Gotta be Marley. I skipped Red Death but the holiday-ish themed ones have been great so far. This is a very cool line.
Yeah seems to be pointing right at Marley. I’ve been hoping they would do A Christmas Carol! If they don’t go crazy and give us everything at once, this could be the Christmas theme for the next 5 or 6 years.
-Jacob Marley
-Ghosts of Christmas past, present, and yet to come
-Scrooge (maybe street wear and PJs?)
-maybe even Bob Cratchet and Tiny Tim?
I can’t really think of a current body that would work for Marley so I wonder if we’ll be getting a new buck or if there will be cloth overlays over a zombie body? The unique outfits needed for Scrooge and Marley is partly why I thought they were unlikely for a while. Present would probably be on an ogre body and Yet To Come could be similar to the Red Death. Past would probably need a new smaller body since the dwarfs are all armored.
Marley seems like the most likely suspect, for sure. Jacob, not Bob. 😜 Would be great if he can float somehow too- either a flight stand or super thick, durable chains (almost no chance of the latter, but ever since the NWH Ock was unveiled, my mind goes racing; if there's any other company that can do it, it would be 4H). Would be fun if he came with a little storybook like Red Death did, even if it's just Marley's chapter.
I do love the idea of making the next few holiday exclusives the Christmas Carol ghosts. I'd love to see 4H's take on some of them, especially if they go the more unique route for some of them, like the Jim Carrey version of Christmas Past. I know Christmas Future is essentially just the Grim Reaper, but 4H could give us a really unique take, I think.

This is what I’m after. All of it. Hopefully they spread it out over the next few holiday seasons line others have suggested.

ETA: Got him! He looks awesome.
It is indeed Jacob, and he looks pretty rad. I'm in. Also, looks like the red-robed Father Christmas is available again too.

Got the all in. The fact they are so including the first chapter with him certainly makes it seem they’re going all in on A Christmas Carol. Scrooge and the other 3 main spirits seem a given now.
He looks cool, but I'm passing. I've spent way too much on figures in the last 2 weeks, and this is another that isn't a "must have" but more of a "that looks cool", so I have to stop somewhere.
If they do the other spirits I might be tempted by them, but I don't really have a spot this one could fit into.
I LOVE the accessories though.

I do hope they do a retailer version of Marley down the line because I think once they get deeper into the Christmas Carol cast, people are going to regret passing on Marley. Those start of the line figures are usually the ones people regret missing most. I hear yah about spending way too much lately. Seems nearly everything decided to ship all at once lately.
I think he looks pretty good! Would've been nice for a couple transluscent parts, but it's a small nit. While I absolutely feel like I'll regret it, I do think I'll have to be a Scrooge and pass for now. Didn't realize how many gifts I still have to get for folks for Christmas, and lord knows I've spent too much on myself lately (and there's still more to come). Hopefully they'll take mercy on us and do a retailer version down the road, or at least a yearly bundle/bundle when all the ghosts are out.
He looks okay/good. The screaming head looks more comical to me than frightening. Like Salemcrow, I've been spending way too much recently and need to start being more choosey with my purchases. I don't think this guy is appealing enough to me. Especially when after taxes and shipping, he's probably around $80.
Looks really good, just like everything else in this line, but I think I'm gonna have to pass on this one. Pretty relieved by that as this December is looking really stacked for me already.
@joshsquash729 TBF,, the feet and the edge of the coat are translucent. You can see it better in the beauty shots.
I'm with some other folks. I might regret it, but too much came due at once so I'll have to pass on this one. I did snag Red Death last time though so I'm happy for now. Once we get to the other spirits though, especially Yet to Come, I'll probably have to pull the trigger.
Love the screaming head a lot. Has an almost Jim Henson quality to it.
