Serious, two repaints, that sucks. Great job on Ghostface and Crepper, but Ash is already not the best Fig in this line and Michael in deeper blue with a little blood on the mask, that are variants, maybe good as SDCC exclusives, but not as new entrys. I really like Toony Terrors, but that is a great disappointment.

I'm wondering if it's because they're running out of new horror characters to make (that would actually sell!)

Jason variants, Kong, AvP... Maybe the Terrifier? Mars Attacks martians would be cool, I know Beetlejuice is coming, oh and I'd love Tarman from Return of the Living Dead!

I mean, they did do 16 unique molds before releasing variants (NES Freddy and Jason don't count since they were cancelled).

I guess. Micheal and Ash are still in Targets by me. Usually you wait until those really dry up and then you answer the fans complaining with” we heard you and we’re bringing back your favorites!”

I am a big supporter of repaints. They're a necessity in toy making, and usually lead to some great looking releases (and yes, there are lazy repaints out there across the toy industry). Repaints are more profitable than unique mold releases. The development costs are already paid for and then that money is funneled back into new tooling.
But how many toy lines wait until the 17th and 18th figure releases to do repaints though?

If they were limited variants or exclusives, then just as many people would complain about how hard they are to find.

Was there any confirmation eather way if we'd ever get Alien or Predator done up like this? Arguably more science fiction then horror but its the announcement I keep hoping for.
