Super 7 "Official Universal Monsters Thread"

I missed out on the full color aquarium boxed Creature From The Black Lagoon when it was released back in 2020, BUT Super 7 recently had a Warehouse Find sale, and saw it was listed, so I quickly ordered it.  Just got my shipping notice.  Yippee!!

Just got my shipping notice.  Yippee!!

And none too soon! They are sold out!

[MonsterBaker666]

I was REALLY lucky.  That email notice of the warehouse sale went into my Junk file.  I went to clean it out, saw that the email was there and was sent 10 minutes earlier.  Quickly checked out what was available and ordered it immediately.  About an hour later saw it said "sold out".  Was listed as "low stock" when I ordered it.

Sure hope it's not a "Gee we found these crushed boxes in our warehouse" deal.

Let's hope not!

Just received the color Aquarium boxed Creature.  Perfect condition.  Very nice addition to my collection.  The only thing I'd like that I don't have is the April Fools Day Invisible Man figure.  When they announced it I really thought it was just an April Fools day joke - the joke was on me because it was real.

Forgive me if this was mentioned before but someone on Facebook posted this Remco Glow Mutant they found at Target.

Hmmm? That's a new one!

[MonsterBaker666]

Yeah, was that a recent find of that figure?

I've never seen it, before. It's not on the S7 website. Can't find a pic with Google, either.

Did they say when they found it? Recently? Years ago? Did they post any other info about it?

All the Super 7 "Remco" cards have that same number.

And now I have to spend the next month going to every Target I can find every day to find that figure. That is exactly the figure on exactly the card I've wanted since I was 5 years old.

There must be some licensing reason Super 7 doesn't do the Universal Monster figures on Remco cards. As soon as the Mutant is no longer licensed as Universal Super 7 throws it on a Remco card.

Odd that NECA can put Universal Monster figures on Remco style cards but Super 7 hasn't. [Edited to clarify UM figures]

You mean, because REMCO didn't do a Mutant back in the '80s?

Is this not one?

Yes, they didn't do it and I dreamed of it but never even hoped it would ever be made.

The Mutant is no longer licensed as a Universal Monster. I've prodded Super 7 about how much an awful lot of people would like a Remco carded Bride, Hunchback etc to go with their original Remco figures. No luck.
