Im assuming this is the version from the new film. I always wanted the origional 1:12 Nosferatu but he's a little too pricey. I'll have to check out this one though.
You can Count on me, Orlok! I'm eager to know how the textures will look on the newer version.
Both NECA and Super7 have released a couple of Nosferatu figures in their respective Ultimates lines (and theres 6-7 Reaction figures, too), so I figured it was Mezcos turn. Plus, that new Nosferatu remake is now in theaters and is being compared to Coppolas Bram Stokers Dracula when to comes to style. It really does look amazing with its Victorian style and blending of color and grayscale scenes and scenery chewing courtesy of Willem Dafoes Van Helsing and Bill Skarsgard as Count Orlock.
I agree, this is the type of figure I really like from mezco, the ones that have no ties to other companies and cant get anywhere else, and are greately enhanced by the cloth fabric they have, I dont see a figure like this looking or being that intresting in a fully plastic sculpted style.

Sure all the Marvel and DC stuff looks cool, but there isn't anything there that isn't suitably done by other companies at a much more reasonable price.

Since I'm no longer collecting DC Multiverse since McFarlane took over and forced it into his "7 comfort zone, which he doesn't even do all that well, I have some disposable income that I might just be inclinedto spend on this thing.
This tends to be my thinking as well.
This line is a little out of my price range, but I just may have to pick this one up.

This seems really cool, I'd be slightly tempted to pull the trigger on this one, I always feel like I sound like a real captain vault wallet, when I say the price point to collect certain lines is just to high for me, with so many cool lines, I can't collect them all, I just can't foot the bill. Nosferatu may be a Mezco I buy,, but gotta see the final product
Very cool figure from what I saw in d_amazings video. ThoughI literally have no connection to the license other than knowing it was one of the first horror movies ever made. Very sure someone with a awesome horror figure collection is going to get this to fit in very well
