I love looking at everyones monster rooms. I did not see a Thread for this. So If its ok with the Mods I will start here. I think this would be cool to have one place to check em all out. This is my first try at posting a picture here. So don't get the silver bullets out just yet. HHW

You done good, but if you ever mess it up, just click "modify" above one of your posts and you can go back over and over until you have it fixed.
Cool monster room! I'm going to take some pics of mine at some point, but right now I'm working on changing a big part of it so they'll have to wait until all that gets done.

Awesome stuff HH!!!
About a month ago I started to redo my room, it's a much slower process than I had hoped. It's like putting a puzzle together, gotta move an entire shelf for one piece etc... It's slowly but surely getting coming together.
Thanks and Very Nice. I love it. HHW

Thanks, guys. Anytime you are ever in the good 'ole midwest/St. Louis area, drop me a line and pay a visit.
Here's a few close-ups of the AHI and Lincoln monsters cases for you, gracebuster. I've tried to collect an example of each variation/style of monster. Still have a few to go:

Andy has some really great rarities in there, stuff that even in the closeup pics are hard to make out. There is a Tomland mini-Wolf Man figure in front of the Lincoln Wolf Man figures. He has a variation on the AHI Frankenstein I've never seen anywhere else. Really spectuacular to see all together. Plus, it's all neat and orderly and you can walk around and see everything without tripping over something, unlike most (self included).

Thanks for the nice comments on my gallery room. It has been a goal of mine for many years, and it's coming together.
I think texture and color are more important than we may realize in our attraction to certain things; even monster toys. I try my best to accentuate these elements in displaying them. I think that's part of why I really enjoy looking at other collector's displays. You can sometimes see the same things, but in a totally different context that makes you appreciate them even more.
Bobby's display takes this natural, deep wood tone approach that really brings out the textural and color elements of his stuff.
HHW's room is similar, and the incorporation of the comfy couch and TV make it a really inviting place. Like a "den" quality, it just looks like a place that you could tune out the world and get lost in all that monstery goodness.
Then, Dan's Dr. Shocker museum...it's really looks amazing because it has that "larger-than-life, I gotta get a ticket to this place" feel. I'm compelled to make a pilgrimage - much like the Ackermansion.
Keep them pictures comin'! I wanna see some Bob Morris display... ;D

It is indeed just that. I happen to own a loose head from this same puppet. It wasn't until Raymond brought an intact puppet to the Toy Tour that I finally got to see how this toy (or puppet) actually looks. And to be honest, it's a toy that is NOT on the top of my list of favorite collectibles. A bit too clownish for my own liking, but then I haven't looked in the mirror in a while either. :)

I think it has indeed Charlie...and I'm all the happier for it. I'm in the middle of rearranging my room, so it will be a while before it's photo-worthy. Still, I guess that saves something for later days.
I believe that this has been my first official post here since we opened the doors. Been particulary busy this past weekend, and it was all I could do to keep up with the flurry of posts. I'd say things are progressing nicely so far.

That is a Funworld puppet, yes indeedy. The eyes were originally filled with water. They were sold in bags with header cards. If anyone has the devil from this set, I'm your man. I think I still have my childhood Funworld devil somewhere in the basement, but his eyes are long gone. The Frankenstein is ok, but I really like the devil. I've got "funworld devil" as a saved search on ebay. Lots of Funworld stuff on ebay every Halloween, but so far no devil.

After this impressive parade of monster rooms, it is time for me to present the most exciting one of all - MINE!
Feast your eyes and glut your soul on this glorious display of monster goodness:
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes1.jpg)
Yes, I know, you can't believe your eyes. But it's true. You are actually looking at nearly every AHI variation mint on card, carded Lincoln monsters, carded Tomland, boxed Remco and Mego monsters. Wow! Isn't it amazing to see them all in one place?
Do you want more? Well get a load of this:
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes2.jpg)
Don't faint. Yes, you are looking at the rarest 60s monster treasures, all mint in boxes. Who would have thought you would ever see all these items together at one place, at one time, in one photo!
But there is so much more!
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes7.jpg)
Above, you will recognize what is truly an extraordinary collection of Don Post and Topstone masks. There are some super-rare items in that picture, as anyone who knows their masks can plainly see.
You will notice that I have a unique display aesthetic. I like to think of it as the "mint-in-box-in-box-in-box" approach. It makes the collectibles seem that much more unattainable, even to their owner.
Now in this picture, I diverge slightly from my usual style.

This corner of the World's Greatest Monster Room breaks the rules by actually showing some of the toys themselves. Rest assured, most of the toys in that photo are safely tucked away inside the pristine white chastity box. But a few unclean relics have been strategically placed atop the box, exposed to human contact. You will notice the dry cleaning bag to the right. It symbolizes the dichotomy between the mint and the wretched.
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes3.jpg)
A similar theme continues in this vignette. It is carried even farther by the (gasp) OPENED toy package lying on top the boxes. This merely underscores the dangers the toys inside the Xerox boxes face should they venture out into the world. Their minty virtue will surely be spoiled. The spoiler himself is represented by the sinister dinosaur to the left (left being the devil's side), waiting with hungry grin to ruin the toys should anyone foolishly open the boxes.
To contrast with this Kubric-ian sterility, I devised this astounding display in the style of early Darren Aronofsky with a little Quay Brothers mixed in for spice:

Let's take a closer look at the grunge side of my Incredible Monster Madness Room:
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes6.jpg)
There are some subtle details worth pointing out in the above picture. Notice how a Marx Mummy lies on top a Tomland Fly with its shoes off? Could this be sexual metaphor? Questions... And what of the Eye-Lite Skull with a broken jaw? What should we make of the boxed Flying Monkey atop the Boglin Slobster? This oasis of garage sale decadence infects the surrounding boxes, which are starting to open, exposing the contents to the ravages of the world.
I spent many years building this intricate Monster Room, arranging the boxes just so. Sometimes I will nudge a box a little to the left or right. Other times I will stand on a box. On rare occasions, I will even go inside a box and close the lid. Sometimes I forget which box I put myself in. Oh, I tell you, that can truly be a pickle!
Feast your eyes and glut your soul on this glorious display of monster goodness:
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes1.jpg)
Yes, I know, you can't believe your eyes. But it's true. You are actually looking at nearly every AHI variation mint on card, carded Lincoln monsters, carded Tomland, boxed Remco and Mego monsters. Wow! Isn't it amazing to see them all in one place?
Do you want more? Well get a load of this:
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes2.jpg)
Don't faint. Yes, you are looking at the rarest 60s monster treasures, all mint in boxes. Who would have thought you would ever see all these items together at one place, at one time, in one photo!
But there is so much more!
(http://thegalleryofmonstertoys.com/msc/boxes7.jpg)
Above, you will recognize what is truly an extraordinary collection of Don Post and Topstone masks. There are some super-rare items in that picture, as anyone who knows their masks can plainly see.
You will notice that I have a unique display aesthetic. I like to think of it as the "mint-in-box-in-box-in-box" approach. It makes the collectibles seem that much more unattainable, even to their owner.

Posablemonster - where did you get that little stand that The Book of the Dead is sitting on? I have that book/DVD signed by the entire cast, even the FX guy and Ted Rami who played someones feet in one scene :D . Took me a couple years to get 'em all. I just need to figure out a way to get Sam Rami to sign it now. LOL

Thanks for the nice comments on my gallery room. It has been a goal of mine for many years, and it's coming together.
I think texture and color are more important than we may realize in our attraction to certain things; even monster toys. I try my best to accentuate these elements in displaying them. I think that's part of why I really enjoy looking at other collector's displays. You can sometimes see the same things, but in a totally different context that makes you appreciate them even more.
Bobby's display takes this natural, deep wood tone approach that really brings out the textural and color elements of his stuff.
HHW's room is similar, and the incorporation of the comfy couch and TV make it a really inviting place. Like a "den" quality, it just looks like a place that you could tune out the world and get lost in all that monstery goodness.
Then, Dan's Dr. Shocker museum...it's really looks amazing because it has that "larger-than-life, I gotta get a ticket to this place" feel. I'm compelled to make a pilgrimage - much like the Ackermansion.
Keep them pictures comin'! I wanna see some Bob Morris display... ;D
Andy, what a beautiful assortment of monster toys. I absolutely love the way that you have everything displayed, especially that carded Lincoln Mummy. ;) One question though. Is that boxed Lincoln Wolfman original?

No, no, I think you're right. Ray has got them down as European releases too on his Gallery of Monster Toys website. Such sweet artwork. At this point, I'd even settle for a reproduction boxed set as something tells me that an original set isn't in the cards. :'(

That is an antique hardwood bookstand that came from an old Catholic Cathedral Church in my home town. I purchased it at an estate sale. It's perfect for the book. PM me if you are interested in trading me a mask for it! ;)

The best info found on the boxed Lincolns are that they originated in Europe. My Wolfman box is an amazing fake! It's really hard to tell unless you inspect it carefully. The Hunchback is original.

It was either Shadowlands or Let's Talk Toys that offered a complete set of boxed Lincolns in the early 90s. (For the astronomical price of $1,500! Or was it $900? Oh well, back then $900 might as well have been $90,000 to me.) I talked to the seller on the phone and he said they came from a case in Europe.

There is an amazing amount of covet-able THINGS on display...
MY Monster room is too small to swing a Pendulum, but hopefully bigger digs means a bigger Monster Room...at least that's what my wife tells me!
These pictures are OLD, and I am currently in the midst of a massive re-organization. Inspired by some of the collections I've seen in the group, I am MIXING my monsters. Yes, the shelves will contain groups of Monsters in sets...all the Mego monsters together, all my Auroras together, etc...
Formally they were all segregated as you'll see.
I have a LOT more items and even added a couple of more shelves but the wall paint job is the same, and the Moon and the stars STILL glow in the dark...
I'll take all new pics soon...but for now, here is what was...

I feel so unworthy. Those rooms are amazing. Shock and awe! I have nothing to compare -- maybe my comics collection at one time, before I sold much of it -- but nothing like the rooms shown here. Wow.
One good thing is most of us can show our wives this thread and say, 'See how restrained I am?'
Actually, at my house the rule is 'no monster stuff upstairs,' altho I've cheated a little with the bust of the Bride of Frankenstein I got at Wonderfest, which is in the living room.
But I just gotta say that the energy in these UMA monster room photos -- the care and feeding of the hobby's inner truth -- is really empowering. And very wise. Great stuff!

Amazing! I'm just starting out now and you can all be confident that as my collection grows, I'll be revisiting these pics for inspiration and ideas. It's all new to me, so there's so much out there I've never seen. But I look forward to learning..... :)

I may be wrong but I don't think they give them out any more.
I got mine from one when of my old Marvel Editors found an old box full of them up at Marvel and sent me a few as gifts .. So no I never got one the classic way by writing a great letter or finding a mistake in the pages of a pre - 1980 tys Marvel comic.
For those of you who are not Comic fans .. A No prize was something Stan Lee came up with when a reader went above and beyond the call of a normal reader and wrote a letter which pointed out a mistake made in a comic, a story point or continuity error and so forth. He came up with these No Prizes and would send out one.. An empty envelope with No Prize in it :)
I did not get mine by doing that but I still enjoy having them anyway :)
Best..

Hello all,
First off I just want to say how much better I think this board is than the last one. I never went to the last one because I didn't feel like it focused enough on just "monster talk". I really like the layout of this new site and also the fact that you can post photos in a thread. As long as the board stays along this new path I'll be a more active member.
On that note, here are a few photos of some of my collection... ENJOY!!!

And for that I am grateful. You have an incredible collection there (is it Shawn?). I believe we have spoken once or twice before via e-mails? Love your Flickr folders by the way! Drooled all over myself there many times before. Thanks for sharing pics of your incredible collection!

Amazing collection Zombo. I know how you feel about the old board. I sometimes felt intimidated due to my lack of knowledge outside of monster toys and if its one thing these guys know is monster trivia. I'm liking these individual forums much better. Now it's time to go back to take a closer look at your collection pics. For the record, you've got one mighty sweet Ideal Monster Lab there. Just beautiful!

Hey Shawn,
Glad you made it over - I was really hoping you'd jump in on this post. You have one of the finest monster collections around. Some really amazing stuff, and a huge quantity of it...thanks for the pics. BTW...I'm still drooling over that green Shock MOnster mask of yours - AWESOME!

Thanks fmofmpls (Terry correct?, yes it is Shawn) for the compliments and glad you enjoyed the flickr stuff. I'm actually on there quite a bit. It's amazing what you can find photos of searching around on there! I've also started groups on flickr focusing on photos of Monster magazines, old photos of people as kids in Halloween costumes (lots of Ben Cooper, Collegeville etc.), peoples collections on display, vintage roadside attraction souvenirs and Robert McGinnis paperback covers.
I threw in the photos of some of my movie poster collection just to show some stuff other than toys. Unfortunately it's much more difficult to display that collection!
Roback, what I meant about the old board was that I felt there was too much talk about things other than monster stuff. Now I'm interested in MANY things other than monsters, but I don't come here for talk of music, food, peoples kids, what you did over the weekend etc. There are other places for such things. At least now if that sort of stuff creeps in here it's easier to avoid.
Andy, thanks again for the invite. I would put up some better photos of that Shock Monster mask for you but my camera died. Maybe after Christmas!
Thanks again for the kind words all of you and please everyone keep posting photos of your collections!!! Also a really big THANK YOU goes out to all who made this site happen and keep it going. Keep up the good work!!!

