They did tease that we're getting an ultimate Chucky. Also we have to count the Aliens or at the very least Big Chap.

Unfortunately for the most part if it's horror and isn't Freddy, Jason, or Leatherface it doesn't sell enough to normally justify the character. Michael Myers is apparently just off the table as no one is doing him anymore and supposedly his rights are a huge hassle to get. Beyond that some of the cenobites from Hellraiser are about it for marketable horror figures. If it weren't for the blanketing effect of a line like cult classics or McFarlane's old movie maniacs the majority of licenses like Phantasm, Saw, or House of 1000 Corpses would not have been made. There is desire among fans for figures among these various licenses of course but it usually isn't strong enough across the board, cult classics died because people didn't support it. Honestly I think PCS is taking a risk making these 7" figures and ultimately I hope it pays off for them but at the same time if these even get released it could prove a short-lived effort. I'm only skeptical about these even getting released because it is their first time trying to produce actual figures and they've failed to follow through on some previous items.
