    They did the Santa figures and they’ve done a bunch of 4 inch stuff, Longbox hero’s and eagle force. They’re indie but I think they have a big partnership with bbts because the holiday stuff was done kickstarter style via bbts

    So happy you’re reviewing these figures, I think the next ones will impress you a bit more with the paints and articulation. I was really happy when they changed the torso articulation from the ab crunch to the torso cuts. The founder is a big GI Joe fan hence the similarities, but man I was sadden by the drop down hips.

    I almost ordered the forgotten king but then i would need to buy a pyramid dio for him with a sphinx and some egyptian gods and just didnt want to make a whole new shelf for him ,because thats how i think when i buy toys . If i did get him i probably would put the head on another body with some armor because the suit makes no sense to me .

    The evil Egyptian theme and classic horror mixed with modern day, is interesting. Some of the details look fantastic.
    I agree with Anthony, that they should've had a dhmbell joint in the top of the neck/base of the skull. I'd also dothch the useless drop down hips.
    I was thinking they'd be better if the waist coats/vests were sculpted to the torso and diaper, with just the coat as an overlay.
    The faces don't seem to use face print tech but still look good.
    Overall the look pretty damn good to me. The price is an issue for me, but for those that can afford them they look like a fun line. Thet do come with a shedload of stuff.

    I hope they work out some distribution in Asia because I love that Dracula. Need a vampire in my 1/12 collection, and the only thing I've found is Jada's Dracula, which looks great but the aftermarket price is ~$50 where I live. The articulation here blows but the design really appeals to me, so if the producers will check these comments for R&D, then release these in Asia and I'd seriously consider picking them up; some of the goons look neat too.

    Not to discredit the company, but for me, they have that Hasbro stench to them that makes them look like higher effort ML, like Anthony said.
    When I buy collectibles, I don't want them to look like my most despised toy line (ML).
    Mcfarlane, NECA, Jada, SHF, and lots of indie companies have a signature look to them that makes them feel like they're from a specific line. These unfortunately don't

      There's nothing wrong with a higher end product that's similar to Hasbro imo. They are still much better but can be mixed with existing figures. There's nothing wrong with taking the Hasbro style and fixing it.
