So who has the rights to the "Cloverfield" monster?

[Sir Joey]

i read an interview with the director a few days ago, and he confirmed there is going to be a figure of the monster. who do you think is gonna produce it? mabey some of the folks at mcfarlane can shed some light on the subject.

[Holeman]

Uh, I believe it's HappyFunTime. They're making the bath floaty.

[Diab0lus]

Have any full pics of the monster even been posted anywhere? All I have seen is the crap from that sorry trailer.

[Sir Joey]

no not yet, they are still trying to keep it underwraps until the film comes out.

[SpawnFan1]

Actually there are some pics of that monster known, it looks like a giant whale with legs.

I think I saw it at that "McF's next Movie License" thread.....

[Avatar_of_Chaos]

those were proven to be fan-made

[SpawnFan1]

Oh....well never mind then.

Do they come close then or is the actual design still not known?

[Sir Joey]

i dont think there are any legit pictures that i know of yet of the monster. i was just curious if anyone might of heard something.

[NIDARAM12]

Uh, I believe it's HappyFunTime. They're making the bath floaty.

that would be cooler than anything anyone else would make

[Spawnomite]

I heard it's Hasbro. ;) :p

[possessed]

I...NEED...to know what it looks like man...

[Chunk-Style]

I wouldn't be surprised if McF's got the license for Cloverfield since they announced that have rights to make figures for a 2008 movie, and he worked with J.J. Abrams with the Lost figs. I'll be excited if McFarlane makes the Cloverfield monster, but I hope its a boxset and not crammed into a clamshell.

As for the monster itself, I found a slow motion part of the trailer which shows what appears to be the monster's legs:

Gojira?

Looks like that kind of design....too bad it's not like a Ctulhu monster like some have suggested....

[Rabbit2100]

anyone got those fakes laying around? even if they are fake id like to take a glance at them

[Chunk-Style]

Here ya go, Rabbit. :)

I actually really like both of those pics! If the monster looked that cool and different I would love it. Why is it that a mutant lizard is okay but not a mutant whale? They are the largest animals on the planet!
