That Yorga figure was exquisitely bloody! Love it. Speaking of selling your blood. I've been donating plasma twice a week since 1996 and i get $160 a week. In a month you get $640. That's what i use aside from my normal income to purchase my horror and metal merchandise.
A really interesting episode, Raymond! The packaging/artwork for these dolls is quite impressive and professional, for such limited Run items. We enjoyed the appearance of Billy as well. Looking forward to your future Vincent Price episode!
Hi Raymond, love the Distinctive Dummies, I own about 8 myself, very expensive dolls to collect but truly impressive line of obscure horror characters, thanks for sharing
They are great! Expensive compared to Megos and the average NECA figure, but not as expensive as some collector figures produced at higher volumes by mainstream companies.
If these professionally produced figures were created by a few “fans”, MEGO should form a partnership with Distinctive Dummies now that TOPPS is out of the picture. Great video as always and I hope that you and Billy’s health quickly improves.
Thanks for another entertaining video. I started collecting DD figures about the same time you did. We seem to focus on many of the same figures- Hammer, Price, Naschy, Beast Of Blood, Blind Dead, etc. It would be painful to sell any of those. I agree about the quality of the DD box/card art. The 1/9th scale Daninsky is so special to me that I drew an overlay to cover that original card art. My overlay features head shots of Daninsky and Wandesa with a blood moon behind the werewolf figure. Poster images are preferable to substandard fan art, and most DD box/card art is very good with a few examples that are not. The proper original movie title is La Noche de Walpurgis (1971). I believe the title Werewolf Shadow started with the Anchor Bay 2002 DVD release of the original uncut movie. The U.S. cut version is The Werewolf vs. the Vampire Woman and the English dubbing results in some ridiculous dialog which changes at least one character substantially. In that U.S. version the nudity and much of the gore is edited out, as well as original music, and the opening features scenes of the battle instead of the nudity and gore in the original version. "Woman" (singular) is the way the film is listed on IMDb. The U.S. edited version is PD and shows up on many of the old compilation DVDs in crappy prints. I have the BCI/Deimos 2007 DVD double feature of Werewolf Shadow and Curse of the Devil which features the original uncut version of La Noche de Walpurgis. Neither of those films have had a recent release so that's a good option to see both uncut. The BCI DVDs pop up on eBay for reasonable prices with regularity. The original uncut version in Spanish with subtitles is superior to the U.S. edited and dubbed version. It's the film which made Naschy an international star. If you've only seen The Werewolf vs. the Vampire Woman then you haven't seen La Noche de Walpurgis (Werewolf Shadow), and every Naschy fan should see the real thing. The night of Walpurgis is celebrated on the night of April 30th through May 1st.
God, that 12" Paul Naschy werewolf and the 8" Night of the Werewolf figures are incredible! I adore his films and wish we could get figures of the monsters from them. I agree, I like the makeup work more in the remake than the original.
Hey Ray, I may be WAY too late to the party on this, b/c I saved this to my playlist and am watching in early fall 2022. But I just looked it up on IMDB, and the title is "Werewolf vs. The Vampire Woman". In case you didn't solve it already.
I’m going to be selling these. But not this one. Or this one. This one. Definitely can’t sell this one. Taking this out of the box I don’t think I am selling this one. Of course not selling this one, or that one. lol 😆
I don't keep up with the values on these. From what I have seen over the years, they go up and down. Last I checked, it seemed most had decreased in value. I think they peaked around eight years ago. We'll see what happens when the economy cycles around from the current downturn.
I wish I hadn't watched this video because I'll never sleep soundly again knowing there's an 8 inch Night of the Werewolf figure out there that I'll never own

Wow, that plasma donation really adds up...that money would pay some bills...
Beautiful collection of Distinctive Dummies. 🤘🏻🎃
Thank you!
Thank you, Ray! It's always a joy to see a new episode from you!
Thank you!
Great collection. Congratulations
Thank you!
Great show, all those figures of such high quality and rare.
Thank you!
I love distinctive dummies! And by the way, the HP Lovecraft figures are sold on Cadabra Records. Not sold on Pallbearer Press.
Thank you!
Raymomd,
Like the collection, 🔨 is 1 of my favs also.... Thanks for your time and efforts.
Thank you!
A really interesting episode, Raymond!

Thank you! That VP episode might not come this season! But it will happen eventually.
great episode...thank you
Thank you!

Great collection, I love those Paul Naschy & Count Yorga figures.
I have seen taxi driver figures from ReAction but obviously much smaller scale.
Thank you!

Thank you for thinking of Billy! I doubt Mego will be forming a partnership with Distinctive Dummies.
Love your channel/your way Ray and been really looking forward to the DD reviews and now to press play!.
Thank you! I hope you liked it!
Distinctive Dummies kicks ass. Nice video!

Thank you for all the information! I have the Anchor Bay DVD, which is probably why the "Werewolf Shadow" title sticks in my mind.

Thank you!
Barlow from ‘Salem’s Lot looks amazing . What was the original purchase price ?
Thank you! I think he was originally $125. Now he sells for $300-$500.
Wow was not aware of these. There doing great work!
Matt makes the best custom toys!
Janos starts with a Y sound. At least it did in Werewolf the TV series where the same name is used.
Thank you!

Do you have a maniac cop figure for sale by any chance?
No, I've never owned him. Sorry.
I’m going to be selling these. But not this one. Or this one. This one. Definitely can’t sell this one. Taking this out of the box I don’t think I am selling this one. Of course not selling this one, or that one. lol 😆

Ha!
Great Vincent price figure
Thank you!
Have these appreciated well? From a investment?
I don't keep up with the values on these. From what I have seen over the years, they go up and down. Last I checked, it seemed most had decreased in value. I think they peaked around eight years ago. We'll see what happens when the economy cycles around from the current downturn.
@@RaymondCastile if they are down, probably a better buying opportunity.
I wish I hadn't watched this video because I'll never sleep soundly again knowing there's an 8 inch Night of the Werewolf figure out there that I'll never own
It turns up on eBay. It's not cheap, but it does turn up.
My god you seem like you're going to have a heart attack handling theses figures.
Coffin Joe !
Yes!
It's Woman
Thank you!
