NEW Barnabas Collin Action Figure - 8" Mego-Style

[PennyDreadful]

Wow, very cool! 

However...

Werewolf Chris Jennings is an SDCC exclusive ONLY?!  Dude!  They are killing teh lien!!    Sorry, had to say it.  Hopefully Spectre will hang onto some to sell online afterward though.

I say it's long overdue that Julia got her own action figure

I am definitely hoping for a Julia doll.  Of course, what I'm really hoping for are two Julia dolls -- one based on the character's pre-1795 look and one based on her post-1795 look.  Perfect for reenacting the episode in which Julia goes from drab to fab.

Well, you know Dan Curtis forced Grayson to wear that wig!

Perhaps, if they do a Julia figure, it will have interchangeable heads. But if not, and if it only comes with the short '68/'69 style hair, fear not. There must be football uniforms out there for the Ken doll, so just buy one, remove the faceguard and the chin strap from the helmet, and paint it to look the color of Julia's '67 wig - and voila - it should be a perfect likeness.

Ouch, MB!

That was harsh MB, lol.

Please - how often has Julia's '67 hair style been described as a football helmet? One needn't look any farther than this forum. And even by the Graysonphiles themselves.    I simply provided an easy way to achieve the classically described '67 Julia look should it not be provided by Spectre Toys.

As PennyDreadful stated the Chris Jennings is a SDCC exclusive. As we know the limited edition is 500 and this item will only be available at the EntertainmentEarth booth. I have been informed that any remaining Jennings figures will be returned to Spectre.
This is from an entertainmentearth email sent to me today:

"Thank you for your response.  I have received expanded information from our purchasing dept.  The item is a Spectre exclusive.  They are giving it to us to offer for them at the SDCC, however it is not an official piece of EE inventory.  When the SDCC is over, Spectre will be taking the item back with them, if there are any leftovers.  They did not offer the item to us to sell on our website, if any units are leftover.  It is only being offered in conjunction with EE at the SDCC itself.  Any arrangements that Spectre is making to release any leftovers after the SDCC have not been shared with us.  So, sorry for the confusion about the item being at the EE SDCC booth, it will be there, but (as of this moment) Spectre intends on taking this item home with them if necessary."

Hopefully some will be made available to us at the Fest but I doubt it especially if the Ebay sellers get greedy there.

EE does have the Barnabas and Angeligue for sale at its website.

Series Two is coming in November!

My bets are Quentin and Josette, at the very least.  I am hoping that there will be more than just two in the next wave.

Upcoming DS figures revealed in the DS Journal's interview with Rick Phares!  All great choices for toys IMO!

Can't wait til I see the pictures for those upcoming figures!

[ClaudeNorth]

YES! A Dr. Julia Hoffman doll!

[Mysterious Benefactor]

Start scouting for those football uniforms now. 

[Mysterious Benefactor]

Actually, anyone who's in the mood to prepare doesn't even have to search for a whole football outfit because just look at what I've come across: Ken doll hat vintage repro Touch Down football helmet!! It's only $8.99 AND you don't even have to remove a faceguard or a chin strap. It's completely suitable for painting as is. You couldn't possibly ask for more! 

All you need to do now is search for the best paint to match '67 Julia's hair color, and as soon as the Julia figure is released, you'll be good to go. 

[Cousin_Barnabas]

I can't wait to see these new figures!  In fact, I want them NOW!
