Monsters of the Movies kit was awesome...and a pretty decent likeness for such a little kit.

The best Wolfman likeness on a "mass" production piece I have seen is Mike Hill's Wolfman pf he did for....yup: SIDESHOW.

Jakks Pacific Wolfman is pretty good.

But I am raving. Back on point: KONG-GRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eh, it's OK...

Wolf Man has always seemed like it would be the hardest sculpt to get just right.  Making a hard sculpt of all that hair and trying to get it to look natural must be a bitch.

And the layered 'natural' hair NEVER looks good.  They look like a kid's dirty plush toy.

Gongratulations on tracking down your nice score!

[Hellboyj]

Nice! I'm a little envious, actually. 

[Mord]

Congrats, Blasko, it's time to throw you a party!!! BTW, the Neca Wolfman Headknocker is a great Ray Santoleri sculpt for a very low price ( the B&W one is best). I think the Sideshow 8" is pretty good (better than DST), but Anton is right about the 1/4 scale being the best.

[Universal_Adam]

Congrats dude! I know how hard you've been trying to get that one! So what's next on your quest!?

[Dr. Blasko]

I still need the Creature and Mummy, but they're not hard to find.

[Universal_Adam]

I don't know if anything has changed, but my search for the creature at a REASONABLE price was a bit of a challenge.  (If you are referring to the TRU editions of each) I actually just saw a mummy figure on ebay today for like 20.00 I think..but it's gone now.
The only part of my DST collection that I'm currently missing is the Retro Frankenstein figure and the B/W box set

[Mord]

Good for you! The two you're missing are fairly easy finds (at good prices, right now).

[Dr. Blasko]

Yeah, I'm not worried about getting them. They're easy to find and at good prices. Hopefully I have the same luck I did with Wave 2 when 3 hits, and not my luck with the Wave 1 Wolfman lol

[Dr.Terror]

congrats!!   I was seriously thinking of selling my DST figures just so you could get him, lol.