Great pics, Shawn. I love your collection and the way you have it displayed. Total monster overload! ;D
It'll probably creep in here a lot, over in the general discussion area. Many of us have become friends (online and offline) beyond the monster hobby, and enjoy hearing each other share our thoughts on other subjects. I think people held back from that as much as they wanted to in order to try and accommodate people like yourself who didn't want to hear (read) any of it. Now everyone can get what they want without having to get it all if they don't wish to... which is a good thing. :)
The complaints mainly center around those who liked getting it all, and now that will be much harder. Hopefully they will be able to enjoy it anyway.

That's why I'm glad that there is a separate place for personal discussion amongst friends, I just hope that people use it. Sorry if I come off sounding like a jerk here, I don't mean to. I understand that many of you have become very good friends and that's great! Nothing like monster collector friends! I just thought that on the old board it took too much time to wade through the personal stuff to find the great discussions about monster items. I'm so glad that this board exists for all of us collectors to share info, ask questions and help each other out.
Anyway, sorry to get on a negative vibe here. That was never my intention. I'm already REALLY enjoying this board and I mean no harm! :P

No negative vibe whatsoever Shawn! You made a very valid point, and it is because of this new forum that folks like yourself will be able to zero in more easily on topics that truly interest them. That is exactly the point that you were making. And that is the point of this new forum too. Welcome Shawn to the UMA!

No, not at all. I agree with you 100%! You didn't sound like any sort of jerk. There was a lot of stuff I didn't care to read about on the old board, and mostly I didn't, but now conversation about topics I am interested in can flourish and so can topics I'm not interested in without me having to sort past them. Sorry if I came off sounding like I was bothered by your post, that wasn't the case by any means.

I could waste all night staring at your photos, Shawn. Just send me high-res versions and I'll blow them up to life size, turn them into wallpaper and plaster my walls with them. Instant monster room!
I see a lot of cool stuff, including the Shock Monster that Andy mentioned. That jumped out at me. But I'm most intrigued with your Castle Dracula and Mighty Monster statues. What are those knick knacks and where did they come from? Are they theme park souvenirs? I've never seen them before.

Ditto on the 'WOW' and Thank you for sharing those amazing photos!
Ditto on the 'Welcome to the UMA ',and yes please do share the backstory on those statues! Castle Dracula is in Niagra Falls right?
OR is it the Castle Dracula that USED to be in Florida (but sadly burned down).
Was it Daytona Beach? Myrtle Beach? I can't recall. I think it was Myrtle....
Quick story, circa 1986 or so...my family and I took a trip to Florida (Disneyworld) and I saw a panplet for a 'Castle Dracula' in the Hotel lobby. We made the treck to see it and drove up and down the street it was supposed to be on, only to find that it burned down just the WEEK BEFORE!
The reason we did not see it was that is was a cluttered blackened shell of a castle.
We did stop and I poked around a bit. Peering into the burned wreckage I could literally see gnarled arms and melted body husks...and swords. I wanted to climb in and start to pull out things...but WISELY my mother wouldn't let me.
(I would ended up crashing through the floor and sliding down to the 'ice cave' ala Daniel! LOL. I DID pick up a few programs...with burned edges and covered in soot. I kept that for years sadly remembering what I could have seen!
I may still have it somewhere...
ANYWAY...are those items from THAT Castle Dracula?

Yes that Castle Dracula Wolfman is one of the first things I keyed in on. I have Opened Zombo's Closet before. So I have seen all the goodies. My 2nd favorite items are all the Lakeside Monster games. ::) I have never seen the Frankie, Ghost and Drac. Of course I have the Wolfman and Have seen a couple of more of them on ebay. My Wolfman is Sealed So Willow and I have not played it. I need to find an open one. If anyone has extras on those Lakeside games give a howllll to Fake Wolfman. ;D HH

Yes .. the Castle Dracula and Mighty Monster statues are among my favorite monster collectibles. I was told that they were indeed sold at the theme parks. I scored a mint Castle Dracula (dracula) statue off of eBay last year for relatively cheap. I was surprised I got it for only $49.00! You will notice that the pose of the ceramic statue resembles the Aurora Dracula!

Did a little research and apparently the Castle Dracula I was thinking of was apparently in Panama City...
A request on Flicker read thusly:
Does anyone have any photos or recollections of Castle Dracula right on the beach in Panama City? It was a wax museum that looked like a big white gothic castle with black spires. There was a moat and a drawbridge, and a Frankenstein would wave a cars out front. My parents have a couple of photos of us horsing around the front of it. Inside was an arcade on the right, a diorama of a vampire pushing the lid up on a coffin in the center, and a gift shop on the left. You would buy a big token that would activate the turnstile in the arcade and walk down a long dark hallway, push open a secret door and enter the cavern-like corridors of the spooky, bloody wax museum. The path was a twisting maze past scene after scene of monsters, tortures, monster movie scenes, victims, executions, and sometimes TV shows. At the end there was something of a platform where you saw a light show with disco music and slides of KISS projected intermittantly. After that, one or two more scenes and then you exited into the gift shop.
When we went through, I held my Dad's hand the WHOLE TIIME. I was terriffied, but very interested. I kept thinking a Dracula was going to jump out at us at anytime. It burned down or was demolished around 1984-85.
Maybe we should start a WAX MUSEUM/ Monster Haunted Attraction thread ?
Terry? Can I? HUh? Can I? Please?

First off just to clarify something, I'm not the Zombo that does the Zombos Closet blog. I didn't even know about him until after I had adopted the moniker for my flickr account.
Which reminds me that if any of you are interested in seeing more photos of things monster and non monster related you should go check out my flickr account when you have some spare time. Just go to www.flickr.com and search by member name. You'll find me under ZOMBOPHOTO.
Now on to business...
There were actually a few different CASTLE DRACULA attractions. There was one at Universal Studios in California which had nothing to do with the others which were the CASTLE DRACULA Wax Museums in Panama City Beach, Florida and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Then there was also the CASTLE DRACULA museum in Niagara Falls, Ontario and in Wildwood, New Jersey. On a related note there is the HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN Wax Museums in Lake George, New York and Niagara Falls, Ontario. I've been collecting items from all of these attractions for awhile now and would be happy to post photos as soon as I get a new camera (mine died). In the meantime I'll post some scans of various brochures from these attractions soon.
Those CASTLE DRACULA statues are among my favorite items that I own. I love the Dracula one!!! That and the Wolfman are banks by the way. If you look at the first and second photos of my museum, you'll notice that the Saucerman is wearing a t shirt from the CASTLE DRACULA attraction at Universal Studios. Also in the sixth photo you can see a brochure from the HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN and a snow globe bottle from the CASTLE DRACULA at Universal Studios.
Until I post more photos about these attractions, here's this for your enjoyment...

... and also here is a rough image which I worked up in photoshop ( it still needs more work) that I think would make a great shirt!!

Now on to business...
There were actually a few different CASTLE DRACULA attractions. There was one at Universal Studios in California which had nothing to do with the others which were the CASTLE DRACULA Wax Museums in Panama City Beach, Florida and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Then there was also the CASTLE DRACULA museum in Niagara Falls, Ontario and in Wildwood, New Jersey. On a related note there is the HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN Wax Museums in Lake George, New York and Niagara Falls, Ontario. I've been collecting items from all of these attractions for awhile now and would be happy to post photos as soon as I get a new camera (mine died). In the meantime I'll post some scans of various brochures from these attractions soon.
Those CASTLE DRACULA statues are among my favorite items that I own. I love the Dracula one!!! That and the Wolfman are banks by the way. If you look at the first and second photos of my museum, you'll notice that the Saucerman is wearing a t shirt from the CASTLE DRACULA attraction at Universal Studios. Also in the sixth photo you can see a brochure from the HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN and a snow globe bottle from the CASTLE DRACULA at Universal Studios.
Until I post more photos about these attractions, here's this for your enjoyment...

... and also here is a rough image which I worked up in photoshop ( it still needs more work) that I think would make a great shirt!!

Oh no problem HH I just didn't want anyone to confuse us or to take any of his credit for what he does. I wasn't even sure if you were thinking that, it just reminded me of him and I thought I better clear that up!
And HH those Lakeside cannister games are great! If you can track them down they are worth having. The games themselves are rather simple and not much fun. Once they've been opened it's difficult to find them complete. My Dracula, or is it the Wolfman, is empty. I just love the containers!!

I think for most of us, the licensed figures, or at least the ones that more closely resemble the movie monsters, hold greater sway than the Mego monsters. The value of the castle is higher for most Mego collectors than it is for most monster collectors, so when they come up, monster collectors are usually the underbidders. The AHI's, Lincolns, and Remcos are of more interest than the Megos. I'm happy with my set of Mego monsters, but the variants and such don't interest me, yet they do with AHI's and such. Andy has all kinds of Mego and Lincoln figs, but I'm not even sure he owns a set of loose Megos (Andy?). Raymond likes them a lot, but how much does a boxed castle go for? A grand? More? There are other things i want more for that money. Oh, if I saw a BIN on eBay for one at $150, it would be mine ;D

I'm impressed how neat and organized your collections are! Mine is a dusty mess and stuck everywhere " even on the ceiling :)" in my little cottage/studio. When you find the time to clean everything? Do your wives clean them for you? Mine will not touch my stuff and after she threw out my original Jack Davis 6 foot Frank poster years ago and I really don't want her to .
My Mom used to bust up my stuff on her cleaning sprees back when I was a little monster kid too. They have no respect for the great art of monster collecting !
But I really got to invest in some glass cabinets someday .

Tom, I have a rule about cleaning a shelf a week, and just go around the room and keep it cleaned off. It's not a perfect plan, but seems to do fairly well. My monster room is also my office, and where my computer is... so I spend a lot of time in it every day.

I hate all of you though. I have neither the room nor the money to be starting another collection... but after seeing these pics, I have no choice. lol I think I'll go slow though. Maybe one little thing each week.

Cleaning is no problem, I just don't do it. I know I should but..... well I don't. The only time it kinda happens is when I'm reorganizing. Having glass cases helps but as you can see a lot of my stuff is just out in the open. And my computer is set up in my monster museum as well.

Professor: Is that really a bust of Pallus that your Raven is perched on? I still want to know who in the respective households dusts all this stuff? Or do cries of "Don't be touchin' my stuff!" echo off the walls, out the doors and down the streets?
"Meek"(done and dusted)
There is an amazing amount of covet-able THINGS on display...
MY Monster room is too small to swing a Pendulum, but hopefully bigger digs means a bigger Monster Room...at least that's what my wife tells me!
These pictures are OLD, and I am currently in the midst of a massive re-organization. Inspired by some of the collections I've seen in the group, I am MIXING my monsters. Yes, the shelves will contain groups of Monsters in sets...all the Mego monsters together, all my Auroras together, etc...
Formally they were all segregated as you'll see.
I have a LOT more items and even added a couple of more shelves but the wall paint job is the same, and the Moon and the stars STILL glow in the dark...
I'll take all new pics soon...but for now, here is what was...

I like the Mad Monster Castile and would surely buy a complete mint-in-box one for $500 if I had the opportunity. But $1,000-$1,500? Nah. There are too many other things I'd rather own. If it was an AHI monster castle, I'd snatch it up.
I own one solid-boxed set and one loose set of Mego Mad Monsters. I used to have a loose, naked red-haired Dracula. I sold him years ago. The money was too good to pass up (about $450). If it had been my only example of a rare AHI variation, I would never have parted with him. I also used to own a Kresge-carded Wolfman, but sold him. The card was rough and the bubble resealed. Bad condition + good money = SELL. But not if it had been an AHI or Lincoln!
I just can't see spending a lot on window-boxed Mad Monsters, Kresge cards, Lionrock cards, etc. They are cool to see in other people's collections, but I'm satisfied with my solid-boxed set. The solid boxes are the way I remember them from childhood, and are probably the most iconic and typical packaging style for this toy series. I might upgrade a couple of my solid boxes one day, but I don't expect to buy the more expensive package variations any time soon, unless a super deal falls in my lap or I stumble on a "hidden" auction.
As for the Castle, yeah, I'm sure I'll buy it one of these days, but it's low on my priority list.

On a side note, how many Red-Haired Draculas and Blue-Haired Frankensteins do you think are out there? I've seen several of the Draculas, but I'm only aware of two Blue-Haired Frankensteins.
I used to have a loose, naked red-haired Dracula. I sold him years ago. The money was too good to pass up (about $450).

Thanks Nekro Dave! The chandelier was something I found at a garage sale. I then went to Home Depot and bought 6 flicker flame bulbs for extra added realism! LOL!

And that's how all good collections begin - small. Never mind the space issues or even the money concerns, if the love is there .. it'll find a way. I know that sounds corny, but it's true. And whatever you do, don't fall victim to the comparison game. It doesn't matter who has what. All that matters is your personal enjoyment of the crap you do own and not obsessing over stuff that you don't. This is the secret to building a long and prosperous monster collection.

Cleaning is no problem, I just don't do it. I know I should but..... well I don't. The only time it kinda happens is when I'm reorganizing.
Zombo, I'm so glad you said this. Misery loves company because I also do not dust. I gave up a long time ago. Now I just reconcile my poor cleaning skills with telling everyone the dust makes it all look even more creepy! Did the Munsters ever dust anything? I think not. :)

Thanks for the advice! I hate to say it, but traditionally I've been VERY competitive in my collecting, lol. However with the monster stuff, there is just so much out there that I could get to make a collection look nice, even if I don't necessarily have anything rare or valuable, that I think I'll be satisfied. It's how it looks that's gonna be more important to me than anything else.
Btw, great point about the dust! I can see how it could totally enhance a monster collection (as opposed to something else). I remember when I was a kid, I had a few EC horror mags hanging about a door, sporting some old, nurtured spider webs. Man, they looked great like that until my mom stupidly knocked them down. I was furious. lol.

