I'm undecided how I feel about the figures but I love the art.


I could scan them for you, if that's something you'd be interested in? I have to open all the boxes, anyway.

The detail is nice and i like that the stickers and box are in the Bikkuriman style. Really does have a japanese keshi vibe.

Sweet!  Thanks for the heads-up, deadonarrival.








Found the smaller images at Entertainment Earth.

No Dracula, Mummy or Wolf Man.  That's enough for one more case, at least.

Wonder what other 3 they would use for the box after that?


Odd color choices.  I don't know why, but I was assuming they would issue these in the more usual Red, Yellow Blue and Green.  The White or Clear glow-in-the-dark figure would have made a good "chase" figure.

I hope these sell here - They should do well in Japan.  Keshi Gomu in blind boxes are quite popular there.


If anybody here gets a case with Frankenstein boxes, assuming they make them, I'd like to get a box from you.

I'm pretty sure this will be the end of it, so there won't be any Frank boxes.

Wow, that's interesting - two different versions of the Creature!

Is there all that much difference between Creech and Revenge?  I could see it if they had done the Walks Among Us version - That one is really different.

About the only thing is the wrist and ankle chains. They're doing a 3.75" Revenge with the chains, too.

The best looking figures are the 50's sci-fi ones:  Creature, Mole Man and Mutant.  I'd like to see them do Invasion of the Saucer Men, IT! Came From Beyond Space alien, Earth vs. the Flying Saucers robots, etc.

I hate the artwork. 

Mike:  You can keep the boxes and cards from my Franks - or give them to someone else who wants them.

The Creature's mouth looks a bit like those blow-up sex dolls that I've..ah...read about.
