Street date and online date is 9/30.  We'll see if Frankie's there.

Where did you get the online date?  I can't find it on Target's site (no pre-order listings, etc.)

I picked up Frankenstein at my local Target today. This particular store had 4-5 Draculas last time I was there, and all were gone. So these seem to be selling briskly, which hopefully bodes well for continued UM releases.

I thought the East Coast was only 3 hours ahead of me, not 5 days ahead!  I must be wrong because I keep seeing a ton of posts of Mego Frankie in Target stores in now in that region of the US.  Sucks for us on the West Coast.

I drove all over OKC yesterday looking for them, but found nothing. Today in Wichita Kansas, I found two. It was a good day.

For those finding these, can you post a close up of the head/face of this figure?
Does the sculpt look like Karloff, can you see his likeness under the factory paint job?
I know his image is on the package, is it in the figure itself?

Thanks for the close-up pics!

Looks more like Glenn Strange than Karloff to me.

Yup there’s more of Strange than Karloff in my opinion too.

That's because it is a Glenn Strange likeness used in the sculpt, boys. The Mego is an economy version of this previously released (and superior) version pictured below. The original version has a strurdier body, neck bolts, and nicer illustrated packaging. Possibly better clothes, but I cannot tell from looking. I love the original. I ain't getting off the couch for the mego re-release,lol.

What Anton said. If you already have the EMCE version, this downgrade is a waste of time, effort, and gas.

Yeah, waiting for online.  The Drac is too tall for the EMCE Frank, so I'm gonna have to get it.
