Mezco Toyz is thrilled to announce they have acquired the licensing rights to Halloween 2, to be released in August 2009, and directed by Rob Zombie. Mezco will be producing action figures, and Living Dead Dolls for this popular horror franchise. t's that time of year again, and Michael Myers has returned home to sleepy Haddonfield, Illinois to take care of some unfinished family business. Unleashing a trail of terror that only horror master Rob Zombie can, Myers will stop at nothing to bring closure to the secrets of his twisted past. But the town’s got an unlikely new hero, if they can only stay alive long enough to stop the unstoppable.

Very cool they make great figures, these shoold come out nice, a 12 inch figure of "Hobo Myers" on my desk, priceless!

Will the Hobo Myers figure come in a scratch-n'sniff variant, or will the regular version just waft an overpowering smell of piss from it as soon as you open the packaging?

Very cool news. Michael Myers has been sorely missing from Mezco's awesome Cinema of Fear line. ...No longer. Definitely looking forward to what they come up with.

the 2032 version of the H2 Micheal Myers action figure is much better. It comes complete with the detachable fake rubber hand, flatcap and interchangable moustaches. It also has a button on the back that creates heavy breathing noises and comes with a syringe of liquid LSD that you can inject into the action figures knucles causing its arms to make a stabbing motion.

all i can say is, they had better make an 18" "hobo Myers" with the chunck of his mask torn off. That would be awesome! Hate or love these movies, you have to love the toys!

http://www.petitiononline.com/robzh2/petition.html To: Weinstein Company/Rob Cummings To: Robert Bartleh Cummings (A.K.A. Rob Zombie) CC: Malek Akkad, Bob & Harvey Weinstein Weinstein Company LLC 345 Hudson St., 13th Fl. New York, NY 10014 RE: Rob Zombie’s Halloween 2 We, the undersigned, ask that Robert Bartleh Cummings (A.K.A. Rob Zombie), director of Weinstein Company/ Dimension Films upcoming motion picture “H2: Halloween 2” reconsider the decision to take the sequel of the re-visioning of Halloween and The Halloween Franchise in the direction in which it has been directed. We feel that Rob Zombie’s 2007 Re-visioning of Halloween took the film and franchise in a wrong but still salvageable direction. From the information provided by Robert Cummings on the sequel to that motion picture and the trailer released to the internet on youtube.com and movies.yahoo.com. It is clear that he is taking the Halloween franchise further down the spiral from which many fans feel there will be no return. We feel that from the scenes of the trailer and information provided the film looks to be a mimic of a few combined horror motion pictures. We also feel that his casting of Sheri Lyn Skurkis (A.K.A. Sheri Moon Zombie) is not based on acting ability or merit, but due only to the fact he must cast his spouse in every motion picture he directs. Sheri Moon should be omitted from the cast and those scenes be corrected. Another major concern for us fans is that it has been reported by Robert Cummings, other cast and news that Michael Myers will not be wearing the classic William Shatner based mask or any altered or re-envisioned concept of that mask for 70% of the feature motion picture. We the fans ask that Mr. Cummings re-write and re-shoot the film with the deletion of the mentioned scenes and/or plot. We feel that Michael Myers is 100% evil without cause and should be left at that conclusion. If the film is released as it now stands it will without a doubt destroy the entire franchise and become a mockery of what Debra Hill, John Carpenter, Moustapha Akkad, Tommy Lee Wallace and so many others have immortalized in horror motion picture history. Sincerely, Halloween Fans
