Misfits Fan? You Will Want To Be On The Super7 Store On Halloween
Super7 Misfits The Fiend ReAction Figures
The Misfits is one of the most iconic punk bands of all-time. I have only seen them once, and it was a glorious experience. As a horror kid growing up in the '80s and '90s, there was no way you could not be a fan of the band. Sadly, I came of age when the band was embroiled in legal fights and all sorts of nonsense, so I had to wait awhile to get to see them in person, but it was worth the wait.
As far as bands with a "mascot" if you will, it gets no more legendary than The Fiend. I remember the first time I saw a Misfits shirt. It was on Halloween actually, my cousin was wearing one. That turned out to be a huge night for me: that was also the first time I saw Halloween and heard The Misfits for the first time. When I think of halloween, I think of that night. It turned me into a monster kid for life.
SO these are instant buys for me. No hesitation. Featuring the old Kenner-style five points of articulation, and sporting awesome vintage-style cardbacks, the Misfits fan inside me is crying. I can think of no better collectible than to have these two on my shelf.
"Bonfires burning bright.. Pumpkin faces in the night.. I remember Halloween."
Super7 is proud to unveil the debut variants for our 3.75-inch ReAction figure collaboration with punk icons the Misfits! Rising from the depths of the netherworld are the red and black variants of The Fiend with exclusive new card art by the legendary Ed Repka!
Both figures will be available online in the Super7 web store and at our stores in San Francisco and San Diego beginning on HALLOWEEN.
They can charge whatever the hell they want for these. They will be mine. Other ReAction figures cost $15, so I would expect these to be the same. They will be available in the Super7 Store on Halloween here.
