You may already own some of DST's previous retro figures, such as Dracula or The Mummy, but Universal Monsters Retro Series 4 is set to be released this October. These brand new figures created by Diamond Select Toys include the Phantom of the Opera and the Metaluna Mutant from This Island Earth:
"Get ready for another blast from the past! The fourth series of Universal Monsters Retro-Style Action Figures is due out in October, and we’ve already got packaged pics! The two new 8-inch, cloth-costume figures — inspired by the classic Mego figures of yesteryear — are of the Phantom of the Opera (as played by Lon Chaney) and the Metaluna Mutant from This Island Earth (as seen on Mystery Science Theater 3000). Check out their recloseable blister cards with full color artwork, and place your pre-order today with your local comic shop or favorite online retailer! And look for Dracula, the Mummy, the Creature, the Wolfman, Frankenstein’s Monster and his Bride in stores now!"
