"Infernal Parade no longer part of the Tortured Souls series?"
Todd and Clive had a meeting Thursday to discuss the newest line of figures they are collaborating on - Clive Barker's Infernal Parade. The initial thought was that these figures would fit into the world of Tortured Souls, but as the line evolved and the story began to form in Todd's and Clive's heads, it became a whole new entity. A similar, but seperate creation. Think of the Infernal Parade as the Nightbreed to Tortured Souls' Hellraiser - same creators, but with a new twist.
"But does this mean there will be no more TS lines?"
I would say it's a safe bet that there will be more Tortured Souls in the future. Look at it this way, from now on there will be multiple creations from the minds of Todd and Clive to help fill your horror needs.
That's as much as I know right now and since Todd will be out of town next week I probably won't have any new info for awhile, but when I learn more I'll let you know.

Anyone know who holds the rights to the Clive's(Marvel) "Barkerverse" characters?
'Cause I'd love a set of Perdition's Posse figures.
Hell, I'd even dig a set of HyperKind figures!

lol....I am always digging all those old comics out and rereading them.
Wasn't Ecto-Kid going to be made into a movie at one time?
What! [img]rolleyes.gif[/img]
Nope! Never heard of that one!!
Cool - even more lines from TMP that I won't be picking up! Makes it a little easier on teh pocket book!
Now, please note that I think the TS lines are very well done, just not what I tend to collect.
As unbelievable as it sounds, TS3 actually piqued my interest at Toy Fest.
I liked that the line was getting away from leather and S&M and more into sideshow/carnival freaks. Hell, it sounds like more of a monsters line than the Monsters line.
Right now I'm not 100% sure if I'll be picking them up... I'll have to see pics first-- y'know, when McFarlane thinks it's in their best interest to end the secrecy.
I saw a few sneak peeks at this line when I went to see steve a few weeks ago. It is true, it does not look like TS, but I am sure lots of peeps on here will dig it. I sure did...
Very human. not too much chopping off of the limbs/distortion of the human body. Very Barker.
Hey, I'll buy a whole set, okay?
