So, for full clarity, can we put the color heads / hands on the B&W London figure??  If so, I might go for it.

Yes. Compatible.

Thanks.  I might go for it now. I'll look over the Transylvania heads to see how they might look on this body

My local toy store had Dracula and Invisible Man. And the Invisible Man comes with his heavy gloves he wears with his coat. And one of those hands is in a gripping position, but the figure doesn't come with anything that can be gripped the way this specific hand is made. So, I've got a suspicion that there is a forthcoming Invisible Man accessory set that will probably come with his hat, coat, and bag(the hand looks like it's specifically made to hold a bag's handle). I'm kind of assuming it'll  also come with a table and probably some lab equipment and the cardboard backdrop will probably be his room at the inn.
The boys around here call it "The Black Lagoon"; a paradise. Only they say nobody has ever come back to prove it.

I like the way you think.  He also comes with that big journal that is only seen in the inn at the film's first act as well. Hmmmnnn......

Still waiting for both Transylvania Dracula and Invisible Man from BBTS.  They appear to get them last.  They sent an email last week saying they were updating the date they should get them from Nov 22 to Jan 23, and only 2 more weeks left in Jan.  I really dont expect to have them until sometime in Feb.

Gamerunners (my local NECA HQ) just got their Dracula Coffin accessory sets in. Yay!


MonsterBaker666

Well, lo and behold...BBTS sent me emails that my Transylvania Dracula an Invisible Man figures should ship soon.  So with luck I should have them in a week or so.

BBTS is sooooooo sllllooooooow. But I get it. If there is no local supplier, why risk getting messed up boxes and driving all over the planet wasting time and gas. BBTS offers collector's grade packaging even if they are slower. Glad yours are on the way.

MonsterBaker666

Usually BBTS sends an email saying they have them, then a couple days later it hits my credit card, and a few days later I get the shipping notice  but it takes another day for it to actually be shipped.  So I figure 7-10 days before I get them

I got the email about the Invisible Man, but not the one about Dracula. Odd...I ordered both at the same time. Maybe the Dracula had more presales?

MonsterBaker666

Yeah, that's possible.  Even tho you ordered at the same time, Dracula likely got more preorders than The Invisible Man, so it's possible they just haven gotten to your Dracula preorder yet.

I have no problem waiting when I get absolutely mint packaging every time.

So do I. But I don't have to wait. My buddy calls me the second they arrive. He opens the case when I get there and I pull mine case fresh.  He's got my business for life. No more hunting at stores only to find what stock they do have has been mangled by morlocks. I just wait for my text or call and BAM!!!!! Oh yeah...just like Kool Aid Man, man.

If you live in Ohio (specifically the Dayton area), I can send you his way.
