Ok ok. Yes, that may be the case, but before the rights to The Thing reverted, didn’t Randy say that license wasn’t bankable enough (or something to that effect)? And what about Escape from New York? They Live?? Point still stands: these seem like a riskier bet then some other well-known properties begging for the Ultimates treatment. Heck, NECA dipped into Candyman and Nightbreed with the retros, but Puppet Master goes straight to Ultimates?! Whatever. I’ll take it! But still doesn’t make sense to me hahaha

And I don’t mean to detail the thread. I’m genuinely excited for these. Always loved the Puppet Master movies. I remember renting them as they were released.
