As an italian and a statues & figures fan, I'm proud to see a company from my country doing something like this and your appreciation of it. I wasnt lucky enough to get this piece, I can't afford it at the moment and couldnt when it was presented, but I'm glad you can enjoy it. Great video!
I ordered this waiting for it to come. I have the Bela Lugosi I just need them to make the Wolfman Lon Chaney mommy and Frankenstein, Boris Karloff. That’s what we need next.
This is absolutely stunning. I've had a few Nosferatu in the past, but I must have this one. I appreciate the small stitching on the clothing to keep the scale correct. It's so fluid and doesn't have that "tin man" look to it. Superb!
I just got mine delivered today from BBTS and WOW is he AMAZING! Watching your video months ago is what made me bite the bullet! Thank you for making this video!
Great review (as always) Dean. KP continue to deliver the goods. I'd love to see these guys having a crack at giving us a Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes or a Captain Kronos Vampire Hunter figure.
Great 👍 unboxing and review video 🎉 One part of this review that really stood out to me was the fact that you highlighted the different artists involved in creating this masterpiece 👏 I only recently realized that some of my favorite figures and collectibles had input or involvement from the same gifted painters and sculptors. And with the rise of social media, I can often follow, interact and provide feedback and praise directly to these craftsmen. So great that you give credit where credit is due. Cheers 🍻
Congratulations(!) - You have gotten me to purchase more figures than anyone else on YT over the many years now. I just went with the standard this time.🦇
Kaustic Plastik have clearly outdone themselves with this one. Both head sculpts are perfect. There is no doubt about it. The red underneath the eyes adds to the overall creep factor. The skin texture, wrinkles, and veins have all been expertly done. The fingernails are gnarly and creepy, but in a good way. It's as if Nosferatu was pulled straight from the film and then translated into a 1/6th scale piece. The outfit has some solid stitch work and tailoring. To top it off, the casket looks great and it elevates an already solid figure The rats look great. I love the box art as well. Kaustic Plastik are definitely at the top of their game. The overall sculpt, paint, and details that went into crafting this figure are top notch. You are absolutely correct. Nosferatu is easily their best work to date. Nothing against their prior releases, which are exceptional. However, this one is on another level in terms of quality, passion, and dedication. They've raised the bar very high. Great work on their part! Awesome photos as always! Thanks, Dean! I appreciate the hard work! Keep it up! God bless and stay safe!
Agree 👍 with you 💯 percent. If I could have my druthers, the one thing that I would add would have been the hair "rooting" for the eyebrows. I know that might sound ridiculous, but I feel like adding realistic hair effects to those brows would elevate this piece beyond it's already lofty heights. I've seen people add realistic hairs to figures like Yoda and Grogu, so when I get my own copy of this figure, that will be my goal 😁👍
I PO'd this one a while back because the Dracula was so good I knew this one would be a classic as well. There's something about these non-mainstream (DC Marvel etc.) figures that brings a neat atmosphere to a collection. People who see a collection will instantly walk over to these ones and be in awe. Can't wait for mine!
@@deanknight333Definitely! I'm embarrassed to say, but I've been watching you for years and only realised now that I'm not subscribed. Never too late, though, right!? Subscribed my friend. You and Andy from Keyboard Warriors were the first couple channels I ever found when getting into figure collecting. You are one of the more rare horror collectors out there, lol.
I’ve got the Lugosi one already and have this and Christopher Lee on preorder. I am loving Kaustic Plastik’s work so far. I just got my Deluxe Dale Cooper with the Laura Palmer base and he is phenomenal as well. They are helping me achieve what I want my collection to be: very few major modern franchise pieces, just movies (and TV shows) I absolutely love. I do have the new RotJ Vader on preorder, but he’ll be my only Star Wars piece.
Dean I just want to say a big thank you to you for giving us that early review. Because of it I was able to order the figures before it's sold out at sideshow. He just arrived ten minutes ago and I have to say he's absolutely stunning!! This takes the top spot in my favorite figures in my collection very easily.
