    Damn nice figures. But yes, the packaging blows. Discrimination against MOCers? [img]confused.gif[/img]

    "I have a love/hate relationship with the packaging..

    theres a lot of negative space on some figures but we need the extra room to fit Darkman and Imhotep sized figures.

    My problem with the trational style clamshell most use is that the larger figures always seemed 'jammed' into the packaging with their limbs all twisted around to fit. So I thought I'd make something big enough for all our figures to fit into neatly.

    Of course we see the problem that occurs.

    I might try to put a different background in next series to break up the space behind the figures.

    Overall Im really glad most of you accept it."

    I think it looks great.

    I think the cluttered stuff that some companies do looks, well, cluttered.

    so, because it's not "modern", it's not good?
    that's pretty lame, IMO.
    I think this is a refreshing change from what I see in the stores. and being movie figs, the marquee makes sense.

    and to answer your questions, yes.
    yes I do.

    Packaging, smackaging. All packaging looks the same when I toss it in the trash.

    I'm not saying Modern is always better..... I still play a fender strat and a tube amp... I can't stand the high tech guitar gear.

    Some things just look a bit... um... "Pleasantville" to me. [img]wink.gif[/img]

    The Packaging is fucking horrible...but I can't wait for the figs. Now Playing and Cult Classics are gonna rock...I'm excited about these lines in the way I used to be excited about Movie Maniacs when they were first being made.

    There are so many good B movie licenses like these that McF has passed on...and there are so many more awesome versions of characters like Jason, Freddy, Leatherface, etc. that McF never bothered making. I mean, they made great use out of the Alien / Pred licenses, but I have always wished they had done more with older MM licenses...it's cool that somebody out there, if not McF, is going to make these figs [img]smile.gif[/img]
