 Re: Yellow Rose Vampire
I love the Rose Vampires, but the Power Mister might give it a run for its money. I'm looking forward to seeing the PM with some color.

They seem to always be the most sought after S7 figure (or so it seems) conjuring up ridiculous places in certain places. I am assuming you are saying conjuring ridiculous prices in certain places? It's a great figure, it's cute, it's a mini and it has a strong crossover appeal. More people want it than the other Monster Family figures but I would not spend over retail for it. That's stupid and feeds the hype beast in the long run.

They seem to always be the most sought after S7 figure (or so it seems) conjuring up ridiculous places in certain places. I'm pretty sure it fetched ridiculous after market prices, and gets tons of hype because it is a great mix of the eastern and western art styles. Also, the retail on these guys are very affordable, and they are made in relatively small runs.

Oh well, doesn't stop me from liking them. I still got a few. I was just curious on other people's view on them and why they're so popular. And while I'm at it, we need more PARTYBALL! I wanna see some more colorways of this sculpt!

 Re: Yellow Rose Vampire
I'm surprised none of you saw the naked pictorial spread Josh did on a bearskin rug for "Pork Magazine"! That's "cross-over" appeal!
Super7 has deftly walked the line between two different markets w/ this fig and the Monster Family in general. Congrats Josh & S7!!!

 Re: Yellow Rose Vampire

> Hi Rob, we did sell out of vampire rose at the shop today sorry. Was hoping > to offer online also, but that figure just keeps getting more and more > popular..

 Re: Yellow Rose Vampire
This reads like a 7 year old KR thread about some Krappy Dummy release. Maybe if the latest influx of n00bs would spend less time being needy douches, stop obsessing over the latest hot shit and focus more time on building up a (good) reputation and become part of the Skullbrain community, maybe other collectors would be more willing to 'help out' . . .

 Re: Yellow Rose Vampire
I would'nt mind at all seeing a new Escaregot or a brand new Josh toy instead of this seemingly endless pounding of Roses. I'm not Dutch !
