NECA HAS OBTAINED UNIVERSAL MONSTERS!!!!

Wish I could get an AHI Creature for that! 

AHI Creech is one of the main reasons I don't  collect the creature.   He was $$$ 20+ years ago.  It's even worse now.

A couple zeros worse!

Holy crap! I just look at some completed prices and WTH?!?! Is it because these flew under the radar? Why are they going for so much. I love mine but honestly at these prices I might just sell.

Yeah, I think a lot of it is that not as many people heard about the Frankenstein figure in time to get it. I saw a Frankenstein and Dracula sold together for $560. Seems like the price for Dracula is dropping from what I've seen.

Box art for LAM sited on ebay. China. So it's getting closer to making it stateside.

I hope they mean Professor Burke in disguise.

If anyone needs a Crypt Club Dracula there's a badly titled one on eBay under Dracaul with no bids for $60.

So, just got a shipping notice for one of my Loot Crate Creatures - the odd thing being that this one has a China Post tracking number, and is moving through China, whereas my previous Frank and Drac orders shipped from Loot Crate within the states.

I wonder if there's some new logistic hiccup that explains this and also why the Wolfman hasn't been listed yet.

I'm surprised the tracking is moving at all, as Chinese New Year usually grinds everything to a halt.

Very cool!
Makes me wonder why they couldn't use an original Nosferatu poster for the figure, but they can use the LAM poster for this. Neither are Universal.  Did we ever figure that out?

Exactly.   The Nosferatu box art may be the worst they've ever done.    Figure isn't very good either compared to others. extremely disappointing and sticks out amongst the others.   Super 7s is weird looking also.   Don't know why they have such a hard time capturing his sinister look.

I couldn't disagree more. The Nosferatu figure is a work of art in my eyes. The box art is painted by a member here (unless he dropped out or I am mistaken). Daniel Horne. He's won awards for his monster art. Opinions and taste vary, but I think you may be in the minority on this one, Doc. I do agree with yuo about Super7 not being to my liking. I am not really a fan of their figures. I just like their card art,lol.

Daniel Horne.

Never been a member that I know of. Love his art, though! All those great Classic Monsters of the Movies covers!

OK, maybe the Clubhouse or Classic Horror Film Board then. I agree his art is stellar though.

[Anton Phibes]

The fact they didn't use a movie poster got me thinking.....had I ever even seen an actual movie poster for this flick,lol? So I went to google. Primarily because Doc raised brought it up....why wouldn't they use the poster?

1. The movie posters are in German. I suppose there could be a work around and still use the art perhaps?
2. The art....it doesn't exactly sell the flick, or an action figure. In MY OPINION.

Here are the posters I found. Are there better ones? I like Horne's art and the figure regardless.

I love Albin Grau's set, costume and poster designs for "Nosferatu". That wonderful German Expressionist style! This close-up is one of my favorites.

That is good! That would've been a nice box, if they were permitted to use it.