On the subject of the Mego monsters...Bobby is correct. I have had many loose and solid boxed ones over the years, and I have sold them. I had a Kresge Mummy and sold it. They just don't interest me as much as the AHI or Lincoln monsters. When I was a kid, I remember getting a couple mego monsters, and really didn't like any of them except the mummy - and he's still my favorite of the bunch. But I LOVED the AHI monsters - they were just more like the real monsters and to me had more play value. It's probably why I just don't go out of my way to collect them today.

The thing I love about collections is that we all have different focuses and interest. Of all the collections posted in this thread, we all have things that each other would love to have, and each one is unique in it's own way. There are some relatively small collections that didn't have a ton of money put into them that are very unique and special. Focus on what you love and can afford, and you can't go wrong. Years ago, I loved a lot of things but I didn't have the money for anything I really wanted, so I started collecting ceramic figures from Japan that have rabbit fur glued to them as decoration. Yes, it's an absurd thing to collect, but actually there are a lot of them and I had more fun looking for those things and collecting them... I'm not saying you should take up ceramic animal collecting, what I'm saying is your collection will only be as good as the fun you have putting it together, so make sure it's fun and not stress. There will always be someone with a bigger, better collection... well, maybe unless you are Bob Burns.

Dusting is fun time. That's when I play with my toys! If they just sit there and you don't dust them, you don't get to take them out and play with them. I especially love getting around to the batt op toys because I get to put batteries in them and fire them up!

HH, that box is an original cardboard shipping box for the Zoo-Piks Monster I-Scream Spoons from 1965. It's amazing!! It's definitely one of the highlights of my collection I think. I bought it years ago off e-bay. It's the thing that I'm sure "normal" people would think I'm crazy for spending so much money on. An empty cardboard box. But I love it. I need to put up better photos, because it's really cool.
I missed out on that drinking glass shipping case years ago. Man I really want that. It was for the Wolfman and the packaging art was incredible!

AS for my walls, they are bone white with a dusting of cobwebs when not obscured by bookcases and prints of old horror film posters.

Greetings
Ye gods...I go away for a weekend and my room has been given to someone else! But promptly returned.
Yes, the hand painted walls are mine...and more importantly, it glows in the dark!
Much rennovation going on currently, with new and greater photos to be added.
Eek! It's Meek!
Yes, that is a bust of Athena that Leonard (my wife named him) is perched on.
It's NOT an actual bust, but a prop head that I made for a Poe-Themed Halloween party many years ago.
Light enough to rest on my OLD monitor. My new monitor is too thin for nonsense like that.

Well, I took the pics so I might as well show them, I guess. We'll call this "humble beginnings". Nothing very exciting, mostly newer stuff I've picked up here and there along the way (I've spent the last few years actively trying NOT to start collecting monsters) and a few things that I got in the last few weeks. Perhaps in the years to come, I'll have something more impressive to show and you can all look back and say "To think I knew you when....."! hahaha

Thanks for the encouragement, guys. And don't worry, I've very proud of my collection overall! (I've got a whole 'nother room full of Japanese robots and kaiju, but that's not what we're here for. :) ) But, though I may have a couple neat things, I know I can't even compare to most of what's already been shown in this thread when it comes to monsters.
Toy Ranch, that case is full of more Jumbo Machinders, my main hobby. I've got about 80 of the damn things now. I won't clutter this board with it, but I just uploaded about 30 or so pics to my flickr page if you, or anyone, wants to take a gander at the rest of my stuff.

Gort is a 16" tall resin statue released last year by Rocket USA. It was limited to 1951 pieces. I got mine on ebay from a seller called "vending-machine1" for only $80 shipped, which is the best price I've seen. Cheapest one up now is $99+12shipping.. :(
Toy Ranch, cool to know you were on CJT back when. I don't remember your name from there. Was that before my time or under another moniker? My friends find it rather odd, but I never cared much for the vintage diecasts. Too clunky looking for my tastes.

Ugh. :P It's that dern Rob Zombie pseudo-Addams bear again.
Bob, I know we've discussed this subject before over at the old YG, but can you tell us again as to how Mr. Zombie ended up with a fraudulent Addams' Bear? How did he get duped into believing this was the real deal? Did you ever attempt to contact him regarding his faux bear?
BTW, Rob Zombie needs to enlist in this group in a big way. It's all too obvious that he's one of us.

A little History
The authentic Addams Family bear was the 'company mascot' of Ellis Merchantile (Hollywood's oldest and largest prop house- since the early 1900s). She stood in the Ellis lobby for years and was often photographed with clients, visitors, and the like. At Christmas, she sported a Santa hat, a tradition we continue.
This bear was also used in the 1991 film version of ADDAMS (in the treasure room/home movies scene with Julia and Lloyd), and also the disco favorite THANK GOD, IT'S FRIDAY! (in the bar scenes), plus dozens of other productions I don't know about, as the bear was a Hollywood rental prop for 30+ years. [Always interested in hearing about any bear spottings on TV/movies...!]
Ellis Props and Graphics was located on LaBrea in LA, a few blocks up from General Service Studios, where THE ADDAMS FAMILY was shot. Filmways (Addams production company) rented props from Ellis, and also had their own small prop department. I also found Wednesday Addams' tricycle in the Ellis stock, plus they also owned Grandpa Munster's electric chair from THE MUNSTERS, and Maxwell Smart's shoe phone from GET SMART (now both owned by other collectors). Ellis had a couple of million props(or more) in their inventory, many of which I got to play with because I knew one of the owners and was there behind the scenes. The bulk of the remaining inventory was sold at public auction out at Universal, sold in huge lots over several days.

As always Bob, Thanks for the photos and especially the knowledge. With out horror historians like you out there to set it straight, the legends just keep getting more and more muddled. I'd bet Zombie has heard by now that while he's got A polar bear, it is not THE polar bear.

This business about polar bear accuracy is astounding. One of the things I love about the squid community is its neverending desire to know everything in detail...
I've never seen polar bear accuracy taken to this level before.

Heh heh...I knew if I used that term, someone would get wiggly. "Squid" is a term that originated, as far as I know, in the special effects field. A squid is a really passionate fan of a certain thing or certain things in the science fiction/horror/fantasy world. Supposedly the term refers to the way a maniac fan will reach out and try to touch the things he/she admires; i.e., the "tentacles come out." When I first heard the term in the late 80's, it was derogatory in nature, but then gradually it became a badge of honor signifying one's love and devotion. People who once laughed and called other people squids came around to realizing that they themselves were squids and that it was nothing to be ashamed of.
I guess it is similar to "geek" but it tends to be applied specifically to people who love science fiction, horror and fantasy.
Squids of the world, untie!

Bob. Thanks for that fascinating tutorial on correctly identifying an Addams polar bear. The pictures and background info were amazing. Great stuff!
BTW, Santa gave me the Addams Family The Complete Serires dvd boxed set for Xmas. He did this because I'm a nice boy. I'm going to watch episode 49 'Christmas With The Addams Family' sometime today because your post has inspired me. Could you also recommend a definitive episode where one could view the Addams bear in detail? Any that stand out over the rest?
Thanks Bob and Happy Holidays!

YES.
I mean, case in point, this thread. You could win a bet with this thread, it is so thoroughly researched. A squid is serious about it, just because he/she/it loves being serious about it. It makes for some fun conversations!

I think if you are going to collect something like movie props, which can be a high-dollar field to be sure... you'd better do your homework and make sure you are actually buying what you think you are buying, because otherwise you're going to get taken... as obviously Rob Zombie has been...

Terry-
Thanks. This bear was used in the second season only. In the early first season, a much smaller, very beat-up looking bear was used. It, too, was a polar bear, but had been dyed dark brown, Lord knows why. Its arms stuck straight out, as if sleepwalking. I believe the cause of this was that it's arms had been broken and repaired and broken and repaired over time (pre-Addams use)- it just looked funky and unnatural. This first bear belonged to MGM (as a lot of the Addams props did-including the set), and they took it back in the first season for reasons unknown. Filmways wanted to buy it, but it wasn't for sale. A totem pole took its place in several episodes. The Addams production company was seeking a replacement bear and someone knew of this one, which was sitting in storage in Seattle. When taken, this bear was a world record Alaskan Polar Bear, or so they say. Apparently Ellis bought it at this point, or ended up with it, anyway. They had a huge taxidermy department.
(http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g107/backlotcharlie/addamsbeary.jpg)
There are several episodes (like most of the second season) that show this bear really well.
52- Fester goes On A Diet; There is a fabulous head to toe shot when Fester is exercising in the living room to Jack LaLayne that shows how big this thing really is.
54- Ophelia Finds Romance has alot of good shots, and Gomez impales the bear with a retractable sword at the 15:00 mark of the DVD.
53- the Great Treasure Hunt , and 62- Lurch's Little Helper (with Robby the Robot) both have decent backround shots.
The Best bear episode, though, is probably 62- The Addams Policy, where Fester burns the bear to a cinder with a blowtorch while trying to light Gomez's cigar. Obviously done in the darkroom with trick photography, it's cool because even while burning, you can see the bear's undisturbed shadow still on the wall! An interesting and funny sidenote, in the original script, the direction is given " NOTE: We of course never actually burn the bear..."
It is nice to have the luxury of these DVD's now. When I was originally doing my research, all I had was grainy, 20 year old VHS tapes that I had made off of UHF television!
BTW, cool rug, Bobby!

Wow!! That's incredible!
For some reason, for me at least, none of the pictures below the "Vampy" game one are showing up. I had to right click and select view picture to see them. However, I'm really glad I did. There's a classic case of "one of these things is not like the other" in there....a "Fraggle Rock" dvd!!! That's totally awesome.
Once again, amazing. Your collection is not only far bigger than I thought it was last year, it's far bigger than I thought it was last week!

Awesome stuff Morkai. I love that Vampi game. It's just like a game I had as a kid called "Beware The spider" except with scorpions.
I see a King Diamond tape in there too ;D

Once again, I love looking at your photos Morkai. You've got a very impressive collection of monster stuff, metal music and horror movies. I'm sure everyone here will enjoy looking though these photos.
Love The Reptile model, and what's that small Los Monstrous thing, a book?

Thanks for the comments guys!!! But I'm sure that my collection is very small at the moment and needs much more things :) hehehe.
Nekrodave, is you cannot see all the pics you can see here :
http://s26.photobucket.com/albums/c129/Morkai666/
In the left menu appears several albums, the lasts pics were taken from the one that said "Fotos Nueva Camara"
And Yessss, I'm a total maniac of Fraggle Rock :) And all the cartoons and TV shows what I saw when I was a child.
Dr.Terror, sure King Diamond Rules!!! I love Metal music, and King Diamond is one of my favourites.
Zombophoto which "Los Monstruos" are you talking about? In which pic appears? Now I not know what is... :(
Or maybe you are talking about "Super Monstruos" a card game?

Morkai, collecting is a journey, not a destination. It's not about what you have today so much as about what you will have tomorrow. And your collection is by no means small.
I think Zombophoto is talking about the plastic monster figures with the counter display box.

Yes Toyranch, I'm agree with you. Collect is a journey. I suppossed that in 10 years my collection will be much more bigger :)
I really Love Monsters, as you can see, I need more space, and I want make a Monster room too. Now is a Monster House, because all the house is full of Monsters in every place. The people that came here said that I'm crazy for it!!!
Mmmmm Zombophoto knows well the Super Monstruos PVC Box, We were talling about these figures the last day. I think that he is talking about a card game with the same name. This card game:

Super Monstruos card game was a very popular game here in Spain in the years 80's, and nowadays is a cult item for all the Monster Lovers.

Mmmmm Zombophoto knows well the Super Monstruos PVC Box, We were talling about these figures the last day. I think that he is talking about a card game with the same name. This card game:

I can try to find it, but is very difficult to find this card set. If I see anytime, be sure that I buy it :)
I have a lot of other Monster trading cards stuff from the years 70's and 80's. Tomorrow I upload more stuff. I have a really good collections called: Monstruos, Monstruos y Leyendas, Leyendas de Terror, Otros Mundos... etc.

Of course, I'm always open to trade, I prefer it :) Because there are a lot of things that I am looking for.
But be patient with this, because as I said before, is hard to find, is possible that one day appears. Don't worry, because I look all the days, and always I'm with a open eye. I have a radar with the Monster stuff hehehe.
Take a look to these pics:
These are a lot of Horror Trading cards albums:
(http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c129/Morkai666/DSC00377.jpg)
And this is my favourite of all... Monstruos. I made this collection in 1986 with 10 years old :)

But still there are more rare albums that I want and I haven't: Galería de Monstruos, Horribles Familias, Hippy Monsters and Choconstein. Someday will be mine...

The sequel to the Dark Crystal is slated for (I think) a 2009 release. Everyone involved with the original film are working in the same capacities for this one, except of course for dear Jim. In his directorial stead, they have hired Genndy Tartakovsky, he of Samurai Jack, Dexter's Laboratory, etc. Brian Froud is back for designs/conceptual work, Trevor Jones for the score, the voice actors for Aughra, Jen, Kira, etc... everybody's on board. Might be incredibly cool. It's one of my favorite films, always will be, so I would love to see how they follow it up.

