Can we get any clues on the DD/Pallbearer Press release on Feb. 17?  I need to determine if my wife gets Valentine's Day roses or not.  Thanks!

Ray Tango : Oh crap, it's Conan.

Gabriel Cash : What?

Ray Tango : It's Conan.

Gabriel Cash : We're gonna get F.U.B.A.R now.

Ray Tango : What the hell is F.U.B.A.R?

Gabriel Cash : You'll see.

Face : Real bad ass "COPS". You don't look so tough now, do you?

Maniac Cop...redux??? Hmmmm...

My Mossman arrived today and is absolutely stunning to see in hand. I've been very impressed with this Creepshow wave, from the figures to the box art and they really look stunning all together on display.

The Maniac Cop release was also an amazing looking release today so I'm looking forward to having that in hand also. Still a little way off until the next DD release for next month but I'm happy for any hints once the time is right  ;)

I didn't pick up Maniac Cop the first time around, so I was happy to see his "re-appearance" in different packaging.  Not sure if there are any distinguishable changes from the first figure, but he looks really cool, especially presented with the new box art.  Great job again, Martin and crew!

It looks to me like the head has been resculpted and he has a new wardrobe. It's one sweet looking figure and box and like you I missed this the first time around so it's great to get a second chance at it.

Besides Kharis, I'd love to see a DRACULA VS. FRANKENSTEIN two pack of Dracula and the Monster. The film is my number one guilty pleasure and I think it would be an AWESOME two pack!

Unfortunately I had to stop purchasing DD figures because the Post Office finally beat me into submission with constantly damaged packaging. I don't blame Martin at all, but if I can't have mint packaging, I can't collect the figures. I will occasionally make an exception, like for the figures I just mentioned. It's a shame though. Really hated passing on Jordy.

Head sculpt is the same, but even better paints
Newer Police jacket
Gun w/holster and baton
S-type body

These details make a much better figure than the original

Any news on next months offerings? Also is it a Monday drop or later for March?

Always happy to hear any news  :D

Ian and I didn't get to go to NYC Toy Fair this past week, so naturally, the next best thing is to get some clues about next month's DD releases!  Anybody out there that can help us out?

I am sure Martin is up to his neck in the business. He may not have time for hints this time. Might have to just wait for the newsletter. If this coronavirus19 stuff keeps going on, it will eventually bottle neck supply chains for consumers, and cause headaches. Toys included.  There's also a lot of stuff that goes on behind the scenes. Including some that aren't exactly thrilling. Like dealing with stuff lost in customs.  It's a wonder he has time for food and sleep given he's a small customizer. Hang tight. Good things come to those who wait.... 8)

All good points Anton and I hadn't thought about all that's going on at the moment in China effecting all of the world in different ways. I'm always happy to wait for these figures :D

Here are some hints. Monday is the day. March 2. 

1. One is older, though her figure is quite new. She needed something borrowed, until she turned quite blue. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride. Oak with padlocks...and not cedar...were required for her ride.

2. The second is newer, familiar yet oft forgotten. Bested by the General, who's not a fan, he thinks he's rotten. Knife and teeth, and claws of gore. A tale of wonder, a beast of yore. It's a good thing the feline's train ride was not disturbed nor foiled...or poor Amanda's childhood would be marred with terror and quite spoiled. 

If you're fans....these are easy.
