Full Moon Features (FMF), the production and distribution company behind franchises like “Puppet Master,” “Gingerdead Man,” and “Evil Bong,” has announced the launch of Full Moon Horror Line, a new premium toy division that will create, develop, and produce high-end replicas, figures, toys, and merchandise based on Full Moon Features’ vast catalog of legacy franchises and licenses. Rick Phares, who previously worked with FMF as the Executive Vice President of Full Moon Toys from 1994 through 2000, will develop and oversee all products coming out of the new division.
The Full Moon Horror Line will launch with the release of the 1:1 scale talking Baby Oopsie prop replica, a high-end collectible from FMF’s cult-following franchise, “Demonic Toys.” Cast from the original prop molds used in the film, the Baby Oopsie replica features electronic light-up eyes, actual character voice recordings, and real fabric clothing. The deluxe figure is 25 inches tall, posable, and comes in foil-stamped slipcovers with a COA “birth certificate” signed by FMF CEO and Founder, Charles Band, and “Baby Oopsie” Director, William Butler. Only 900 units of the flagship replica will be produced and, after selling out, will not be manufactured again. The limited edition replica will be available this March at www.FullMoonDirect.com and will hit mass-market retailers later this year. The replica will retail for $299.95.
“Our new line of high-quality replica series is so exciting because they’re unlike anything that has been done before,” says Phares. “Baby Oopsie and the subsequent replica series are all handmade in limited quantities and completed by myself and other notable special effects artists.”
The Baby Oopsie Replicas will be followed by premium product lines such as; the “Subspecies” Bloodstone replica and a high-quality line of 1:1 scale Puppets from “Puppet Master,” a standalone product apart from any previously released “Puppet Master” replicas.
Outside of this new line of high-end premium replicas, the Full Moon Horror Line will pivot to retail items such as; the new blind box program, “Tiny Terrors,” collectible tin tote lunch boxes, a working “Jack Attack” Jack in the Box, along with additional mass market-friendly merchandise. All items from the new toy division will be available for purchase directly through Full Moon Direct and subsequently made available on a mass-market retail level in North America through an exciting distribution deal freshly inked by FMF. Details of the deal are not yet available.