MMM, Paul Naschy is like God for the HorrorManiacs in Spain, but there are not toys, I only know a Model Kit from the movie "Licántropo, el asesino de la luna llena" but is very rare and hard to find. I have all his Horror Movies and some posters, one is singed by the own Naschy. I also have the recent comic book based in "El retorno del Hombre Lobo" movie, but nothing more.
Paul Naschy must have his own action figure, I hope someday...

That's if they ever get it off the ground. No one ever seems to have a definitive answer when/if this is coming out. The latest rumor I heard is a DTV release which while i'll still buy/enjoy, I really want to see it on the big screen...

Dr.Terror, sure King Diamond Rules!!! I love Metal music, and King Diamond is one of my favourites.
King Diamond rules, but Merciful Fate reigned supreme! I was a big metal head in my day. Slayer, Venom, Possessed, Exodus, etc. were all part of my music library in the late 80s. I was a head banger myself. I played in a band called Vile. We made it as far as being featured in Creem Metal magazine as well as a nice gig with Wendy O Williams at First Avenue here in Mpls. Almost snagged a deal with Metal Blade records too. Then I went and got married. Done. Game over. ;D
Nice collection BTW Mokai!

I did indeed. My band Vile was the warm up act. We also played with the Misfits. Unfortunately, I don't have any pics, but I think some of my old friends do. I'll have to go see what I can come up with. I know there's some pics out there that I wouldn't dare share! I'm talking about pics that could yield a lot of blackmail power should they fall into the wrong hands. ;D

Great to see a lot of people here is or was Metalhead!!!
Of course, Mercyful Fate likes me too!!! I have seen 3 times and other 3 times to King Diamond. The last show was great!!!
My favourite Mercyful Fate's album is: "Don't Break the Oath" and my favourite King Diamond is: "The Eye", I prefer King Diamond, because is more theatral and the lyrics concepts are more near to Horror/Ghost Stories... etc. I prefer the sories in King Diamond Lyrics.
Terry and Wendy Williams!!!!!! GREAT!!! hehehe. Your musical tastes was great!!! Expecially love Possessed :) But my favourites of all the times are Bathory :)

Wendy O! Haven't heard that name in a while. Not sure I could find it, but I used to have a photo of an illustration I did of her promoting a friend's record store. He had her sign it at one of her concerts.

For those who enjoy with the Super Monstruos card Set, here is the rare trading-card collection in which were based later the Super Monstruos cards. The number 31 called "El carroñero" was almost impossible to find and those who get it, can trade in the shop or in the place where bought the cards for a Monster T Shirt, a space vehicle, a Robot or several more things, depends the city and the area.
Here is a pic of a boy that in the years 80's get "The Carroñero" and changed it for this cool shirt...

And here is the complete set.
(http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c129/Morkai666/MonstruosDiabolicos.jpg)
Monstruos Diabolicos was the most rare and hard to find collection of Monster Cards. There were 2 collections, the first one was form the earlies 80's and the second Re-edition was from the latests 80, earlys 90's. There were the same cards.

Yes, hehehe, the number 21 is the Langdon Zombie, here called "La Máscara". The authors of these "cromos" (Cromos is the word that we used here to said trading cards) have copy from every place. This collection rules!!! I remember when I was a child in the 80's, all the kids were crazy for these cromos.

Hehehe, yes the squirm guy is the 57 "El agusanado" Squirm = Gusano :) But all the cards are copies from everyplace. The Bloody Darth Vader have triumph!!! I remember when I was a child this cromo was a cult, because all the people loved Star Wars in that moment, and the same for ET, the Extraterrestial. But there are more copies!!! take a look to the number 27 "Dragón Tauro", is taken from "Curse of the demon" movie, and the 69 "La bruja" (The witch), is the same witch created for Harryhausen a lot of years ago in his fairytales Stop Motion animations. There are a lot of cards that are copies of another spanish collection called "Otros Mundos", later I upload scans. Otros Mundos it was together with "Monstruos" my 2 favourites Trading Cards collections of the 80's. There are very speciall for me, because I was 8 years old with "Otros Mundos" and 10 years old with "Monstruos". I remember that I was obsessed with these collections.

Very cool, thanks for the link, Dan. It's great to see the detailed scans of these. These cards are very representative of what I love about monster toys; the cool, artistically off-kilter renderings of these monsters remind me of the AHI monster packaging as well as lots of other 60's items. Fun stuff.

Definitely some awesome collections! I'm currently working on finishing my basement to display my meager little collection. Any Myspacers are welcome to check out my page, I've recently gone through and cataloged most of my stuff:

What would you like on your tombstone? I have a Dracula one of these as well, does anyone know if there was a Wolfman, Bride, Frankenstein monster or Creature?

Various views of our bedroom; you have to love a woman who'll let you do this to a room! I painted it up to look a little tavern-like, adding cracks and stones, etc. At any rate, here ya go--
First, the Classic Monsters! Sideshows (apologies to some of youse guys!) on the top two shelves, then some Megos, AHIs, etc... and of course, my UMA buttons proudly displayed to the lower left:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0183.jpg)
Another angle, and the Haunted Mansion figures on the smaller bottom shelf:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0185.jpg)
The Nightmare Before Christmas collection to the left of the Universal shelf (that's a Twelve Faces of Jack, #68, signed by Tim Burton, to the right):
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0174.jpg)
The smaller set of Monster shelves, opposite the Universal shelf. Zombie shelf at bottom, Kong at the top. It made sense to me... and yes, Edward Scissorhands fell over. The guy's got scissors for hands, give 'im a break. Oh, and below, Dr. Pretorius presides over the Franklin Mint Universal Monsters knife set:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0187.jpg)
The Sleepy Hollow shelf, with some Disney and some Burton... the Horseman model kit (far left) is holding Burton's head:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0178.jpg)
Then the model shelf, mostly Auroras, most 70's Glow, a few Monogram reissues... and some Aliens:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0179.jpg)
Eh, I wish I had the money and room to get more deeply into the 60's era of monster toys, but such is my fate. I'm sure digging what I HAVE collected!

Thanks for the nice words, guys. I suppose the main reason I have them so neatly presented is that I wouldn't be ALLOWED to show them any other way... my wife would simply tear it down!
Morkai, nice eagle eye there... I only have a few PuppetMaster things, but I've been a fan of Charles and Richard Band's productions since the days of Empire.
Anyway, it's nice to hear compliments on my little collection from the Big Guys in here, hahah!

Just an aside here, regarding displaying our collections...
Now I know the figures in these pics aren't Universal Monsters, but the way I lit them is what I wanted to show:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0191.jpg)
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/IMG_0177.jpg)
A 9v ('wall-wart') power adapter, some speaker wire, a handful of .25c LEDs and resistors, and a soldering iron. Makes the shelf come to life... and I hope to do it to my Universal Monster shelves soon. Easy peasy, and fun to aim and set up.
What's really nice is the UV/blacklight LEDs (okay, they're more than .25c, sorry) worked perfectly for the Haunted Mansion ghosts because they're painted with UV paint.
At any rate, don't mean to derail the thread, but thought some input on how we display our things couldn't hurt. :-)

Holy SPIT Mike....
Those are beautiful! No apologies necessary...thanks for sharing that! Man I love that. You recreated the look of the ride effortlessly.
Please tell me more. Are they on a free shelf (wall shelf) or part of another display?
Love the back lighting.

"Please tell me more. Are they on a free shelf (wall shelf) or part of another display?"
They're on their own shelf, but just below the three Universal Monster shelves in the previous pics (you can see them if you hop back up to the original pics). So they are part of the larger display, I'd say.
The LED set up is pretty simple. I made a little diagram on Paint to give you the main idea:
(http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x21/Paaaaaaaah/monsters/led.jpg)
The value of the resistors depends on the LEDs used; in my case, they're all 220 ohm, one per LED, and the whole thing is in parallel. There are LED/resistor calculators online, you just input the values of your LED and your source voltage (9v in my case), and how many LEDs you want to use, and it comes up with the correct resistor values, plus a few options for wiring up. Such as:
http://led.linear1.org/led.wiz
It may seem daunting to some, but it is really easy once you start playing with it.
Of course, it's not for everybody, and certainly won't be a quick set up for larger displays... but otherwise, LEDs are cheaper, use less energy to get far more candlepower (for their size), come in a million colors and brightness values, and are just plain cool for lighting your monsters!
Sorry (again) if this derails the thread, maybe it should be moved somewhere else...? But ya DID ask me to tell you more, haha! Hope this is a fun idea for you.

Alright...
I took some pictures last night of my updated Monster Room. Lots of stuff added and I opened a lot of my items. It really makes room for a lot more stuff to get rid of those bulky bubble cards! LOL
Also, I made the decision (inspired by some collections here) to mix up my monsters...grouped by type instead of by specific monster. It really looks great and there's SO much more to look at now.

How long?
Egads...it seems a lifetime. Much of it was from my childhood...but honestly, the BULK of my humble collection was aquired starting in 1987.
When my LOVE of MONSTERS flaired back into high gear. I just graduatued High School, had a steady girlfriend and an acting scholarship to a college! I was set.
What else was there to do but collect monsters?

Last week I cleaned so now I feel better about showing my monster apartment. My wife is great and a monster kid too so she lets me decorate most of the apartment, our bedroom and kitchen are off limits though. She does wish that I would stop adding to the collection as she wants to get a house and sings to me her song " You can't build a house out of action figures"...she's so amusing.

Last week I cleaned so now I feel better about showing my monster apartment. My wife is great and a monster kid too so she lets me decorate most of the apartment, our bedroom and kitchen are off limits though. She does wish that I would stop adding to the collection as she wants to get a house and sings to me her song " You can't build a house out of action figures"...she's so amusing.

Thanks for the kind words, I love your collection as well.
I bought my wife the Ideal Mini Monsters set for Christmas and the Frankie is hers from years ago and despite having the set she refuses to part with her original Frankie.
Congratulations on scoring the game and the FMOF poster.

Hi Greggory--NICE layout!
Couple of quick questions though--are your movie posters and lobbies all original (just curious), and even more specifically, been looking at securing different pieces for "The Creeping Flesh", and in the 2nd photo from your post of your digs, next to the door on the left hand side appears to be some small image (in red) from said film.
Can you please tell me what that is exactly? Is it from a pressbook or something maybe?
Your living situation is truly something to behold-well done!!

Only 7 pieces are repro's the rest are the real thing. The Creeping Flesh piece is something I colored in photoshop from the ad mat and printed out. I figured it would keep me happy until I finally got the poster, but alas it's always out of my reach.

WOW!
Those are some amazing collections!
Count...that is wonderful. Some real gems there....(I'm very envious of the 'Strange' Frankenstei masks....and of course...Kharis!)
That Frankenstein 'clown' mask...any stories behind that? Is that rare?
I ask, because there's a costume shop in Austin that has had that mask on sale for YEARS! I see it everytime I go in, and I just can't bring myself to buy it because it looks so...well...goofy.
But I HAVE considered buying it and giving it a proper paintjob.
It's an odd piece to be sure.

Gregory...
Amazing stuff...thanks for the post! There's just so much to see...my eyes can hardly take it all in.
That Phibes display...(the one with the dancing girl) is from the films's original release?
It's an astonishing display.
Mostly because it's a piece based on a old STAG film watched by one of the victim characters (Dr. Longstreet) before he is murdered by Phibes...(drained of blood).
It's an odd choice to make a display to promote the film from that image.
Still, a half naked dancer with a snake is bound to get attention...so..yeah, I guess I can see it.
Thanks

General, you have a most amazing collection (as do others here!!) - and thank you for posting them - but a shot of your full Mummy display case is nowhere to be found, just a portion of it off to the side in one pic, :'( obviously to torture, tantalize and tease those who prefer Kharis over Im Ho Tep...
Sacrilege! Sacrilege!!

Andy the green Glenn Strange is a Savage Eye Frankenstein mask that I did a little makeover on...I've always dug the cover art with the green Glenn so I tried to emulate that as best I could.
Thanks Dr. T for the kudos on the repainted Lugosi - picked that one up from our very own Toyranch and repainted it to complete my full-on Lugosi ensemble for this past Halloween season.....

General, you have a most amazing collection (as do others here!!) - and thank you for posting them - but a shot of your full Mummy display case is nowhere to be found, just a portion of it off to the side in one pic, :'( obviously to torture, tantalize and tease those who prefer Kharis over Im Ho Tep...
Sacrilege! Sacrilege!!
Any chance of a photo redemption?!?
At ease soldier. I will post your requested photos sometime later today. BUT REMEMBER! You will not remember what I show you, and yet I shall awaken memories of love... and crime... and death...

HA! But you forget I only have one good eye - and as such, can only be half-hypnotized by your mystic mumbo-jumbo at best...

I may not remember what you've shown me, but I will definitely remember to thank you for taking the time to post these... even with my lack of depth perception (it's the one eye, y'know?) I can see that's a case only a mummy could love... (how many bad puns can we work into a post anyway?)
If you don't mind, I have some questions if you have the time (I'll PM) - there's some treasure in there I've never laid an eye on!

Terry, Is that a Mummy bubble pen? Cool, I thought there was only Drac, and Frank looks like there was a mummy and probably a Wolfman too. Could you possibly get a close up shot of him, I'd like to see the head sculpt.

Yeah, kinda wish i waited to collect Soaky's AFTER ebay came around. I completed my set by the early 90's when they sold for much more money on average. I even bought a Mr Magoo that was still full of the soap, just so i could take the cap off and smell it from time to time...GREAT memories. NICE COLLECTION, Congrats!

