NEW Barnabas Collin Action Figure - 8" Mego-Style

[jimbo]

I agree MB. I am all for an open competitive marketplace but this seller is attempting to take full advantage of DS fans imo. I doubt this seller would accept an offer of $20.00 or so.

Chris Jennings was my favorite actor on the show!   

Yeah, he's the one who played Don Briscoe in most of the episodes, wasn't he?

[Mysterious Benefactor]

No, that was actor Tim Shaw.  

But hey, Spectre is making these great figures available, so I suppose we can look the other way once or twice when they make a mistake - as, invariably, every piece of merchandise related to DS seems to do in some way or another. And, unlike other DS merchandise (yes, I'm speaking about you, PomPress books), it's not like people who should definitely know better are putting together the copy. If Spectre begins to make repeated errors, well, then it will certainly be time to question who's handling their research and just how competent they actually are...

Like the back of the NODS VHS box that reads, "In the 19th century a woman named Lara Parker was hanged as a witch..." or the HODS write-up in one of the VideoHound guides that referred to Barnabas as a 375-year-old vampire (imagine Barnabas dressed like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1550%E2%80%931600_in_fashion#Style_gallery_1580s.E2.80.931590s) and mentioned Victoria Winters either as one of the characters in the film or as one of the actresses in the film (I forget which).

I am pretty stoked for the Julia Hoffman figure! She can hang out with my Charmed action figures and maybe they can give her some fashion advice!  HA!  BTW....thanks for the link.  I love Wikipedia however I had to pry myself away for a while as it can be so addicting. I am gonna have to take a day and read up on the fashion of that period and others!

OMG the werewolf doll, er, action figure (LOL!) is awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I want one like yesterday!!!!  Woo hoo!!!!  LOL!

I've preordered all three figures and am so excited, they look great!
Am already speculating on the second wave of figures. Quentin is a given, and probably either Julia or Josette.
I'd LOVE a Magda doll!

quentincollins:

The next wave of figures have been announced, and prototypes will be revealed at SDCC (San Deigo Comic Con).  They are:

Quentin Collins
Josette DuPres
Dr. Julia Hoffman
Willie Loomis
Adam

I think Magda would be great for a future wave of figures.  There are so many characters they could do - Elizabeth, Roger, Carolyn, David, Victoria, Maggie, Prof. Stokes.  I'd also like to see Nicholas Blair, Laura Collins, Sarah Collins and Cyrus Longworth with alternate John Yaeger head and Count Petofi.  There are dozens of DS characters they could make.

I would kill to have a Petofi figure! And if there's going to be an Aristede figure, then Petofi would have to come equipped with an automatically slapping arm so that he can slap the Aristede figure around. 

[PennyDreadful]

 Yes, that must be his "action feature!" LOL!  And he should have a detachable hand of course.

The next wave of figures have been announced, and prototypes will be revealed at SDCC (San Deigo Comic Con).  They are:

Quentin Collins
Josette DuPres
Dr. Julia Hoffman
Willie Loomis
Adam

Wow the second wave will be a lot bigger! I'm going to need to make some room! I wonder if they'll do varients, such as 1840 Julia,  modern Qunein, 1897 Quentin, 1975 Victoria,etc.
And will they make playsets? Collinwood and the Old House are a must, of course.

The Barnabas figure looks great, but I want to see a closer look at the Angelique doll's face before I pre-order. It's hard to tell if it looks like her or not. Also, it looks like she has that molded plastic hair. I would prefer rooted hair! LOL
