I heard from someone "in the know" on one of the facebook groups. They can't give details but they're really frustrated and angry about this situation. No, it doesn't look like they intentionally want to drib and drab them out one at a time. they're still dropping full waves of their other licenses.

ALSO, for those of you wanting those GITD Remco variants, I think they come out next week, and Super7 is having a buy 5 get the 6th figure free until Dec 31st. So you can scoop up all 4 GITDs and CWAU and get a free figure with them.

So I got my Creechie Walks Among Us figure today. I flipped the card over and discovered a couple things. Metaluna Mutant has not made a return to the card as a figure in the series. While Creechie Walks Among Us is included on the back of the card, Werewolf of London, Hunchback, Ardeth Bey, Ygor, and Fur Coat Frankie aren't featured on the back on the card. "Things that make you go hmmmmnnnnnn???" definitely applies. ??? ???

That was all explained in their last informative bulletin - along with the announcement of the shipping date for the Soapys.

Don't you keep up?  (I already pre-ordered my two Frankenstein Soapys.  One for painting.)

That is all very odd. I just imagined the exclusion of the Metaluna Mutant on the last cards was just a quality control oversight. And to not have the other figures on this new card indicates that whatever the issue is has been an issue for a while (at least long enough ago that it was there at the time they printed the cards). If you're able could you post a picture of the back of the card?

Why is Metaluna not included? Is it cuz he's Universal Sci Fi and not Horror?

I guess I ain't keeping up, because I have no idea what you're referencing. :-\ :-\

Is this sarcasm?  Is there some bulletin somewhere?  They do an awful job of getting news out.   I signed up for their email notices but I never get anything news related from them.

Just an unsubstantiated rumor.

Totally. That photo I think is from either 2018/2019 Toy Fair or SDCC. I think I saved the same photo. I WISH those soakies/soapies would be released.

Click on the picture.  They were to be called "Super Soapies".

One of the very few things that I was really interested in.

I do like the little boxed mystery figures and Keshi.   Not enough to by them blind - Got mine off eBay.