Yes, I love that toy because he has such a sad face and does a funny dance. He makes me laugh. And most of those battery toys stand still and move, but he moves around like the Marx Frankenstein, but even better. He is not rare or valuable, but still one of my favorites. :)

Is true!!! the face is very sad, but looks very funny with those strange clothes, and the purple colour. When I saw it I said... "This Frankenstein rules!!!!" And still I have not seen his dance!!! I hope buy battery soon for laugh :)

They're right. You have been busy. I see in this photo just above frankenstein's head the art for the movie MARK OF THE ASTRO-ZOMBIES. Our own Robert Taylor (typhooforme) plays 2 roles in that movie. He is the voice of Dr. DeMarco's severed haed and also an almost victim of the aleins.

Those mini Colorform Aliens were made by Archie McPhee in the 90's. They made a lot of them so I'm sure there are still plenty around. A lot of people who have them don't know they are "Colorform Aliens" though, as they were not sold as such (copyrights and all). They don't have them anymore, but I saw some other cool stuff on their website to start a thread about :D

Did you say "speaking of Tim Keegan"? Here's a shot of Timmy boy paying visit yesterday to Castle Famous! I'm in the middle and Paul Koloc is on the right. Tim's currently freezing his arse off here in Mpls as I type this post!
He enjoyed his visit here, and upon leaving Castle Famous he was frisked from head to toe. Had to make sure nothing was heading back to sunny LA without proper permission! :D

I'm afraid after visiting Castle Famous last week and living in the shadow of Dr. Shocker's House of Horrors, my stuff looks pretty bland by comparison. But hey, it's all great fun to look at and I love living amongst the monsters!
I get a lot of enjoyment out of those FM cover paintings. Wish they were originals too!
If anyone's in or coming to L.A., you're always invited to drop by.

I think it would be safe to say that almost all of us are Gogos fans here. My wife was actually going to get me some prints from his site for Christmas but Microsoft came up with some kind of b/s warning about the site, so she didn't get any. She didn't tell me 'til afterwards......What!?!?? F Microsoft get me the prints!!!!! Anyways, another great collection, I really need to quit adding to mine and get my basement ready for the display.

LOL.....Yes Terry my friend, this is Larry New from the dark ages. Been hanging around, here and there. Sadly some of my ultra high-end Universal pieces had to go on the auction block a few years ago when my wife lost her job. Hurt like heck to lose my AHI collection but in the end they are just toys and family comes first. Slowly building back up. Glad to be back amongst family here!

I'm not much of a toy collector or mask collector--I'm more of a "stuff" collector. Much of this has been seen in my flickr pics, where there are several pictures from the basement Dungeon, but here are 3 shots down the hall in my little Movie Room--my version of Ackermuseum type mixture of movie props, models, and various memorabilia.
Metropolis robotrix head and hand were Forry's--
(http://www.geocities.com/marcusfayne/movieroomaaa.jpg)
That KRAKATIT poster is from the old Ackermuseum--KONG and TARZAN posters are just repros. At very bottom right, lying flat, is a life mask of Willis O'Brien!
(http://www.geocities.com/marcusfayne/movieroomb.jpg)
Most of the stuff on the shelving at left is from the Ackermuseum, but the heads on top are familiar modern ones I picked up in recent years--

My "movie room" is too small to view movies in--this is the house I grew up in, and (as has often been said by many before me) I was surprised at how small the house had become when I moved back here. The Movie Room is just part of the display area--I have another small room that is all Vincent Price, and then the basement Dungeon, which is about 3 times the size of each of the small upstairs rooms. All in all, still not a huge space.
Hoops & Yoyo are big movie fans, too, ya know! I just got from Cuz Sara (vpdogjoe) a talking Hoops & Yoyo on a sofa, and they give out with various wise remarks about pirate movies and popcorn. They crack me up.

You're very lucky Robert, to be living in the house you grew up in. This must make your connection to your monster kid past all the stronger being that you are in the same environment where you spent your formative years developing the passion you continue to nurture to this day. I live about 60 miles from where i grew up and occasionally take a drive in to haunt my old neighborhood. Nobody i know still lives there today and my old house has undergone so many extensions and changes [as have all the houses around it] that i wouldn't even want to go in... I started the Christmas '62 thread a while back on this site and every time i see that pic of a perfect Christmas morning i wish i could go back to that moment in time, if only long enough to feel the sun streaming in the big picture window on my face.
Wonderful collection you have there! Keep enjoying every minute of your monster past, present and future in the family homestead,

Has anyone installed or considered a secret entrance to their monster room? Hidden stairs behind the bookcase, secret button under the Shakespeare bust? Removable eyes in the portrait?

I see you have one of the Cheit Creatures ( Mike that's the one in the last pic you were asking about) and it looks like yours is doing the same thing my two did (I bought an extra that I'll sell someday), some of the plates are peeling upwards.
I also see that I'm not the only one who collects Marx Creatures in different colors. Looks like you have 12? I think I'm up to 14. I was doing the same thing with those large blow molded Mexican Creatures for awhile. Got up to 8 or 9.
In the second photo down on the second shelf what's that Creature to the right of the patch that has a little nameplate in front of it? Looks really cool.
Oh and I just noticed that you have the same Universal Studios Orlando Monsters Cafe pin that I have. Do you have any other stuff from there?
Keep the photos coming... ;D

Yes, that is my Chiet Pet... I talked with Adam and he told me to use a hot glue gun and glue them down. I'm just to lazy to do it.

Those are some great rooms!
All of that 80's -90's 2000's splatter stuff in one place was amazing.
Brian, great creature stuff!

Those monochromatic Super Monstruos are really interesting. I guess you have to open the bag to find out which monster you have? And that Super Diabolics castle looks really cool. Does it do anything?

Yes those Super Monstruos are in surprise bags, is really cool open the bag and find the monster in different colours :)
The Super Diabolics Castle is similar to the Greyskull castle of the Masters of the Universe, when I return to my home in a days I will take more pics of the castle in back, because have several cool things. The Super Diabolics Airgam Boys are really cool too. They are the enemys of the Super Fantastics that are like superheroes fakes of Batman, Spiderman... There are one Super Diabolic that is like the Creature from the Black lagoon :) Take a look to this spanish forum for see pics of the Airgam Comics team: Super fantastics and Super Diabolics...

Yep, that's my cousin Sara! Fortunately she lives just up the road, so I can go visit and sit there and covet her collection any time i want. The pressbook wall is amazing--I never thought to see that many Vincent Price pressbooks in my life, and all in one place. They're wonderful. Keep up the good work, cuz! You know, gang, she didn't used to collecti movie memorabilia...but I gave her a wink and a nudge, and....I've created a MONSTER!

OK, here are some pics of my bachelor pad. I am 28, so I do not have many older collectibles. Constructive criticism and donations are always welcome. ;)
Every house needs a suit of armor. Every house I've ever seen has armor (Munsters, Addams Family, Rob Zombie). Why...I don't know?
This is the library/living room with some close ups of the horror books:

Hey fryinpan1- I like your suit of armour alot. Great!
Looks very nice...usually you see those gaudy Mexico-made one piece tin suits, but yours appears very intricately made and realistic.
What exactly is it?

Thanks! It is full-scale authentic reproduction armor with aluminum plates. About 6 feet tall (27 1/2 x 15 3/4 x 71"h). That particular one is usually available on Ebay.

Hey Fryinpan,
I see you have a print of Frazetta's unused piece he did for the "From Dusk 'Til Dawn" film, why they went with the other poster art is beyond me :-\
Where'd you snag that bad boy?
Thanks,

It is available at:

Print No.147
Frazetta has created some great artwork. Another one of my favorites is the Wolfman.

Cool! Thanks!
It's been awhile since I've visited Frank's site, and I don't remember all of those prints being available the last time I was there.
Such an amazing body of work, and I'd agree his Wolfman piece is pretty tight!
To get back on topic, I am thoroughly floored and amazed by all of the Monster rooms folks have posted here.
Unfortunately, there's no green emoticons to show how envious I am! ;D

Harry, you are correct, and he's licensed the image to a comic book company who is producing a one shot comic based on the painting, which is also the cover. Last I heard it is due out near Halloween.

My Universal Classics collection is still in its early stages but I figured I'd share what I've got:

(http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c84/lblambert/Collection/Collection14.jpg)
(http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c84/lblambert/Collection/Collection11.jpg)
(the old Topstone Frankenstein mask is my first ever piece, dating back to my childhood...have a lot of trick-or-treating memories with that mask)
(http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c84/lblambert/Collection/Collection08.jpg)
(http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c84/lblambert/Collection/Collection23.jpg)
(This is my most treasured item...these cufflinks belonged to Boris Karloff and were donated by Sara to a charity auction back in '95)
And some other items in my collection:

Beautiful! Each time I've seen that Karloff board game on Ebay by itself, I never want to pay the going rate for it. Then I see it in someone's collection and kick myself for not getting it. It looks so good surrounded by other monster stuff.
What's the story with the Mortician's Powder? Now that's not something you see in every collection!

Thank you for the kind words everyone. While not the massive room-sized collection that some members have, I was always kinda forced to keep my goodies to a managable size, being a former apartment dweller and all.
Regarding NekroDave's question, I got this little ditty while attending a funeral home auction about 10-12 years ago. Seems they dumped all the old stuff and bought all new goodies. Shortly thereafter there was a rift in the ownership, bills weren't paid, and the whole place went down the tubes. I was down in the creepy basement w/ the owner (whom I befriended that afternoon) and literally tripped over this vintage tin. The old codger said "put it in your pocket kid, before the auctioneer tries to sell that too!"...so I did and it now proudly sits in my collection. Here's a better image.

Hi to all the people again!!!
I return with my new Monster toys!!!
I have get one of the most difficult Monster toys of Spain. This is the complete set in nice condition of "Las mil caras del Monstruo". Is from 1968-69, Airgam Toys. Actually this set is almost imposible to find, the most difficult of all the Airgam toys. This set in the small one, because there are another (imposible to find nowadays), with more stuff (a couple of masks, a claw and a skull with black hair).
(http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c129/Morkai666/Fotos%20nueva%20camara/LasmilcarasdelMonstruocompleto.jpg)
And here a pic of all the Airgam sets that I have together. Andy, one box of "Fantasmas a Gogo" is for you :-) You know :-)

I have get one of the most difficult Monster toys of Spain. This is the complete set in nice condition of "Las mil caras del Monstruo". Is from 1968-69, Airgam Toys. Actually this set is almost imposible to find, the most difficult of all the Airgam toys. This set in the small one, because there are another (imposible to find nowadays), with more stuff (a couple of masks, a claw and a skull with black hair).

This isn't a display I have in my monster room, actually it's a pile of boxes in a cabinet in my monster room, but I finally dragged all my kid's Halloween costumes out and photo'd them. I've been picking them up inexpensively for years. I haven't focused on obtaining high grade pieces, just picking some up for fun. A few I've paid more for...
Anyway, here's a link to a slideshow of them.

This one is interesting. It's a witch, but it's called "Bride of Frankenstein."

I suppose you'd be pissed off as well if you had a black cat clawing your head like that. Perhaps her eyesight was poor and instead of grabbing her veil she grabbed yon yowling feline and jammed it on her head.

Here is most of the monster items I own. Small potatoes compared to folks here, but love having it surround the computer area in our workroom. My main collection is classical music cds (and now returning to vinyl) and my wife and I dabble in Disney collectables. Lots of fun, but I need to get more "old school" items to put between the newer items. Neat thing is, almost all of my monster collection that I do have is gifts from friends. They know I like the stuff so they continue to pick me up pieces from time to time. Have to say that I enjoy looking at other folks stuff more than mine. Keep the pics coming folks.

Close but not quite right. Rattles the Snakeman's mask was one very large coiled up snake and very green in color as was the costume which had a big snake ready to strike across the chest. I got to wear my Brother's hand-me-down costumes. The other one was a Vampire Bat with the giant bat flying out of an erupting volcano printed across the front.
Talk about a bat outta Hell . . .

I don't have a dedicated monster room --darn it. But there are a few shelves of my new studio devoted to some of my favorite creeps -- Creature form the Black Lagoon and Frankenstein -- and a fair number of other monster model kits on display. Otherwise it's mostly my comics room. Pics here: www.terrybeatty.blogspot.com

Thanks. Yup -- that's a build-up of an original Aurora Penguin. I lucked into TWO sealed copies at a good price from a flea market dealer some years ago. One box was half crushed, so I opened it (on-line with some fellow model maniacs, so they could share in the releasing of the vintage Aurora aroma), built the kit and shored up the inside of the box for display. Sold the other one to a Batman collector for the price I'd paid for the two of 'em (he was thrilled with the deal). Voila -- ultra rare Aurora kit for free.

Man, I LOVE those old masks and vinyl costumes...and those boxes!
I only have the Ben Cooper Mummy (Kharis) mask and costume in box. LOVE that blue box with the glow in the dark Monsters...AND a couple of Frankenstein faces from the same set. No box, no costumes...just the mask. They are colored differently, (one lighter and greenish yellow, and the other dark green.)
Thanks for sharing those everyone! Keep it up!

Rob
The centaur (with female rider) is a garage kit sculpted by former Disney sculptor Jack Hood (produced by son Raven) -- brought home from an early Wonderfest. One of these days I might actually get around to painting the thing. "The Devil's Apprentice" is a garage kit as well. The female figure with upraised arm is "Cylena, Queen of the Night" -- it's a cold cast porcelain figure made by the long gone kit company, Screamin'. There's also a little Julius Caesar figure and a small scale copy of the Venus De Milo.

