The Big Bore...uhh...the Big Four - knewby - 09-16-2009
Now please don't get me wrong, I love Jason, Freddy, Michael and Bubba as much as anyone. I'm just getting bored with the umpteenth versions of each. There are literally dozens and dozens of great movie characters who've never gotten the latex treatment, or got a really limited run and deserve a second chance. Anyone else agree? I like to keep a wide variety of masks/busts. I'd love to see more obscure characters done. I realize the $$$ is with those big guys, but throw us a bone every now and then.............................Larry

You're right, I too would like to see these characters but as you said, artists only continuously sculpt these characters because they know they're hot sellers, this is a business after all. It was nice to see JB do some more obscure horror characters though. Hopefully we'll see more in the future.

Then you guys aren't looking over at DWN Productions. He's been kicking hiney lately.V & Toxic Avenger?!?!Vampire Frost From Dusk Till Dawn. Frankenhooker!He is leading the pack on new masks.

Jon Fuller did the great Rawhead Rex and original characters. JB did a killer Castle Freak and is doing a Tool Box Murderer now. Link to DWN please?

I just want good, perfect screen accurate versions of the whole Jason, Freddy, etc- not a lot exist. At least not in my opinion.As for more obscure, I want Buddy Bacon from Slaughterhouse- a friend of mine was going to do a sculpt and 25 pulls, but only found 3 people willing to pay his price (450 or something). Toxie 1 would also be freaking sweet... however, others can be done like Spike (Gremins), Pluto (as in THE Pluto and not remake Pluto), Maniac Cop (as in the dead version) and so on.

You don't collect anything but Jordu pieces so why should it matter? Just asking.D-Bach and I were talking about this just a couple of days ago. I agree there are so many characters that could be done, either for the first time or another version (since the original run was so limited). I would love to discuss another group project with my man Rich but I know he is focusing on his own projects for Monsterpalooza (if you're interested to hear my idea R, drop me a message).I say get a group of people together, approach an artist and commission a piece <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumbsup.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":thumbsup:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"thumbsup.gif\" />

Thanks for the link sir. Yes, very, very nice selection there. I, in fact, own their "Nubbins" piece. Great quality at a great price.....................Larry
