    I think I was 8-11 when I first saw The Puppet Master, always loved them. Worked at Spencers in the 90s and picked up all of the first series, still have them on card stashed away along with a larger boxed version of Blade.
    Great vid.

    I just got the three box sets of neca puppet master figures for 7$ each set from Target. Blade & Torch, Tunneler and Pinhead, Six Shooter and Jester. They’re amazing and are a great addition to my collection

    I used to have a figure of torch, jester and tunneler back when i was in middle school, i remember bringing torch to school with me for some reason and one of my classmates swiped him from me and i wound up getting it back by giving the guy a bear hug until he finally dropped it and i was able to snatch it up off the floor.
    The films were pretty good but i was always more of a fan of the child's play/chucky films, anyway good work with this video dude!

    Great documentary. It’s a shame many of the toys never got produced. But with the Tiny Terrors finally coming out, maybe there is hope for the release of other figures.

  • @phlebiax5592

    Puppet Master. It rings a bell. Probably i was 10 years old or maybe younger. I saw it sometime on TV. And i liked it, never knew there were so many movies. And as of the toys, i didn't have any.
    When i was 6 or 7 i also watch the first Hellraiser movie. So yeah, i've grown up with adult horror movies as a child. Something that was normal back in time.
    A few days ago i watched Ghoulies part 1. Maybe this evening i will watch part 2. Classics from the 80's :D

    Grew up watching the Puppet Master movies on VHS (before I was legally allowed to here in the UK) and bought all the red-carded re-releases of the original Puppet Master figures... Which I still have to this day, along with a replica Blade, a 12" Decapitron and the old Spencer's Gift Blade statue AND a ton of the comics that came out around the same time. And despite owning all those I still bought the Neca releases and will continue to do so!

I'm also getting a batch of their Tiny Terrors and NECA toys. I unboxed 3 of the Tiny Terrors before but didn't get the ones I wanted.

    I saw the first one when I was in Middle School... would walk up to Blockbuster with friends and rent horror flicks or scifi each week. Was hooked on Full Moon stuff from the start. Bought as many as I could of these back in the day when the shop in the mall would put them on sale... sadly that didn't include the first wave. Got most of the Retro line tho, and the big versions of Decapatron and The Pimp from Blood Dolls. (Seriously underrated flick)
    Just bought a Totem off eBay... and the NECA Tunneler & Pinhead. Just got the urge to get back into these last year.

I eventually got my favorite puppet Torch some time later. So glad Neca revisted these and did a stellar job on the first four. Can't wait to get Six Shooter and Jester.
