I wish they would make Psycho with the same artist doing the cards. Norman as himself, Norman as Mother, Mrs. Bates corpse, re-release the Alfred Hitchcock with a Psycho logo and there you have it.

Add a nude Marion Crane with shower curtain, and I'm in.

Finished the Super 7 photo album, adding the checklist that fearliath compiled.

I am in need of scans of the Keshi stickers. I have both Creatures, Invisible Man,  Frankenstein and Mole People, but need the other 7. Anybody have any of those and a scanner?

Lol, you know it's coming. Only a matter of time. I ordered my wave 2, but no tracking number yet. It doesn't really bother me that they probably wont be here by Halloween. As far as marketing goes, however: they missed the boat.

I agree that these should have been available sooner in the month. Mine have shipped and should barely make it by Halloween.

How many figure lines could get away with doing a bathroom playset?

S7 is slipping. I ordered the last 3 figures I needed to complete my UM on Wednesday, plus an extra Maria.  They shipped 2 at a time but on the same day instead of waiting just a little while and putting all 4 in the same box. The delivery date set for both was today. The first box out, as of 2:30 am, is now saying "arriving late" while the second box has cleared the N. Hou. Dist. Center and is on the way to my local PO for delivery today.

That makes sense, doesn't it.

Have you seen their ebay store? They charge nearly as much for shipping on every item as they do for the item itself.  That seems very off putting.

Yet they stock many items for such a short time, you cannot wait and compile one large order to save on shipping.  You are compelled to order items singly and pay multiple shipping charges.

It makes buying the few items I like a much less attractive proposition.

Surprise! They Live figures available on October 28th! So if you want them and just bought UM Wave 2, guess you gotta go back and pay another round of shipping. Thanks, Super7!

They cancelled the Roddy Piper character due to licensing issues.

Remember the Bark At The Moon Ozzy Osbourne Werewolf? Cancelled due to licensing issues per a BBTS email cancellation email I received a little while ago.  Bummer, I really wanted one.

And, I finally got my preorder of Robocop from BBTS in stock at the original preorder price of $14.99. I was sad that they showed 6 figures and only released 3, but glad that Emil the mutant version got released.

Got my Phantom, Invisible Man and Revenge of the Creature today. Luckily it was .50 cents more for 2 day shipping. They are wonderful and fun and my complaints are lessened by now having them in hand.

Still can't get pictures to post on here but if you look me up on Instagram ((*at*)Subatomic_Matt) you can spot 'em in a little impromptu setup on my monster dresser.

"Lethal Weapon 2" comes to mind. 😆

I don't buy much Super 7 product. I bought the SDCC sodas from ebay. I bought the puzzle and glasses at the same time from them. I bought the reaction figures. Besides Universal Monsters, none of their other products interest me. Actually, some of their Uni product doesn't even interest me honestly. Given my limited interest, I was unfamiliar with some of the shipping owes, product cancellations, or other issues associated with them. I suppose if these issues hit the Reaction Universal Monsters line, maybe I would be a little more annoyed.  I am ok with what I've gotten and how it's been delivered at this point. Their ebay store shipping prices aren't gonna have anyone singing songs about them though. $20+ on shipping for one of those "Paper People" things is insane.

Maybe, Nightmare on Elm St. You could have a bathtub with the glove coming out.
