Looks like Dracula, Carmilla, and Godbrand are getting some Diamond Select action figures.

The quality of these figures is the most villainous aspect of all.

Haha. Had to downgrade his name  ;D

Yeah I'm not really digging those figures myself. If they're meant to actually be played with like real toy action figures then that's about as good as they'll get.

I don’t think adult collectors literally “play” with their figures like they did when they were children; rather, they display them in static poses on their shelf. The articulation looks sort of limited too. The only one that I think is worth getting is Dracula, although his face is very generic & doesn’t look that intimidating.

Also these are prototypes, so who knows how the final retail product will look.

That's kinda what I mean. If they're meant to be collector figures then the details should be a steps higher then what we see, and the articulations far less noticeable (if non-existent). These 'prototypes' look more like expensiveness kids toys rather then something a collector would buy. Though collectors do buy many cheap things too as it is about what they want to collect.

I kinda like 'em in an early '90s Batman: The Animated Series action figure way.
