NECA HAS OBTAINED UNIVERSAL MONSTERS!!!!

[Anton Phibes]

Hope not!  They release Nosferatu wide, surely the Monster from Bride rates such a release too.

I would think so too. My buddy's shop gets his stuff fast, and he keeps me in the loop. I asked him point blank about getting them, and he said: Same routine as the Monsterizer. Store Exclusive. I dunno if anyone (possibly including NECA themselves) can answer the question accurately right now.

Just ordered The Bride of Frankenstein set. $60 was better than I expected.

Got mine! Not too much of a bad price but I wish I was able to afford a 2nd to keep in the box.

[Monsters For Sale]

Got mine, too.

I would have "liked" fearliath's post, but I am still unable to do that.  (I got his post before NECA sent me the email that Frank was available for pre-order.)

I sadly can't order it right now...someone got my credit card and tried charging $600 in tools with it (The bank caught it and locked the card immediately), so I have to wait for a new card to come.  Hopefully it will be in tomorrow.  Not sure how they got my card, but they also hacked my Facebook account, were able to get into my Netflix account and change the email for it, and tried getting into my email account.  So I've been spending the last few days changing all my logins and passwords for everything I can think of.

That's awful.

We need a "dislike" button.  (It could be anonymous so as not to ruffle feathers.)

In comments on their fb ad for the set, fb claims this is a "first-to-market" webstore offering, which means it should be available at wholesale to all accounts at some point. Planned shipping is June '24.

On this note - a word of caution. A LOT of people right now are getting significant numbers of accounts hacked at the same time including personal bank accounts. I do mean A LOT!. Be very careful right now to check your accounts for anything even moderately suspicious (like for example a very small transfer into your account and then back out again). I have never seen anything like what is going on right now. Financial institutions and law enforcement are very aware of it but they are not publicizing it for whatever reason.

They don't want everyone to take their money out and hide it in their mattresses.

I was very shocked when I kept getting messages saying someone was trying to get into my email account.  And then I saw the somehow got into my facebook account and changed the passwords.  Luckily I rarely use it and haven't added any personal info there - maybe my nick name and birthdate.  And I have no idea how they got into my Netflix as that password is a jumble of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols.  But I tried getting in, and Netflix said they couldn't find my email address.  Luckily that one was easy to fix.  And then I started getting messages saying someone was trying to access my Linkedin account, and when I was trying to get in to change my password, I got a message saying the password was changed, so they got in and immediately changed it!  Again, I never used it - probably again my nick name and date of birth - nothing else as I haven't used it in about 12 years.  Weird thing with Facebook - they say if you suspect you were hacked, they send a code to your email address - But I never get those email codes.  So I need to find a phone number to call about it. 

Oh, and they tried getting into my Amazon account.  I was able to change my email acct and password for that. 

something for fellow members to think of - In Amazon they keep in a "wallet" all your credit cards, so if anyone hacks your account, they can at the very least order stuff on those credit cards, and maybe even steal those card numbers.  So I deleted all the saved cards, and whenever I order using amazon, I'll add a card, then delete it after I place the order.  Same thing with other online places. 

I IS scary that someone can get your info.

I emailed Loot Crate the other day to ask when the Wolf Man figure will be released and customer service said "The Wolfman will be included in the next crate (March)." So I believe that's the next one after Creature (I had asked if it was the next one, so they could mean the next one after that)...I get a little confused by how they count the crates, the tracking for my Creature was listed under December. In any event, it should be the next or (small chance they mean the one after that).

I ordered the Frankenstein chair set on the off chance their online outlet proves the only way to get it. Darn near $80 after shipping and tax. I won't be ordering anymore. If I can't get it from my buddy's shop moving forward: I will just skip the entry altogether.

[Lazarus]

Honestly, I was expecting it to be $80 to begin with because of the chair.

The $80 pay out wouldnt be such a groin kick except for one thing: I know that wretched paper hang tag is going to be mangled, if not the box altogether.  Neca packs poorly.