Absolutely beautiful......I love this and have it pre-ordered, I own the bela legosi dracula which is brilliant, I have Christopher Lee pre ordered and I love the John Wayne too. Kaustic plastik has become the show pieces of my collection. ❤❤❤❤❤
Cannot wait to get mine. So glad I was able to secure a preorder of the deluxe. Was blown away by Bela Lugosi Dracula but wow the quality of this one is on a whole other level all on its own. So insanely good looking.
@@deanknight333 this Nosferatu, Bela and John Wayne have not disappointed me in the least. Amazing. Magnetic bases done right too. The hands on this figure are the best I’ve ever seen. Your video didn’t do them justice, which is not surprising. I’ve had it in hand for an hour and can not stop looking at it. I tried every hand for different looks. Love the easy switch out. The coffin seems lighter than Bela’s by a lot. I now regret not getting Lee’s coffin but him and Van Helsing had to keep the cost down. I might buy a second so I can display both heads. Anyone who sleeps on this will regret it.
This figure does look amazing. I watched your Peter Sellers video and I have to say it sold me on getting it for sure. The quality of Kaustic Plastic is impressive. I have Fonzie on my hit list next. Thanks for the in-depth reviews and honesty.
I was able to pre-order this from Entertainment Earth... Never ordered from there but he's sold out almost everywhere else. They better come through. This thing is absolutely one of the best if not the best horror figure I've seen yet.
Just happened to watch Nosferatu last night! What a movie for its time... truly terrifying... the original Dracula movie... have the web exclusive of this preordered and can't wait to get it. One of the best 1/6 figures I have ever seen... Kaustic Plastik knock it out of the park again.... Fantastic review Dean... Really felt the excitement and appreciation for this one!
Jealousy times 10,000!!! This looks to be THE figure of Nosferatu! You have a great one today! Make him shine in your display room! He is a landmark figure and character! Do him up right!
Great video, can’t wait to receive mine along with the door!! They are knocking it outta the park with their 1/6 figures!! Makes me wish sideshow wasn’t makin a Lostboys figure!!
Justin incredible piece from one of my favorite movies and my absolute favorite vampire movie. I don't know which was better seeing this beautiful figure or hearing the delighted Glee in your voice having this figure in hand. My one small nitpick would be that I wish it had movable eyes so that there isn't the constant side-eye stare. But that's a small nitpick because the expression is beautiful. I know Robert Eggers has a new Nosferatu film in the works and I'm curious if there's any third-party companies that are going to do a figure of it. I'm really hoping they decide to do a 31 Frankenstein.
Dean, this looks like a 1.2k high-end custom figure. The jacket looks much better here then in promo pics. Looks like it falls better on him. In previous KP releases, i always thought their sculpts out-did their paint work. This is all together different. This is a 10 out of 10
Dean, I just ordered. I also pre ordered Lee and Cushing a couple of months ago. But this was purely on a whim, and just because of your review . Cheers On a side note.. now they need to do a Marvel The Tomb of Dracula version 😮
Bloody Jeepers man. I can't tell you how excited I am now from the fact that I ordered the exclusive edition, I think last year. I was so excited in fact, that i didn't know what to say in the comment section of your video. I'm a massive vampire enthusiast. Always have been. All those sexy vampires can be left to the lonely hearts. I can't wait to get this figure
so glad i PO this guy, and awesome review got me more hyped!! i also saw it has a edition size of for each version. At least thru sideshow it is, wasnt sure if they were worldwide numbers.
