Whoops, forgot one..... Skull Splitter MTCC exclusive from series 22. McF was going to offer this through the Spawn store and accepted pre-orders to test demand. I guess too few people pre-ordered, because it was quickly cancelled.

That's my Horrid pic above (my figures)
Necromancer was designed with a different head than what was released. The Manga 2 series was all done up for repaints but never released (some samples have been shown before)

I do know that Bonedust had one too, but without packaging. I still have the Horrid in my eBay shortcuts and have been checking it for years, but I have never seen one since you got yours. Interesting about the other info. I do not recall ever seeing repaints of manga series 2. *goes hunting*

big-e - This head is the one that was originally made for the repaint series - Stalker-subject - I believe I have three Horrid, 'early' color; regular color; brown repaint.

Actually yeah, I do remember the head, now that you mention it. I was really rooting for repaints, but the shitty plastic they used caused them to cancel. Too bad.

I really like monster figures. I really do, I love them. So I was pretty excited when a company called Nevermore Creations entered the scene, and they were going to make a line of creatures based on cryptozoology called Legendary Monsters. Though I was new to the company, their prototypes looked good, and I was excited to add those to my collection. They announced that their line-ups were going to be: Series 1 Series 2 Series 1 prototypes: Unfortunately, these figures never made it out for some reason, and the company quickly disappeared. Sigh. A couple of years later, Mezco announced that they were going to do a line of their own based on cryptozoology, and I, again, was really excited. The sculpts looked good, and we ultimately got BIGFOOT, MOTHMAN and the JERSEY DEVIL. There was also a 4th prototype that was made for the series, but unsure why it did not go into production. Here is the Loch Ness monster: Unfortunately mezco pulled a McFarlane on us, and decided to make these figures 4 inches tall, instead of the 6-7" which was the norm, especially in those days. Needless to say, I was disappointed, and I did not get them. So far, Cryptozoology creatures have not had a fair shake at quality action figures. I hope someday we will see some good figures, but I am not holding my breath.

I like that Jersey Devil figure, never seen it depicted as a deer man with wings and hooves. I seriously would've liked to own that.

It's funny that Sideshow is now selling that Bigfoot statue with a footprint accessory. It's $300, and I'd rather have the 7" Mezco instead.

Well, Todd said he's gonna start the resin statue program in a week or so, I believe those wonderful figures never released are gonna see the light as resin statues.

I'm not a statue collector and I'm not going to enjoy paying 3-4 times the original price, but I still might have to get that Curse Of The Spawn if it happens.

Quick one today.. Blizzard made two series of figures based on the Diablo franchise. They started working on a third, but for some reason, it never came out. Here is a prototype of the Overlord.

There is no way I am going to spend ~$100 on something we used to get for $15. (especially if it comes with one of those shitty plaques built into the base.)

Nope. As far as I know, those were the only two prototypes shown.

I'm one of the few who liked Palisades 12" Spirits Within figures despite their obvious flaws. I read this was nearly impossible to to stand due to the awkward design, still would've been nice to see it released.

Those McFarlane figures would have made him some money. Especially from me! I bought almost every Dragon he made and to see that one breaks my heart! Also, those 4 Horsemen would have been amazing as well!!!! Damn them!!!!
