I got the Mezco Bigfoot (2 of them) and a Mothman, did have a chance at the Jersey Devil but the lady that had it was a satanist and wouldn’t part with it.
The Mothman is definitely somewhat of a disappointment, looking nothing like what a bulk of the descriptions state, the same was said of the Loch Ness Monster and may have been why they didn’t go ahead with it.

I would swear I saw the Nessie figure in a Toys ‘R’ Us years ago, but maybe it was just the picture on the back of another figure. I remember thinking “Since when is Nessie a narwhal?” (OK, it doesn’t look THAT much like a narwhal. But it also doesn’t look anything like a plesiosaurus, which I think would be closer to the traditional interpretation.)

But what I really want is that Loren Coleman action figure who is doing battle with the Jersey Devil!

I think I found that “Todd Broadwater” dude on Facebook. I sent him a message; waiting to hear back. But I would LOVE to have one of those MoMo the Monster action figures (I’m from Missouri, natch). Does anyone know of any OTHER MoMo the Missouri Monster action figures that were ever produced?

Thanks,

Never seen one of those before.
I am a Chupacabra freak, and the one on the website looks much better.
Hey, when did these things release? Because, I never saw any of these.

Go Chupacabra!

Sad, I’d love to have that Nevermore Jersey Devil. I actually went looking for the Mezco Devil (He’s interesting enough), but could only ever find Bigfoot or Mothman. There was a Japanese series of miniatures that featured a Jersey Devil based on the picture accompanying the account of Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Evans of Gloucester City, NJ on January 19, 1909 (My favourite), and I happen to have that one. Would love to have seen an artist’s take on the Loveland Frogmen too. Shame Nevermore is nevermore.

Hi Craig! I believe the mezco loch ness monster figure was released-I think I saw it on the rack at a lone star comics(when I bought my bigfoot figure). I like the many cryptozoological action figures here in the USA, but you might want to look at some of the Japanese goodies out there. Several companies produce them, and they usually come with some candy! (Some of those I showed to you last Sunday, when you and your wife came to visit)They tend to have a more traditional look or are based on famous crypto photos. Hey-I know of a really cool bigfoot model made right here in Texas! Later, Yarri

During the summer of 2001, I saw (at the studio in Hollywood) the prototype Mothman figure by R. Todd Broadwater. But the makers of the Mothman movie deep-sixed any involvement because they decided soon thereafter to take another direction, and did not want any “concrete” representation of the Mothman to be associated with the motion picture.

In October 2001, I was being filmed for the companion documentary, with John Keel, in New York, and the figurine was supposed to be flown in from LA, to be there, for us to hold and discuss. Instead, the message came from corporate headquarters, “no” figurines, nothing from Nevermore was to be in Search for The Mothman (found on the DVD Deluxe version of The Mothman Prophecies). You will see in the background of my interview on that doc a sizable black owl statue with red eyes that Mark A. Hall bought in WV and gave me. That’s the only “prop” in that doc, and it was purposedly used subtly behind me. But nope, no Mothman figurines were ever endorsed for the movie or for use in any of the publicity.

Nevermore Creations, I believe, collapsed under the weight of no tie-in, due to all of their development expenses, without any broadbased production and distribution – or endorsement.
