Hey Gang!
Just got back from the San Diego Comic Con last weekend and do I have news for you! Majestic Studios has licensed the DS property from Dan Curtis productions, and will be releasing new 12 inch DS Action figures in the fall 2005! Follow the link below for a peak at the prototype figures on display at the Majestic table at the Con. This is hot news that has not even been announced by the Festival yet!!! Here is the story on the figures from what I was told direct from Majestic. There will be possibly be 4 initial figures released in fall 2005. Barnabas, Quentin, Angelique and Dr Hoffman. Barnabas and Quentin are already in prototype stage, and you can see them at the the link below. Barnabas comes in 2 versions. In his 1795 and present time outfit. There will be 3 changeable heads for Barnabas, including one with fangs, and the "Old Barnabas" from 1967. Quentin comes in his 1897 outfit, and will have an interchangeable Werewolf head! If these figures sell, Majestic wants fan input on what characters they should do in the future. I suggested Nicholas Blair, but there is plenty of time for everyone to make their favorites known. They said are even considering a coffin to go with the Barnabas figure. But it will not come with the figure as they need to keep the costs down on the figures. The figures will retail for $40.00, and be sold at chains like Tower Records and Suncoast Motion Picture stores. These figures are still new, and plans can change. I urge all fans to write in your support for Majestic Studios. Let them know we WANT THESE FIGURES!!! I will post their contact information in a separate message below.
Here is the link with photos of the prototype figures from the convention last weekend!
ENJOY!
