I was lucky enough to get the Creature for myself the first day.

I missed out. :(  Now I'm waiting for the price to come down on eBay.

Bought the two rarest Creature plush toys, today. Haven't seen either of these for sale in well over a decade! Maybe two?

Congrats!  I don't think I've ever seen the blue one.  The face on the green guy is cute.  Makes me smile that he's wearing pants, he must be walking among us.

Apparently, there were UM plush toys released in conjunction with the 1990s "Monster Bash" pinball machine. Don't know whether, or not, I've seen any of the others.

Looked at the Spirit Halloween store online, and they have a few new things. Mainly Frankenstein stuff. Gonna try to go to one by me tomorrow and pick up this Frankenstein doormat that looks pretty cool (https://www.spirithalloween.com/product/frankenstein-doormat-universal-monsters/248670.uts).

There's also Frank and bride tins, and a patch and pin set with Frank and the creature.  A spirit hasn't opened near me yet.  Hopefully soon!

I searched for UMs, but didn't see those.

I found these in a private Facebook group I'm a member of.

No info on where they can be bought.

They said they had them in their local spirit.  Maybe they'll turn up online later.

Thanks for sharing!  Those pins are great! 

I don't have a ton of pins but I've been thinking about how to display them.  I've seen some cool bat & coffin shaped display boards.  I've also been thinking about getting a small shadowbox to match my usps one to display them. 

Would love to see pics if anyone is displaying theirs.  Thanks So Much!

Here are my Creature pins and I don't know how to display them, either.

It also reminds me of the Sideshow's Little Big Head UM wrestlers.  I remember seeing these on the shelf when I worked at TRU.

Gotta use that stupid Instagram account for something.  I found these in a private Facebook group I'm a member of.

Hey, my pics!  ;D

I did indeed post the on FB last night, as it is so easy to do. All of it was in-store in an Atlanta, GA Spirit Halloween.

That has GOT to be what it is. I'd aways been told it was licensed from Monster Bash, and I'm the one who passed that info on to Mike, but looking at what you've posted, kapkarrot, it has to be from Sideshow's wrestling line.