This is very cool--it brings to mind other possibilities--tiny overturned cars in a tarantula cage, for instance, or a little workmen's "cage" with mini people in it, lowered halfway down in a tank with pet scorpions!

That is some terrific artwork on those Tales from the Cryptkeeper cards. Just found out that they are from a company called Ace. I managed to win one on eBay just a few minutes ago for $4.99 mint on a perfect card. It's always worth dropping by the UMA.

I wish I would have seen that set. I just found another really nice card that I snatched up ( I know, I'm hopeless ) for $4.99 but by the time you add in shipping, at this rate the set is going to cost me $80.00. Hopefully a lot comes up. These are the two I won Chris. They look like really nice cards and with Halloween quickly approaching, it's perfect timing for these little guys.

You're absolutely right, they look fantastic and I'm really glad that you took the time to post them. I sought out five of them last night ( three from the same seller to help save on shipping ) and I'm happy to say that Zombie is one of them. Your set looks great all grouped like that. My only wish is that the cards were individual to each character instead of generic across the board but still, the cards look spooky with the cryptkeeper ( love the ways his hands are posed), the dark lightening filled sky along with a castle in the background. You can't go wrong for 50 bucks.

You'll find that ours tastes vary into many other categories around here. Might I say that is an incredible Ultraman collection. I have a Giant Robot and a small Ultraman flying in my monster room. OK, so they're only hanging by fishing string. How did you ever get autographs of the actors from the Science Patrol? That is what I'm catching glimses of, right?

A lot of the figures are from Bandai. There are a few Gameras in there, so not sure which one you are referring to.
I've been collecting the japanese stuff since I was about 10 (I'm *ahem* 48 now) so many years of amassing stuff.
I love the Mogera figure from The Mysterians. Bandai did that one about 10 years ago and I was surprised they did!

I've done some shows and other projects with Tsuburaya Productions, the company that makes Ultraman, so I've been lucky to get a lot of stuff from them.
The Science Patrol autographs is just one. I was lucky enough to meet Hiroko Sakurai, who played Fuji (the female member of the Science Patrol) and she signed the pictures. REALLY nice.
Hoping to go to Japan with a couple friends next year. Should be a blast!

Hi Morkai, it's worth emailing the sellers sometimes, as they will often make an exception with postage abroad.

The times that I have seen Mr Barlow, I never get it because the sellers said that they don't send to Spain.
I'm trying again write to Death Studios for buy the Mr Barlow's Blue mask, but this is my 4 time hehehe, perhaps this time I have good luck :) But I hope the same of always: "Sorry we not ship to Spain" :(

Sure if any of you are in the Old Bridge area of NJ LMK and we will set up a visit and a game :)
If you look at the 5 th page of this post you will see pics of my main Monster collection in my Fortress of Solitude.

NICELY DONE! Tons of cool stuff and all very WELL LIT! Love the bluish green tint to everything! Gives it all a magical quality. Is the giant Jack Davis Franky poster an original? Also very reassuring to See the Zacherley poster on display... I saved my son's Iron Giant from destruction while he was still too young to care and i believe its the same one you have. I'll give it back to him some day when he's old enough to really appreciate it. Enjoy [like you need ME to tell you this] your room!

I got this one from UMA member , actor ,and fellow collector extradinare Dan Robuck. Thanks once again Dan for getting this copy for me !
The room would not be complete with out our old Pal Zach in the room..He gave that mini poster to me years ago at Chiller. What a great guy !

Yes, and there's a chance he might be displaying a copy of his original 6 ft Famous Monsters Zacherley poster during his hosting duties. At least that is what he intended to do... Truth be known, Zach called me right after filming his insert bits for the upcoming special. He said they informed him upon arrival that his part would be less than originally anticipated and while Zach had prepared a whole slew of bits, [including running for president] he was instead handed a script of what they wanted him to do and over the course of 3 or 4 break ins he probably will only be seen about 5 minutes, all total. Our only hope is that the ratings are high and they want him back for a future broadcast of Chiller Theatre. I strongly urge all members who are able to view this special on the 25th to write the station's website and tell them to turn the show back over to Zach on a weekly basis with full blown skits by the Cool Ghoul and ONLY the Cool Ghoul!

Tom,
My dad and I were to see ELP back in '79 at the Montreal Forum. I got the flu so could not go, but he said it was an awesome show. Still kicking myself over this one.
The Haunted mansion record my wife had as a kid She listened to it over and over and over. A friend of ours tracked us down a copy. We are going to relisten to it as a family in the coming days leading up to Halloween on my recent purchase of a turntable. Ron Howard I believe was one of the voices on it. Yes?
I have an old radio and my dad enjoys restoing them, so they always catch my eye. It is an old Philco:

And FWIW, my wife and I just passed our 16th together.....and she has every right to trade me in at this point. ;)

I still most of the things I had in my old room.
The Doc poster was for the Batam Book paperback series not the Ely movie.
The movie was pretty bad but campy fun.. It was not a pilot for a TV series but the first of a movie franchise much like James Bond. It a shame they did not do a better movie.
I was talking to Micheal " Batman movies producer "Ursan around last Christmas time and he told me that he is developing a new Doc movie "modernised of course :(" and a new Shadow movie.
I hope they do a Good job.

This is because I'm from Spain, and those are spanish editions, here arrived with the name "Atmosfear" and In USA and other countries "Nightmare".

I am so impressed!
I'm also amazed by the head statues and the mask. What incredible work! Adam, your work table - are you a professional artist? Or is that your hobby/monster table? I have a table like that here, too. Only instead of cleaning it up I just put project after project on top. I finish the projects, but I never clean up afterwards.

I don't have a set-up monster "museum" yet because I'm adding another room. So what I have now is a BIG mess. Actually, items are packed away to be displayed later -I hope I live long enough to finish this ;D
I don't collect masks in general because I find them too fragile. They seem to break down over time and I know little of preservation. However, my favorite monster, hands down, is the Glen Strange Frankenstein monster. So I made an exception to mask collecting and have been trying to aquire Don Post G.S. examples. Here in the pic (excuse the mess) is a '63 Don Post pull (haired and painted), the '63 hands, and my latest addition...a 60s calendar mask pull, haired and painted. (I hung the 1966 calendar mask image next to it to compare). Eventually, these items will display with my '99 calendar issue. All Glenn Strange. :)
Enjoy,
Richard

Great stuff Richard!! I'm looking forward to you getting that room done and posting your monster collection in all its glory.
Question..........why Glenn Strange rather than one of the other Frankie incarnations?? I'm always interested in why folks gravitate to a certain monster or monster actor.

GREAT collection, Richard! Yes, i agree Karloff was King, but Glen Strange is more the iconic image us old school monster kids relate to best. I also did a similar display using an old gutted out TV like you. I recently inserted a little 12" TV inside of it, so when you turn off all the lights, it's kinda like having the original old set back in operation... Keep up the "Strange" work!

Well, it's been just over a year since my first batch, so here's an update on how it's progressed. You can see I've added a 3rd row of shelves to the wall and replaced the jumbos that used to be on top of the case with more monsters. Recently decided to display the jumbo kaiju so as to provide a bit of a segue into the monster stuff. I think it works pretty good. Still, not too many super rare things and still mostly newer stuff, but I think the overall effect is more impressive than it was last year.
I think the biggest thing for me this year was getting my posters framed finally. That had been a long time coming.

I think the biggest thing for me this year was getting my posters framed finally. That had been a long time coming.

Beautiful masks, Richard. Glenn is my fave, too. I love the finish work on your calendar mask - do you know who painted and haired it?
Thanks all, for the kind words! :) :) :)
Andy, I believe previous owners said David & Laura Lady on both masks.

GREAT collection, Richard! Yes, i agree Karloff was King, but Glen Strange is more the iconic image us old school monster kids relate to best. I also did a similar display using an old gutted out TV like you. I recently inserted a little 12" TV inside of it, so when you turn off all the lights, it's kinda like having the original old set back in operation... Keep up the "Strange" work!
The Glenn Strange image was all over the monster toys of the 60s, both directly and indirectly. The Hasbro notebook/paint-by-number artwork, the Famous Monsters Speak LP artwork, and Mani-yak iron-on artwork made me a big fan of the Strange Monster. Also, the first Frankenstein Monster on film that I saw was not on television but on a Castle Film 8mm (A&C meet Frankenstein) so the Strange image stuck with me and remains my favorite (as does "A&C meet Frankenstein").
About the TV cabinet~ I picked up 4 old B&W burned-out TV sets from the basement of an old movie theater that had been used by a TV repair shop in the 60s. I gutted them and put rollers on the bottom and intend to use them as storage/moving "tables" for setting up displays around the monster room(s).

Also, I think you need to send that Penn-Plax Creature my way, it looks out of place in your collection! :D

Hah!~I'll send it right out! ;)
Nah, I waited so long to find a good example. At least 15 years ago, I passed on a used one (broken fingernails, paint loss, no box, etc) at an antique store thinking I could easily find a much better one. Boy, was I wrong. It's hard to find a fine example let alone an unused boxed one. This was a lucky find and I doubt I'd ever find a replacement as nice as this one. Gotta keep him.
Here are more pictures of the masks (one with camera flash). It shows the calendar mask a bit better.
Best,
Richard

After nearly 2 years.......here is the current state of my monster basement. When I began this project it was a completely unfinished basement.
Going to the right at the bottom of the stairs will lead you into the movie area. Movie posters, modern horror and probably dvds (on the built in shelf area) will make up the monsterdom in this room and eventually a flat panel on the wall.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1238.jpg)
This view is looking back across the movie area from underneath the Frank clock. Not sure what I'm going to do with any of these built in shelf areas.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1239.jpg)
This is what you see when you're at the bottom of the stairs.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1240.jpg)
And here's looking to the left at the bottom of the stairs. One of these recessed areas will hold a comic, book & magazine area.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1241.jpg)
Cranking your head even farther left at the bottom of the stairs you see the door to the only completely finished (ok I still have some touch ups to do) room in the basement. The recessed area behind the fridge will probably be the home of my Sideshow 12"s.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1242.jpg)
Looking back up the stairs. The small hallway will be a glow display for all things that require a little UV magic of course.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1243.jpg)
Here is the actual current state of my monsters..........
Luminators, various posters, comics, pepsi promo displays, etc, etc.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1244.jpg)
4 shelves loaded with monstrous goodness plus the old outdated VHS collection.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1245.jpg)
Some Auroras stuck in the corner.....Please don't ask why Grandpa isn't wearing pants, I don't want to go there.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1246.jpg)
Close up of my cheap ass Frankenstein clock, this was a clock my Laborer's Union gave me for Christmas year before last but the "Local 660" logo just didn't fit so I gave it a face-lift. He demands that I go back to mudding & taping now, or else......
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/Basement/DSCF1247.jpg)
I've been getting a little more time to work on my basement with being laid off but I'm also watching my daughters 3 days a week (not including weekends). That's soon to be 4 days to save a little more money so I really only get a couple of hours during their nap time to work down there during the weekdays. Hopefully very soon (a few months) I'll be posting some updated pictures of actual finished displays!
Oh well hopefully you've enjoyed looking at clutter, wall board, mud, corner beading, etc.

My friend, that room is my DREAM!! A finished basement/movie/football/reading room!! Unfortunately, I live in freaking Florida, where a basement would require a pump the size of the ones on the Queen Mary to keep out the water.
Keep us posted, I'd love to see how it turns out.

Hey Gakenstein, sorry for the late reply. I didn't notice you question until just now. Just haven't been around too much lately...
Anyway, that's the Spanish "Franki" game. It's pretty cool. There are little holes all around the head and players take turns putting these little pieces of plastic into them until someone hits the wrong spot. If I remember right, it then makes a sound and the top of the head pops off or something like that. It's pretty cool. I liked it from the moment I saw it, when Morkai posted some of his pics, so I was glad to get one on Ebay.

Great looking Monster Rooms! One day when we have a basement, I'll be able to display my collection the way I want to. Right now its in a little corner, mostly in a couple boxes next to my comics. I do have some posters/lobby cards up, but we live in a 2 bedroom townhouse so space is limited at best.
Keep posting pics!

some people see hunks of plastic and just don't get it, while i'm envious.

I recently took some new updated pics and thought I'd share. My collection goes from the classic to the modern era and also includes some independent artist pieces. I've got several new ones on the way but here it my collection as it is now. I also have a lot of posters, autographs, etc that I don't have out on display due to lack of room.
Thanks for looking;

Wow. That's quite a collection of heads. I guess a thousand heads are better than one.
My fave is The Brain That Wouldn't Die!
Here are a couple more shots of my Frankenstein zone...

Man that is an awesome collection of mask and busts! Not enough room is the worst enemy of all. Are some of the older masks made out of material that will break down over time? That's always one reason I do not collect some older items made of rubber material.
I also like the way the Frankenstein logo swoops up. It makes it great, that way you can stagger your franks by height. :)

I am floored by your great monster room! I especially love the Ted Danson/Gaylen Ross Creepshow 'Tide You Over' zombie masks, and was very pleasantly surprised to see the two masks from Bava's 'Demons'. That Metropol invite is a really nice touch!
Excellent collection!

