Fresh Monkey Fiction | Order of the Crimson Moon Preview

Welcome to my video taking a closer look at the Fresh Monkey Fiction preview of their upcoming "Order of the Crimson Moon" line.
Fresh Monkey Fiction made the announcement on Saturday 1st June, in preparation for its official launch taking place on Monday 3rd June. I've gathered all the digital renders of the new Order of the Crimson Moon figures they posted and share a few thoughts about these curious new action figures.
Why curious? Well... they bear a curious resemblance to a vintage action figure line I've been more than eager to see exist in the contemporary 6inch form.

Some great looking figures!!! I'm looking forward to that Baron Ironblood wannabe

[@MoDXtraGC]

Me too! Going live in just over 2 hours... ;)

[@mooreworthyfitness]

Great breakdown! I will end up preordering all the werewolf figures for sure. Maybe one of the human ones as well.

[@MoDXtraGC]

Going live in just over two hours ;)

[@Gforceracing20]

These are sooo tempting, I'll let them speak to me at JoeFest

[@MoDXtraGC]

I am eagerly anticipating the GForce Joe Fest vlogging experience!

[@charlockprime]

I really hope Fresh Monkey and BBTS, together can figure out how to make all of their new products more accessible to folks overseas. It seems like they're missing out on a huge market by not doing that.

[@MoDXtraGC]

For sure - especially if they're releasing figs inspired by the UK Battle Action characters LOL

[@Paul_1971]

I'm overseas in the UK and preordered it - where's the difficulty?

[@MoDXtraGC]

As have I.
But - I believe what Charlock is referring to is a matter of cost. It's much more of a budget strain to support the niche/boutique action figure manufacturers when importing. With tax & shipping you can spend (on an individual figure purchase mind, not combined shipping or owt) over £50 for what could be bought for under £40 locally.
Suffice to say I was pleased to see the news that Kapow Toys over here had struck a deal with Fresh Monkey Fiction for Operation Monster Force, and hopefully Order of the Crimson Moon too. A single Operation Monster Fig from Kapow is going to come to around 39 quid shipped (off the top of my head, I might be slightly off) My Fresh Monkey Fiction Father Christmas last year cost me 51 quid shipped. With a £200 budget I can import 4, or buy 5 locally. That's not great for them, it's not great for me, but the tax man in two different countries is happy LOL

[@Venom-cd7tw]

Valacrap can learn a thing or two from these guys sculpt and proportion wise

[@MoDXtraGC]

I definitely have a preference towards these too, but nothings for sure until we've got them in hand. Let's see...

[@killaking2880]

hopefully they make them soon, as i want the zombie werewolf!! i might be able to part with an extra helmet for ya! as i will get more than one probley 4

[@MoDXtraGC]

If the production turnarounds on the Fresh Monkey Fiction Naughty or Nice line (that uses the same minimum order system as this will) then it may be quite a bit of a wait from order to ship. In fact, there was a Halloween subline that, if memory serves, didn't make the threshold and didn't move to production. So it's going to be a waiting game for sure...

[@MoDXtraGC]

Oh - and thanks for the helmet offer, that's really kind of you :) #collectorshelpingcollectors

[@charleshunterii7157]

At first glance I thought these were red shadows

[@MoDXtraGC]

LOL yeah - that's why I'm so interested in them ;)

[@TheRaider8199]

They pretty much are.

[@Cobra.in.pierre]

Zombie general. Neat

[@MoDXtraGC]

Yeah - they look pretty badass, don't they?