Awesome and couldn't wait for this one. It was my figure of sdcc last year. Looks incredible and the hands especially are always the best from this company. To me, it looks like a high end custom. Sculpt, paint work, clothing, accessories. Have the exclusive coming (with the extra diorama). Know this takes a bit longer, but will be worth the wait. Just hopefully they speed up direct releases from themselves ahead of other third party stores / hk etc in time. Sort out an agreement they release first. I know iconiqstudios did the same. (or doing it now)
Dean......thanks SO MUCH for your time in this review! JUST ABSOLUTELY STELLER MAN!!!!....JUST STELLER!!! By the way, I read somewhere that the actor (Max Schreck)....if I spelled his name right....actually looked VERY close to this character (Orlok) and during the filming and applying the make up and his effects....such as the long fingers, the face...ears and etc....that the make-up artists didn't have to do much to make him look like the vampire!!!! He already looked the part with not much to do to him! 👍😆
Awesome! Kaustic Plastik once again gives us a top quality product, I would say that it even surpasses the prototype. The painting and details are amazing and the level of realism in the face and hands is incredible, not to mention the coffin and other accessories. But there is a detail that for me does not make it a figure of 10 and that in my opinion lowers the grade to 9.5... the eyebrows. Behind her ears she has remnants of hair and they have been done with artificial hair which looks great on her but makes quite a stark contrast to the sculpted hair on her eyebrows and diminishes the overall realism of the face. It's a pity that something they could have done easily, because putting hair on the eyebrows just as they have done behind the ears would not have cost them much work, it detracts from the outfit a bit, but even so, a figurehead, and I think that perhaps it is the best of the year , or at least it will be among the best. WISHING FOR ME TO ARRIVE!
I will be picking this up to add to my slow growing 1/6th horror line up. Only today i ordered the Kaustic Plastik (Twin Peaks) Special Agent Dale Cooper (Deluxe) from Toys Wonderland, and they posted it today! ..really looking forward to getting that in.
I just went and preordered it from sideshow,i already had him on my wishlist but this review sealed the deal for me,i got the deluxe version too that coffin is ridiculously awesome!! Are you gonna do any tweaks to it or just leave it stock as is? I think it's exceptional as is already but i love seeing you make figures a little better with your skills too!
@@deanknight333 i can see why lol they're phenomenal!! It doesn't need a single thing done to it,i have to snag up that Bela Lugosi sometime soon as well that's probably the best likeness to him I've seen so far,hope they continue to put out amazing horror pieces like these!!🤘 🤘
Seems to be sold out everywhere. After seeing this comment I went to Sideshow to check preorders are sold out but I’m on the waitlist. The only way I can buy this is by making payments on it and I’ve done that before with Sideshow. Looks like ebayers have it but they want much more for it.
Very cool! I love the figure. The original film is so iconic and I also love the 1979 remake and “Shadow of the Vampire”. There’s a second remake coming out this December.
I still like how the silent screamers Orlok looks the best even if it's not the most articulate , it's how I picture him in my head & how he should definitely look in the new movie coming out but I know that won't happen 😢
Looks amazing. I’ll be getting it. The one detail that keeps distracting me is that while every thing is so perfectly detailed and perfectly painted, I don’t like the paint job on the eyebrows. Not to be too picky, it’s not a deal breaker for me. But the eyebrows lack the realism the rest of the figure has. I wish they had done the synthetic hair for the eyebrows too. It would have been consistent with the side hair. I sincerely hope they make a Wolfman/Lon Chaney Jr.
They did phenomenal. Once that Nosferatu movie by A24 comes out next year this guys value is gonna soar. Do you plan on doing the Twin Peaks figure form Kaustic Plastic?
Fantastic piece!!! So many good companies now other than Hot Toys! My one gripe are the eyebrows, which I wish were simulated hair. But otherwise a fantastic figure! I agree the hands are best I’ve ever seen!
Oh yeah! Thought Kaustics Bela Lugosi was epic, this looks even better. I have the Mezco Nosferatu (with the red eyes) and he is cool, so want to pick up this creepy fella. My horror collection is growing so he would be an amazing addition to it, but might have to wait as just got Rick Grimes Walking Dead figure from Threezero so my wallet is getting a bit thin. Having said that, looking to see who has it to pre-order...no-one. Looks like all the pre-sales have gone already!
just in time for The Last Voyage of the Demeter.....paint job is next level. is this the "artist edition" or final ? lugosi takes the cake ! hope they'll do Gary Oldman dracula !!!