Thanks for all the comments!! My collection is my pride & joy.
hehe Yes Mike did the Frank & Bride painting currently above the Hammer pieces...the other one is a Coop print.
That's one of my favorites too. That one came about when a group of 8 collectors chipped in and commissioned it. I missed out on it but got lucky when one of the 8 had to sell his.
Carol Hicks sculpted that one and I designed and built the lab apparatus for it. Working on that was how I discovered just how many obscenities I could fit into a single sentence!
Yes the older latex masks may start to break down over time. I keep my collection in a room with very little natural light and none of it is ever in direct sunlight. Plus I live in a very dry climate which helps as well.

Well I'm getting somewhere in my basement, kind of....still a lot of sanding to go....The quest bedroom was quite unusable in its previous state of chaos so I started to organize. This was going to be my room of Universal Monster store/promo items but I've discovered the displays all but swallow up the room so I'll have to go back to the drawing board.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/DSCF1448.jpg)
Don't really like the Bride hanging over the wall edge like that but the only other option was behind the door and now of course this will just be temporary to get this (and the other displays) off the floor and out of the garbage bags that they were previously stored in.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/DSCF1449.jpg)
This is the one that really made me realize that this ain't gonna happen in this 10x10 room. You can see in the previous picture that this sticks out from the wall a good 2 foot. The only other space I have to display this is the wall that will eventually have a flat screen on it so I'm going to have to put some thought into the displaying of this (or the purchase of the flat panel?).
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/DSCF1447.jpg)
For whatever reason my wife got really hip on the idea of getting the bathroom done so we got the vanity and toilet. The past few weeks I've been messing with plumbing, insulation, more drywall, tape/mud, etc., etc. Here's a peek at the border that I've proposed to the wife.....needless to say she's less than enthused with the idea (unfortunately for her, she gave me the final say in all things concerning the basement). Not only does she not dig the pictures but she hesitates using wallpaper paste for the application as we've had experience dealing with removing old wallpaper, not fun by any means.
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/DSCF1450.jpg)
I don't know what it was about the vanity but once I started looking at it I got a 60's vibe so that's where I'm aiming with the decorating/display in there.

One more sneak peek at my bathroom the next pictures posted (Whenever that may be!) will be the finished bathroom. Until then....
(http://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/DSCF1454.jpg)
Interestingly enough my wife did not put up one bit of fight over the shower curtain, she even help me iron.
The above image is from Photobuckethttp://i252.photobucket.com/albums/hh10/zombiehorror01/DSCF1454.jpg all you have to do is put [ IMG]http://in front of the url and[ /img] behind it. Using the picture icon above will save the step of typing the [ IMG][ /IMG] and you just have to paste/type the url between the two brackets. Also you can just cut and paste directly from Photobucket were it says IMG Code in the pop up below your picture. Hope that helps.

Thanks, guys. Anytime you are ever in the good 'ole midwest/St. Louis area, drop me a line and pay a visit.
Here's a few close-ups of the AHI and Lincoln monsters cases for you, gracebuster. I've tried to collect an example of each variation/style of monster. Still have a few to go:

The guy on the lower left seems displeased with his meal. Or perhaps it is simply time for the alien fetus to hatch. Better clear some table space.
Great rooms, everyone. And Don, way to go with those dinner guests. Good job.

lappys22 , those are fantastic shots. My monster collecting knowledge is growing, but still not where it should be, but I'm pretty sure everything there is 100% awesome. Judging just by those shots, it seems like you resist the urge to buy filler, or "toy crack". That's really hard to do, but the payoff can be pretty rewarding.
Don, fantastic modern horror collection. It cracks me up that your big Sadako is carrying a knife though! J-horror has long since lost it's appeal for me, but I remember when I first saw the Ring on a Malaysian vcd many years ago and it scared the daylights outta me. To this day, I'm not sure I'd want that thing standing in my house. And of course, that's awesome that you got those guys to come over for dinner. Chalk that one up to "you don't know if you don't ask", I guess. Good work..

The new camera takes MUCH better low lighting pictures. So here's a shot of my room lighted only by the Universal Monster string lights.

I particularly like this shot of the Motion-ettes for some reason.

I should take more later with other things lit up, but I'm still just playing around with it. :)

Not at all. The shelves are just planks of wood so just tacked them up to the edges. Easy as pie. I just gotta get some more C batteries for those cheap blow molded flashlights I got awhile back. I've also got the Frankenstein head from last year and the Dracula lawn ornament, but I think that makes too much light and sort of defeats the purpose. Monster rooms should be dimly lit....like a castle. ;)

Mike, when Christmas rolls around, they sell lights that resemble the runway lighting used to line the aisles in theaters so you don't fall on your arse when returning to your seat for popcorn. Ever notice them?? Long clear plastic tubes with tiny bulbs every couple of inches.
I picked up some in RED.........and they can easily be tacked under shelving, following any curve or bump because the tube can bend any which way, and give a nice, subdued, eerie glow that lightly illuminates. I've seen them in green as well (which would also look great for the eerie purposes in question) and they can be made as long as you like because they simply hook to each other, allowing you to make it as long as needed, and end in a wall plug.
I got mine at WalMart...........I think a box included 3 tubes at 3' each (I'm guessing........don't have the boxes handy). Here is an idea what they look like.......

Lighting is everything.
As much as I enjoy all of the monster room shots from UMA members, many of them are lacking proper ambiance due to the use of flash. Use a tripod or sit your camera on a shelf or something. Flash sucks the life out of most photos, IMHO!

I am amazed and intrigiued, Rob congrats on a room that has me salivating!!
2 questions..on your Dracula shelf I see something that looks almost blow molded. The silver with red eyes Drac...looks farmilar but unsure. Care to shed a little.."light" on that Dracula if you will?
Also I noticed some Marvel Legend action figures that looked somewhat recent...just curious, are you still collecting them? I have a ton but theyre dated 4-5 yrs old..the newer waves werent really doing it for me.
Great stuff!!!

Glad you enjoyed the pics. The silver Dracula head is the head of the flashlight from the set that was recently discussed around here. I popped the flashlight base off and put just the head on display. There are some of the Marvel Legend figures around the place as well as some of the DC counterparts. I'd like more of the various superhero ones, but there are just so many that it gets to be cost prohibitive. Sometimes if I find something on clearance or such, I'll pick it up. The great thing about the flying superheroes is that they can be suspended from the ceiling with fishing line thereby keeping the valuable shelf space clear for other stuff.

Thanks for that info!!! When you have that much stuff I can see why the suspended heros are a good idea. Looks great!!

Hhwolfman, on page 1, in your first reply, second pic, there is a box labeled "Super Monsters" directly below the Green Ghost game. Can you tell me what that is, and do you have a better pic of it? It's sorta ringing a bell, but not a complete memory.

Hey all.....
My "monster room" is not all monsters, but it does have some cool pieces inside. In this room my family/ friends watch movies and basically have a good time. The movie/ rock memorabilia you see are 100% authentic. There are a few replicas/ original casts in the room which are listed below:
1. Don Post Creature mask
2. Original 1st generation casts of Chapmans land creature feet
3. Original 1st generation cast of the Wolfmans cane handle.
4. Original 1st generation cast of Fossil Creature Hand #1
All other items are the real deal. Hope everyone enjoy's the photos, and sorry for the cruddy pics, but I was in a hurry when I shot them!

Hang on a second. Forgive me for going off the topic of monters, but please tell me the story of your Rocky shorts and how you got them, if thats an authentic movie prop, I'd have to call it the most impressive collectible I have seen on here ever. Maybe anywhere. (would those be from Rocky 2? Or 3?) Wow.

First, thanks for all the compliments everyone I appreciate when other collectors like what I have done. Next, yes these are shorts from Rocky III. They were obtained by me from Planet Hollywood, Los Angeles when the restaurants started auctioning their material as they went under. The tags with Stallones info, and measurements from Western Costumes is still attached, and several areas of "blood" staining from the fight scene. These shorts were used as a preproduction fitting pair. They were also used by Sly while filming all facial closeups for the fight with Clubber Lang. These shorts are a little looser fit than the various pairs used for long shots which were butt tight on Sly and had narrower stripes running down the front and sides. In all the production used 5 different variations of shorts for good ol' Rocky Balboa. Sly was also kind enough to write me a letter authenticating the shorts stating that they were once part of his personal collection before donating them to the company/ restaurant.

Thanks for sharing. I love seeing everybody's cool stuff.

I think I saw your piece from "The Thing" at the Monsterpalooza this year. (Unless someone else did that piece too). I remember because I really love that movie. In my opinon, it was the scariest movie for me to watch as a kid. excellent!

And that's how all good collections begin - small. Never mind the space issues or even the money concerns, if the love is there .. it'll find a way. I know that sounds corny, but it's true. And whatever you do, don't fall victim to the comparison game. It doesn't matter who has what. All that matters is your personal enjoyment of the crap you do own and not obsessing over stuff that you don't. This is the secret to building a long and prosperous monster collection.
That's a great philosophy and a great way to approach collecting, especially for us beginers.

Daniel,
Thanks so much for sharing that stuff. INCREDIBLE collection. I feel like I owe you admission or at least the price of a Famous Monsters magazine just for getting to look at that.
The Phantom of Paradise piece and the Ernest Borgnine piece from Devil's Rain (as well as the Planet of the Apes stuff) were standouts for me.
God bless you for commiting to the hobby like that. SO fun to see that stuff.

What he said. Please, Daniel... looking at these pics is like picking up a favorite book/ monster mag. You could do it daily. I remember a lot of that stuff as a kid from the old Famous Monsters issues and to me, it's nostaligic. It's very warm for me to look at those pics. Thanks again and keep 'em coming.

WOW! I mean WOW! What a collection. It's displayed so well and I could look at those pictures over and over many times (and definitely will) and see something new.
I must admit that one of the things I love about the collection is that there aren't many pieces, if any, that are still in their packages. The figures are out in the open to be enjoyed. One of the things I'm struggling with as a new collector is, do I keep things in their packages, or not? Obviously, taking figures out of the bubble packaging will destroy the package, but it's hard to enjoy them the way they were intended if you don't take them out.
Anyway, thanks for sharing the photos...very inspirational.

Depends why you are buying. If you plan on reselling down the road, then you might keep them in. However, I stopped buying for resale many moons ago and decided to enjoy what I have. That is, I buy what I enjoy even if it isn't worth a dime later on. Unless the box is incredible on its own (Aurora kits) or the figure is cooly displayed within (I love those Hasbro tubes), then get 'em out IMO. Like you pointed out, that is a big reason Dan's, and many others' collections here are top-shelf. Great items and displayed with purpose and care.

That makes a lot of sense, Bogey. Actually, my mindset lately has been to take them out of their packages, but I was trying to gage what the hobby standard was. Regardless, I enjoy them much more out of the packages and will probably continue to collect/display that way. Thanks.

There are absolutely similarities between Frazetta and Ken Kelly. They both share a sense of form and action that have become familiar to the "Fantasy" art form.
But you have to admit many of these images are incredibly like those of Frazetta, down to pose, subject and color palette.
I don't question his skill or his craft, I'm simply noting that some of his work seems to cross the line from inspiration to duplication. I don't think that's the case with Mr. Kelly.

Would you say the same thing about Ken Kelly? I understand that he trained under Frazetta.
Maybe I'm taking this way out of context, and the subjext is Monster Rooms But, Frank Frazetta's work is iconic and a great abundance of artist have copied his style. As for Ken Kelly, in my opinion his style leans more towards Boris Vallejo. Here's the part were it gets ugly......Ken Kelly is a wannabe Vallejo clone, and as far as I'm concerned Vallejo and Frazetta's AMAZING work can never be surpassed. They are, and will always be the best of the best in Fantasy art. Ken Kelly to me well, he will only be know for two of the most famous album covers of all time. KISS's Destroyer and Love Gun LPs....and that's it. Sorry. :(

Can't agree with you on Boris Vallejo's work. His stuff looks too much like people dressed up in costumes. Frazetta and Kelly's work at least "look" like they belong in an alternate universe. Boris' stuff is too posed for my tastes. His older, looser work was much better than the pseudo-photo realism stuff he's doing now. If it's fantasy, it should look like fantasy. His pencil work is really nice, but a lot of his work is just boring to me.

Right as rain, Mike. Frazetta is a true artist. Vallejo, although extremely talented, is an illustrator.

Frazetta created from his imagination, Boris used posed photographic references (mostly of himself, which is why so many of his characters look alike). Huge difference IMO.
Ken Kelly won my admiration with his Eerie covers. I also met him a handful of time, seems like a real gentleman.
Bottom line is they all have entertained me over the years (but Frazetta is the King!).
I highly recommend the documentary PAINTING WITH FIRE to any Frazetta fan who hasn't seen it.

My digital studio has become my "monster room." A collection of 12" and 8" Sideshow Universal Monsters, Big Loo (circa 1963,) Mr. Machine (circa 1960,) a rare Tobor the Great figure, an array of Ray Harryhausen figures. Also a replica of the Monster Movie Matinee opening haunted house re-created from photos from the original Alexander railroad model 1959.

Yea. For some reason my photobucket freaks out and doesn't always load or loads something completely different than what I want. I've put enough pics on here the last year or so which proves I know how to do it. Maybe I should just open a Flicker account.

http://universalstev64.homestead.com/HouseOUniversalSteve.html (http://universalstev64.homestead.com/HouseOUniversalSteve.html)
I just cleaned up another water in the basement mess and I was more prepared than last time. I only lost a couple of things this round. When summer hits the basement is getting an overhaul and then hopefully no more leaks. I can't take losing any more stuff. I hope you like it.

They tend to sell for a lot less these days. One in pretty good shape closed on ebay for $26 the a week or two ago. Still $35 with shipping, but well worth it. I'm luck enough to not only have mine from when I was a kid, but to have traded into a mint with tag and tissue paper on in the early '90s as well. I love 'em both.

