    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    Agreed! I like the Monster Force version, but I still crave a truly fiendish, Stoker-based figure of Dracula. I love the novel, and have long wanted to see more accurate depictions.

    Figura Obscura

    After seeing that tease, I'll REALLY be shocked if it isn't Jersey Devil. I'll be checking in tomorrow morning to see what they unveil.

    Well, for Colan Dracula, he absolutely MUST have his pencil 'stache. If they wanna throw in extra heads with Vlad the Impaler style-'stache, as well as his 80s goatee, I won't complain, but he must AT LEAST have his pencil thin facial hair in closed and fangs-out open mouthed varieties!

    Boss Fight Studios 1/12 and EPIC HACKS

    Welp...just preordered all three. The price is steep...but it's comic accurate Hellboy figures. I'll have to save up some $ to cover these by the time they hit. At least they are a ways out.

    Soooo...how 'bout that Gene Colan Dracula, eh? The stats on that guy! He's suffered a bit of a slump since his heyday, but I'd put him up against any of these younger, rookie vampires any day! He's the GOAT, for sure, with his wicked claws and pencil-'stache! (did I do that right?)

    One A Day 2.0: Day #164 - Maelstrom, Helio, Gronk and Phobius

    Considering my love for the Creature From the Black Lagoon, it's no surprise I'd be down for his 616 counterpart! An IMMEDIATE purchase for me! Classic Legion of Monsters #1 version is preferred (and while you're at it, Hasbro, give me Colan Dracula and classic Frankenstein Monster featured on...

    Realms of the Blacktide Pirate Figures

    I'd buy those in a heartbeat. While I'm a white dude, I live in Texas where Mexican culture is a HUGE part of the overall culture. I was introduced to Dia De Los Muertos as a teen by a friend's mom, when I asked her about the cool little skeleton dudes she had on display (previously, I'd seen...

    Realms of the Blacktide Pirate Figures

    These figures clearly don't have sheaths. Those are guitar cases, for sure!

    G.I. Joe Classified Series

    Sgt. Slaughter, like most wrasslin' personalities of his original era, seemed like a living cartoon to begin with. Him joining the Joe team seemed like an obvious fit, and he kept me watching GI Joe for a lot longer than I would have otherwise (by the time he joined the Joes in '85, I was in...

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    I wonder if Hasbro went with the more modern look because it is closer to his movie appearance? Maybe that is the logic, thinking it would entice those that aren't really familiar with his comic costumes? I LIKE this costume, and if I didn't already have him in this look I might be tempted...

    X-Men Wishlist - Just For Fun!

    THIS! I know lots of folks like the translucent look for Iceman, but to me a classic look for him should have a frosty appearance. Iceman is one that we keep getting SO close, but as yet they haven't nailed his truly iconic look.

    Four Horsemen Studios Mythic Legions

    They easily could do a Dracula as the novel described him, with both old and young heads to swap out, and still have monstrous elements. There are a ton of Drac figures out there, but none have really gone for how he is described in Stoker's novel. Most people tend to think of Legosi or Lee (or...

    Harvinger Studios, Savage Crucible

    I'm still planning to paint some drawers on the BF Sonja. The idea of her running around commando while riding horses and fighting snake people is just too much for me!

    Marvel Legends Maximum Series

    I said this on another thread, but will repeat here: the only Deadpool figure I have in my collection is the Juggernaut wave one, which has the exact same costume as this one. That figure is a bit dated, but it still looks decent on the shelf. Doop isn't a character I really need in my...

    Frazetta Universe (Frazetta Girls)

    Yeah, I would have loved this line when I was a kid, but with all the cool, ultra-detailed and articulated Conan offerings these days, I'm not tempted in the least. What I AM tempted by is that Battle of the Blackstone Conan that Heroic Signatures is doing. Watched Robo's preview video today...

    General Marvel Legends

    Kinda glad....the only DP figure I have is the Juggernaut wave one. Being the same costume reduces the temptation to get this one.

    One A Day 2.0: Day #164 - Maelstrom, Helio, Gronk and Phobius

    Not really familiar with Dr. Nemesis. I'd have to pass.

    General Marvel Legends

    My browser at work won't let me see the IGN pictures, but from what is being described isn't this the same look the Juggernaut wave DP had?

    Harvinger Studios, Savage Crucible

    Yeah, I don't think Frazetta ever did a painting of Sonja. Guess we'll have to wait until someone does a compatible line of Boris Vallejo figures....or until Savage Crucible decides to do their take on her.

    Big Bad Workshop General

    I don't think they've announced any kind of date. This stuff tends to take a while, so I'd say they are at least a year or so out...maybe longer. I'm DEFINITELY going to get the Cheerleader for my F13 displays, and a priest to pit against some of my more demonic characters. I might grab some...

    Harvinger Studios, Savage Crucible

    I have both the LooseCollector and Boss Fight Red Sonja figures. The overall sculpt on LooseCollector is nice, but the chest is ridiculously big, and she can't remain standing for shit. The BFS Sonja is really nice, though VERY fidgety (I'm very happy I found her on sale at my LCS, as I'd be...

    Realms of the Blacktide Pirate Figures

    I don't really know much about pirates outside of pop culture....not a historical era or subject I'm that interested in. What would be a historically accurate sword for a pirate? I'm fairly certain it wouldn't be these Liefeld-esque monstrosities we see here.

    I'm hoping for a novel accurate Dracula.

    Marvel Legends Preorders - When and Where

    Opening shot- Laurie Strode sits in her living room. In front of her, on a coffee table, sits a pile of mail. Laurie opens an envelope, and sees it's her credit card bill. As her eyes slowly peruse the bill, she gets to a line marked "Hasbro Pulse". She sees the total, her eyes become wide with...
