Monster Parade or Monster Factory? Monster Factory was already being used . . . now Monster Family! Much bigger size would really warrant more articulation and to keep the cost down to $25-30 a pop 2-piece construction fits the bill!

I got really excited for the yamobazooka until I saw it in person. I had high hopes for the clear green, but the white paint on the face was a bit lacking for me.

 Re: SDCC Scores
The Mushroom Soup man is definitely slick. I agree that the Bazooka was a bit lackluster... I love the sculpt, but still haven't found a colorway that blows me away.
Joe, can you take us a nice pic or two of the Junker in your haul... I assume that's the special limited PK version, as opposed to the PK Medik?

When did this happen? they resculpted the franken-body so other sb heads could fit. hence this past years releases of frankenfighters & frankenbrains. i believe the bloody initium from last year's sdcc was the first release of the new body.

 Re: SDCC Scores
liquidsky wrote: There are Frankenghosts with two different body sculpts? When did this happen? OG Frankenghost body is only suitable for Frankenghost head. Re-sculpt made it possible to use all other existing SB headsulpts as well as adding heels to stabilize and a lil' work around the shoulders. Because of the new neck fitment the OG Franks head cannot be made to fit without compromising how it looks.

 Re: SDCC Scores
WOW, at first I wasn't impressed by the SDCC offerings, but as always, I'm now regretting not going. It's going to be hard tracking down all the new S7 monster family. I already got the SDCC hollis, but now I need....well... all the others. If anyone decides they don't want the others, LET ME KNOW! Great scores everybody!

 Re: SDCC Scores
I'm kicking myself for missing the Lamour signing. The metallic Mongolions look amazing! And speaking of kicking myself, I always feel twinges of remorse whenever I see other people's hauls. "Where was THAT?", "I can't believe I passed on THAT." Here's mine:
