I feel your pain and I'm just happy that I decided only to go for the Remco style releases out of all of these Universal offerings, it's really helped on space and my wallet (although it does look like these Burger King ones will hold the most future value)!

I finally got around to checking the tracking info for the Loot Crate NECA Creature. Good news, it shows it was delivered on February 15!

Bad news, it was delivered to a city an hour from where I live!

Yes, my shipping address is correct on my order. Somehow it got delivered to some random address. Tracking doesn't show what the address is, just the city. Fortunately only 60,000 people live in that city so I should just be able to find it after knocking door to door for the next 11 years.

I have zero positive experiences with Loot Crate. Ever.

Update on this. After a few back and forths with Loot Crate I have learned that they way oversold the Creature crate so they are actually having to do a second production run that should start shipping out to the remaining people who ordered one but didn't get one sometime in April. They said they have included me in that list so I should end up actually getting one. Hopefully. It looks like there will end up being A LOT more Creatures out there than Frankenstein or Dracula.

I finally got charged for the next Loot crate but there's still no mention of it on their website. Has anyone heard confirmation if this will in fact be the Wolfman figure?

Oh crap, so I probably missed out on the Wolfman Loot crate? I cancelled my last subscription because I didn't want whatever they were apparently going to send out between Creature and Wolfman (because they never mentioned the Wolfman in a crate). I think there will be VERY low subscription numbers for Wolfman because the crate is now closed, right?

I just emailed Loot Crate support as well.  I asked if the Wolfman is included in the current listing which ends on 03/15, or if it will have a specific listing on the next crate.

I've checked almost daily since the Creature listing went down, and have never seen the Wolfman, just the current generic listing.  I'm only interested in the Wolfman, not generic random stuff.

I emailed Loot Crate customer service a couple weeks ago and the representative said "The Wolfman will be included in the next crate (March)".

Someone does have the first three Loot Crate figures listed on ebay for $595 altogether. Steep, but it's about what it would cost to get all three based on what they seem to be going for now.

I heard back from Loot Crate. They provided me this link to show that the March Loot Crate item is the Wolfman:

Same response I just got - Glad we asked!

Just put my order in - code "KFMS" still works for 30% off!

Thanks for the message, fearliath. That's interesting and annoying about the Creature, but as long as I eventually get him, I'm good w it.

So, the Wolf Man: I paid for the Crate that closed I think on 15 Feb. Am I reading correctly that that Crate does NOT have the Wolf Man, and that he's in the one that closes 15 March? I think I've gotten something mixed up. Thanks again!

According to the table, Wolfman is open January 16th - March 15th (since they're bi-monthly subscriptions), so you should be good then.

NECA is answering questions on their instagram and they posted this today...Let the speculation begin!!!

It could be Cushing...
I was hoping for a Bela White Zombie, but the buttons aren't right.

Upon closer examination, I am going with it being an unpainted Lee Dracula.
