Our friends over at Creative Beast Studio have launched their second Kickstarter for a new line of high end Dinosaur collectible figures, this time for tri-horned favorites aka Triceratops & his cousins! They are shooting for $150,000 in start up costs, and they already have 43+ as of this writing. Their first line were Raptor based and have done well over the last year or so. From the press release:

Presented in 1/18th scale, each figure will include around 20 points of articulation and with various sizes available depending on species. The initial Kickstarter goal is $150,000 and comprises four figures: Styracosaurus albertensis, Triceratops horridus (sub-adult), Monoclonius crassus (a Kickstarter exclusive), and Zuniceratops christopheri.

…

Those pledging for the Kickstarter exclusive Monoclonius figure are in for a special treat. The package art is an 80s homage created by none other than legendary fine artist Ezra Tucker, one of the original package artists for Tyco’s Dino-Riders toy line! Ezra’s piece will also be available as an 11×17 signed print limited to only 100 copies.

Head on over to the Kickstarter page and back it if you dig it! We’ve attached some pics after the break. We wish the Creative Beast crew good luck!

NES Toony Terrors Banner

Word is starting to hit that pre-orders for the Toony Terrors video game appearance versions of Freddy Krueger and Jason Voorhees have been cancelled by NECA. Special thanks to @elimcfly88, who shared an email on Instagram detailing the cancellation (see below). The figures, which would have given a NES makeover to their 6″ scale cartoon style Jason and Freddy, were revealed just a few days ago. NECA has removed all mention of the figures from their website, Facebook page, Twitter account and Instagram page. As you may recall, due to ongoing issues with both the Friday the 13th and A Nightmare On Elm Street licenses, there was to be a hold put on new Freddy and Jason merchandise. Randy Falk of NECA had said that these were designed and approved back in Summer 2018. Sadly, it appears as if that wasn’t enough to get these onto shelves.

Cancellation email that is cirulating:
Due to unforeseen circumstances, at this time we will not be able to offer the Toony Terrors Video Game Jason and Freddy figures that were just announced. We are hopeful that we will be able to offer these again in the near future and will keep you informed.

If you already places a pre-order, it has been cancled. Please feel free to contact your sales rep with any questions.
