Man, these are Cool !
Luv that Frankenstein bucket, true Karloff likeness.
Surprised to see these New Universal items, since they announced lost of Universal license.

Happy Halloween to us!

There shipping is crazy! Think I'll wait to see if somebody else is selling the Creature.

Their Creature bucket reminds me of the DPS mask from a very old Post Studios catalog page >

I didn't get the Super7 buckets, so I'm extra excited for these.

Shipping and tax for the pair came to $17.  That's not awful for larger boxes (even light ones)

MrDark1

I would jump on these if wanted. 
Doubt these will get out to many retail shops, as TOTS already notes them as "Limited" on their site.

Yeah.  I couldn't order them fast enough.  Excited to have them to go with my Halloween pail.

I'm hoping this means we might see more buckets for their other licenses.  That would be a lot of fun.

I fear their availability also from just looking at TOTS site, and they only have 1-2 of most Uni Monsters items left in stock.  From masks to air fresheners, sad to see it all ending!

I'm sure the license will come back around again at some point.  But if sales were slowing, the best move is to let it go and reacquire in a few years when people will be excited to see it again.

$12.25 for tax and ship for the Creature bucket I just bought.

That could be worse.  I paid around $40 for my last orders shipping.  But that's probably going to be broken up into 3+ shipments.

Yea, and if they reacquire it a few yrs from now, it will be interesting to see whats offered now they own Don Post Studios...looking forward to That Calendar day!
