Yeah, it's that set. Apparently similar situation to the diorama. A bunch got shipped to the wrong address which left people without a set. They may have had to fast track a production run or maybe they're shipping out whatever gets returned.

Random thought, looking over my Toony Terrors shelf: While I don't pick up many of the modern day characters, one I would really like them to do would be Gabriel from "Malignant".  I know some folks don't care for that movie, but I loved it and think it would be a fun figure.  Not sure I'd need an Ultimate though.

I think I may've meant the NYCC exclusives. The uh...Kevin Eastman, glow Invisible Man etc. I forgot NYCC even happened.  Those are the ones I'm waiting for.

I hadn't heard of anyone waiting on the NYCC stuff, though I guess it would follow if people are still waiting for SDCC stuff. I know Nostalgia Unboxed is still waiting for his first turtles.

Saw this post on reddit about Basil Gogos-themed repaints of the Universal Monsters figures.  Honestly, this was the first repaint I figured NECA would be doing after B&W, so I'm surprised it took this long.  Unfortunately, from the bit of reading around I did, it seems like they are (for now? for always?) exclusive to the Universal Studios them parks?  Anyways:

Those alternate Bey heads are fantastic!  Still can't believe we are getting this figure.

@cmoney This is awesome news. I love werewolves and The Howling in particular, can't wait to see more images and grab this one.

Yeah... I know there have been a ton of Werewolf figures released in the last year or two - and most of them just haven't been my speed.    This figure from NECA of the Howling Werewolf is the one I want.   That thing looks great.   Can't wait to be able to order that.

Thanks for the tip.  Grabbed the Lee figure on clearance as well.  Also, saw a Jason and Elvira and other figures as well.

The Tour Guide Beetlejuice has been available for pre-order for a while now.  So far it's the only new Ultimate they've offered, the others have just been re-issues of the old unarticulated figures from years gone by.
