Baron Meinster 'Brides of Dracula' Megostyle Figure

[Mord]

All card art in the Hammer wave will be gleamed from posters. The only 'doodle' on the back is the Abominable Snowman. The other three images are from posters.

That is great news. This may very well be one of the best & desirable figure lines in the history of horror toys. Horror Hound Magazine recently had an issue featuring "toys never produced". It was mostly about toys that never got past the proto-type stage. There was also a section on "figures we'd like to see made". Hammer made the number one position. I wonder if they even know about Martin's Hammer treasures? Seven excellent figures down, & a lifetime to go.

DD will now be operating an 'It is what it is policy'. Unless of course you want to invest heavily in the company and share the painting,  planning and administration time.

If there's anything I can ever do, you have my e-mail address, Martin. Seriously, if you need proofreading, an opinion on art direction, etc, I'd be more than happy to lend a hand.

I get my Baron when Jarrod arrives. Gonna be a happy day. If I can keep my camera working, I'll snap some shots.

You'll be glad you did, buddy. Nothing wrong with starting a Hammer collection with series 2. The others might just start popping up on E-Bay (like the Vinnie Ps).

I hope the Hammer toys keep a low profile until Martin is finished with the series. Then the world can know about them. That way, we don't have to worry about a studio cease and desist party pooper. I know Hammer is already aware of Martin, but there are more nit picky companies that own the U.S. rights to various Hammer films, and you never know when some new department head will decide to go on a copyright crusade to show his cockadoodle is the loudest on the farm.

Also, I don't want a thousand other collectors trying to buy these, and have them sell out in minutes like an Alamo Draft House poster.

 That's always my fear. DD is like finding an obscure little toy store that very few know about. The high standard of quality is maintained by the very low runs these figures have. I really still can't believe I have the 7 Hammer figures released so far. I keep waiting for them to vanish as if it were all a dream. I'm definitely in for the long run on these.

Get 'em while you can. As you say, you never know when something like this will just cease to exist, for any number of reasons. It's even worth weathering annoying melodrama to attempt to make certain points which will improve the figures (and cards) and grant them a better chance for successful continued creation. I hope as many Hammer figures are made as possible before the inevitable end comes. In the years to come we'll be glad we were part of this when we have these figures in our collections to enjoy for the rest of our lives.

 I just hope I live long enough to get them all (Martin is younger than I am). I want the entire collection in my coffin with me when I'm buried. I need something to impress the other ghouls with down there.

I'm not sure I get the acronym. Everything's peaceful here, Martin. Just us kids happy with the toys you've made for us.

I believe it's Rolling On The Floor Laughing My Assignment Off. I just found that part of the post very amusing, nothing more.

I thought as long as something was low production or under a certain number that it was an artistic license type thing?!  Or could it be that even though DD is milking different cows it could get him in trouble because they may all be from the same farm?!

OK, I'd never seen that one before. Gotta polish up on my computer-speak, I guess.
