The Creep is new to this wave, and is the only figure that comes with a stand. He needs this in order to stand, and even with it, he tends to lean towards his side.

The facial details are nicely done, and features a great likeness to the character. He comes with a lantern that he holds in his left hand, which is painted mostly in black, with yellow indicating light.

Ghostface is also new to this wave, and just like The Nun, he is sculpted in a running pose as if he’s chasing a victim. He is in his black robe, with a white mask that has blacked out eyes and mouth. He is also given brown boots, and the robe includes nicely done sculpted details at the bottom just like you remember from the film. He includes a knife that is painted with blue deco, which can be held in his left hand.
