Anyone heard any word on when this one is expected?



No idea yet. I'm guessing we'll get some news on it if NECA does another 31 nights of Fright reveals for October.

Someone on Reddit has already gotten the BK Frank.

I'm going to imagine BK Frank is going to be a good bit scarcer that. The Remco one.  I'm surprised he opened it.

Bag is resealable. Like a ziplock.

I was told "Fall" for the Monster from Bride, and Fall started this week, so hopefully soon.

I got my ship notice from Lootcrate for the Frankenstein box, which is very exciting. Should be here on the 3rd.

Surprised that the B&W Creature is hitting shelves already, since I haven't even seen it online for preorder yet. Has anyone else seen where to preorder it?

I suspect it was meant to be a first-to-market exclusive for Target's Fall Geek Out campaign, but I didn't see it in any of the promo material, not that the marketing Target puts forth is worth a damn.

I have not see it solicited for sale, even at wholesale.

I can second Shannon's information here. My buddy's shop gets stuff directly from NECA. He has had no order information for Creechie b/w, ultimate My Bloody Valentine Miner, nor Frankenstein in Chair. He was informed that from October to the end of December, he is going to be hit hard with multiple order drops though.

I'm waiting for that Frank with the chair.  Must have.

I got a Fall Geek-Out at Target stores email from Neca today.  It show a great posed shot of the b/w Creature, and other figs.  Noted these will be limited quantities, starting this weekend...the hunt is on!

A Heads Up for ordering Creature at Target.
From the Neca email it takes you to Target page for their Collectors Spot site.  Scroll a little down page to their This Weeks Drop #006 Neca Reel Toys, movie & figures.

Click on this image (shows Creature, other figs.) and a side panel page slides in on top of page.  Here you can order from an image of Creature, plus other 3 figs.  It says Creature is not available in stores (?)
I went ahead and ordered Creature B/W to be sure to get one.  Not sure if it is only for Target, or how limited these will be.

The other figs are: Bloody Valentine, Turtles human, and The Thing, McCreedy.

Good Luck!

I just ordered a Creature from Target also. We will see what happens. I ordered a B&W Bride from Best Buy on the 20th of Sept. To be picked up in their Store on the 28th of Sept. Well guess what I received an e-mail on the 27th of Sept. Say were sorry the Item you orderd is out of stock. What a fool I am thinking, oh they have stock lol. What gives with these companies listing items as in stock them pulling the rug out from under you feet. Im usually a laid back guy, but I sent a scathing you Suck e-mail to Best Buy. I know they won't care. I was trying to save a bit on Shipping.   They waited a whole week to tell me this 😕. So I have one that has Shipped from a real toy store on line. I know it's just a toy but Im fed up with these companies pulling this crap. So we will see if Creature actually ships.