When my in laws stayed here last year there were a few items that I had to remove before my mother-in-law would sleep in the room, one of which was the Miles Teves Phantom bust which had been sitting on the window ledge right at bed level.

Actually my daughters have already enjoyed tea time with CVS's 24" Wolfman and Creature as well as a dinner party with some plush Munsters at that very table. Frankenstein has yet to RSVP.

Love that flick...don't have it on dvd yet but I still have my vhs from way back when. You know we've had previous topics on movies blending comedy & horror and I don't recall this one ever being mentioned (or maybe I just forgot that it was) which is to bad because it's another great example that the blend does work when done right!

"Nother monster basement update~slate tile for entry and carpeting is installed, painting for the most part is done, still got some molding to do and have to finish the spindles/handrails coming down the stairs...then I can start planning my shelfing units, getting stuff framed, etc., etc.
A view down the stairs, thinking of getting some lobby card repros to display along the stairwell wall.

Sometimes I even ripped them open in the store after I paid for them! I always figured they were mine, ALL mine, and I would never need the boxes. I really miss the sideshow boxes, but some of mine were ripped when I got them. Anyhoo, I can walk down memory lane by staring at mip toys such as yours. Great displays, too!

Thanks all...
I don't know if it's resolve so much as knowing that I'd have to move this stuff a few more times and keeping it MIP is just easier for that purpose. No damage, no missing parts. I haven't made up my mind whether to release them from their vaults or not but I'm sure the pressure from the UMA on both sides of the "boxed" or "unboxed" argument will be on once everything is finished and displayed...LOL!

Figure while I'm at it, I'll go ahead and post my room. It's only 11' x 11' so this will be a wall by wall tour. Please keep in mind I really stopped collecting for a long time and my wife started me back up in it about 3 years ago. I don't have a ton of items but I am happy with what I've done so far.
Ok, from the wall you face when you first enter the room.From there we go clock wise..............

Got him off of ebay a while back.I remember having all of these as a kid. When I started collecting again I told my wife I had to have at least one Kooky Spooky . And it being in the original package makes it that much better!!!!!!!!
Hope you've enjoyed!!!!!!!!!!!!

Got him off of ebay a while back.I remember having all of these as a kid. When I started collecting again I told my wife I had to have at least one Kooky Spooky . And it being in the original package makes it that much better!!!!!!!!
Hope you've enjoyed!!!!!!!!!!!!

I believe Dr. David Lady sells them. Also see somebody selling them on ebay from time to time. Go under movie memorabilia and props. It usually pops up in a mask or bust search.

Thanks Guys, :)
And it is nice that my wife actually encourages my collecting. She even bought my AHI creature for Christmas. and as for the Colorforms set, I had one as well. Back in the day I would collect any new or old. Now days I'm really just trying to re-coop what I had as a kit or at least the things I really wanted back then.
I do have a few other projects to finish for the room. There will be a couple of full figures added as well as a couple of toys here nor there.

NICE work Duane! That's amazing you can fit so much cool stuff in 121 Sq feet. I'm reworking my 10 x 10 room and it's got me stumped how to fit everything in. Then again I have 1 wall for my western collectibles and a 3' corner for the few vintage toys I have left.
Zombiehorror,GREAT job man. Very well thought out and cool. I agree that is a monster clubhouse. The repro posters on your stairway would be a big poppin grand entrance. Do it.

A while back, I picked a Detolf display case from Ikea when they were on sale. I set mine up as a Lon Chaney/Wolf Man display. First, the front, then shelf by shelf, then the side.

I do have to ask why you have the back of the one bust showing. Next to the Wolfman mask

That's one of those busts they had had Michael's a couple of years ago around Halloween. It's of a young woman and looks funerary. It's facing the other way because that's where I sit when at my desk. I still need to put somethng behind the Wolf Man mask,

It's not the display case but what's inside of it that counts! In my opinion those Ikea displays would look silly and useless when filled with anything else but monsters!

If I may offer the answer, those were from Art Asylum's line called Silent Screamers!
Series 1; Caligari, Cesare, Renfield and Graf Orlok
Series 2; Golem, Maria (Metropolis), Jekyll & Hyde and The Monster (Edison's Frankenstein)
I believe these were available as black & white or sepia...or was it color or sepia!?!? I thought series 1 was pretty cool and always wanted to pick up series 2 but never did.
Oh and it is a nice collection you have there!

Well if you look at it this way SHE has the better deal here. 1100 sq ft tri-level house. I get 200 sq ft and the upstairs hallway for my stuff and the 1/2 bath in the basement. In monster room A I also have a TV,chest,dresser,chair and bed. We sleep in separate rooms due to completely different sleep patterns.
Then there is the 20x22' garage that she gets 3/4s of. And the 4500 sq foot yard is mostly her design and my work. Hmm, under the stairs is starting to sound pretty good. ;)

Is that Mrs. Bates' rocker in the last photo, Lester? ;)
Could be,could be...
Actually that is a 1920's-30s wicker rocker. Several years ago my wife had a small gift shop/resale store. She went under and the owner never came back to claim it even though we called her a few times.

Well if you look at it this way SHE has the better deal here. 1100 sq ft tri-level house. I get 200 sq ft and the upstairs hallway for my stuff and the 1/2 bath in the basement. In monster room A I also have a TV,chest,dresser,chair and bed. We sleep in separate rooms due to completely different sleep patterns.
Then there is the 20x22' garage that she gets 3/4s of. And the 4500 sq foot yard is mostly her design and my work. Hmm, under the stairs is starting to sound pretty good. ;)
You're playin' my tune brother..........

I am not sure if I ever shared my son Seth's Monster room or not. Being 40 does that to the mind ???. I know I showed my classic stuff...but he's a little more up to date: He's 10, been collecting since he was 5. Seth considers our man Robert one of the "celebrities" thats always at the horror hound cons,lol.

I've been hesitant for a while now to post any pictures of my 'sanctum', because I don't have nearly as much neat stuff as most of you folks in the thread. But I am really happy with how this room has come along. It's more of a super-hero/monster/sci fi room, but hopefully you can forgive the mixing of genres!
This first pic is as you enter the room:

I'd like to echo Brian's (BK's) sentiment about never being hesitant to share your collections with the group. It's not about how much you have or that it's all monsters. It's the crossover part of our collections that give each of us our own flavor. A collection is like a mosiac that says, "This is who I am." For myself, I tell people that I collect monsters, but I am also an accumulator. I have Sci Fi stuff, super hero stuff, and stuff that I just think is cool. I make no apologies for it because it's my collection. I like to see people's collections regardless of what they collect.
Oh, and Moonshadow, that is a very nice collection. The Captain America shield, the lightsabers, and the posters are great. Best of all, you still have wall and shelf space for your collection to grow.

Yup. I don't think there's anyone out there worth his salt who would say 'pfffft... this collection isn't as good as mine'.... You have a great collection and it's well displayed, Moonshadow. You could have that ONE item that is missing from another collection that that other guy is just DROOLING over.

The CA shield is cool! I like the Harryhausen stuff and need to get some more RH figures and 50s sci-fi figs! All I need is more money and more space! :D

As usual, I'm blown away by how wonderful everyone is on the UMA forum! Thanks for all your kind remarks about my monster room. I'll try to answer some specific questions -
Bogey: the 'little primate' next to Wonder Woman is a Bigfoot figurine I purchased in or near Willow Creek, California. I used to do a lot of camping in the Trinity Alps area and the folks up there really know how to market Bigfoot! The little roadside shops have a ton of stuff and over the years I bought several things, including this figure. Here it is below in detail:
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/bftight.jpg)
The Sorcerer's Apprentice figure is one of my favorites. It's about a foot and a half high and the base lights up. My husband got it for me after we saw it on our first trip to Disney World and I was just in love with it. It's called a "Big Figure" statue - here is a link: http://www.yourwdwstore.net/Disney-Big-Figure-Statue--Mickey-Mouse--Sorcerers-Apprentice_p_4525.html (http://www.yourwdwstore.net/Disney-Big-Figure-Statue--Mickey-Mouse--Sorcerers-Apprentice_p_4525.html). Here's a close-up:
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/mickeycloseup.jpg)
Rob: Yes, I have a little space to grow- you might have noticed the bookcase extension I added next to Dr. Doom! I have plans for that already. ;)
Lester: Glad you liked the website. We have fun doing it.
Scatter and everyone else who commented on the Shield: That was my really big purchase, from Sideshow. I agonized over spending the bucks on that but I love Cap, and man, is that shield cool! It's real metal and real heavy - you could get a work out running around with that thing!
Gasport: Thanks for the compliment on my Uni Monster display. I wanted to do something with them - make a scene from a movie that never happened! Amazing the stuff you find on a trip to Hobby Lobby!

the 7-11 Warlock cup, and so much more. ;D

Love the Bigfoot, I've been camping in California and have pics of some lifesize wood carvings of a couple of bigfoot's.

Oh Moonshadow!!!! I feel sooo much better since you showed us your fantastic monster room!!!! The Fantasia Mickey made me feel like I'm not the only Disney/ Monster hybrid collector! :) I also have a couple big figs that I adore. I now feel like as soon as I get some assistance from my husband, I'm putting up my monster room/ Disney nuthouse pics. My main problem, besides lack of computer skills, is that my bedroom is my monster room. And it's always a mess with folded laundry and shoes lying around. So to photograph it, I need to get cleaning! Thanks Moonshadow, for showing your cool room!

I kind of suspected there might be a few Disney fans amongst us! The big figure Mickey is really well done, the coat is even a cloth material. The eye is drawn to it when you enter the room. At some point i'll have to post some pics of my lanyards and pins - I'm sure some of you are also pin traders!

We're more Monster/Old Hollywood/70s Pop Culture/Classic TV. There are a LOT of us hybrid collectors out there!!
It's so eclectic that it's really hard to display with any sense of coherence, so we don't even try. We just put it out there and enjoy it!!

Yep.
Monster/30s-50s crime ,gangster, westerns, Juvi-delinquent/ Classic TV that most anyone under 40 never heard of/OTR/and of course any classic cartoons including Disney. Believe it or not I have a 1980's Disney 3 little pigs music box I will never part with. Has the pig house with the wolf peaking around the corner and one of the pigs dances around the house while it plays "Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" Yea,I know, my Wickedness just dropped a few levels. :P

Oh... for some reason yours looks huge! My Chernabog is probably10-12 inches high, but it was meant to be used outside so it has very little detailing. I just love having it around. I also have Hyacinth and Ali Gator from Fantasia, in the same garden statues. Those stories are so perfect to watch! They've got music, great animation and wonderful characters.

My main problem was using the photo sharing service that was already on Yahoo. I didn't know I could go off the grid, and use a different one. After I spent hours trying to use it, I watched the tutorial again ( I can now talk along with it ) and I started from scratch using the tinypic, like they did in the video and it worked!!!!!!

Do you have any Drywall screws securing this to your wall? Looks like it could have an issue being top heavy. Also what do you have in the little bookshelf to the right? Looks like a ton of graphic novels or something. I always like to pick at peoples brains that are as macabre as I am. >:D

Hey Lester, the Mags are Creepys, AFM , Famous monsters, and a british rock mag called uncut. I just put all the heavy books at the bottom of the shelf no problems. the Tutorials from Wayne of the woods said to screw it into the wall but I havn't yet,Instead I am making Paper mache'giant skeleton hands to go over the ledge where I am painting a mural of the Crimson ghost, which you can see pictured.Then I got a tutorial on a Guillotine I am gonna get started on.

Most of my stuff is on that one shelf, but I have some on my nightstands and anywhere else I can find a spot. Every monster room I see on here is neatly organized and in nice cabinets, I gotta step up my game. Ooh, this picture can be the "Before" picture and then I'll post an "After"when I'm done.

Well, I finally did it. My husband has been encouraging me to get a Detolf cabinet for my monster room ("The Sanctum") for some time, and yesterday we broke down and got one. We're old pros at putting them together, as he has 5 of them already! So last night we moved some stuff around and assembled the cabinet. Here it is in all its glory:

You've seen my Sideshow monsters before in this thread -here's how they look now:
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/unimonsdisplaymid.jpg)
I also got a wild hare to try to make a diorama based on Son of Frankenstein. I'm not totally satisfied with it, so there may be some more tinkering. I used the Sideshow 8" figs for this:

My husband, who is not a monster fan (put away the torches!) has a very nice collection of super-hero and movie statues. He keeps seeing the monster rooms here and asks, "Why don't you post some pictures of my stuff?" In order to keep a happy relationship, I'd like to show some pics of hubby's collection. First, the wall of Detolf!

"Alarm! Alarm! Empty space alert!" Tell your husband that he needs more stuff so he can fill that empty space. I'm sure he won't need too much encouragement. That is a lot of nice looking stuff he's got there. That Batman that you like is a great looking piece. The cloth cape makes the difference IMO. Detolf cases are a cinch to put together. Finding room for more...that's the challenge.

You can find Detolf cabinets at Ikea for about $60. They require assembly but it is not too difficult, although it helps to have two people.

Thanks for all the kind remarks, fellow Army members.
Charp: Wolfman has terrible inner ear problems and loses his balance easily. ;) To help him I braced him against one side of the case and put a little putty on his back foot to help him get some traction.
Bogey: The Gandalf fighting the Balrog is, according to husband, ToyBiz Balrog Battle Gandalf. He has an extremely loud voice that says, "You shall not pass!" That dang Balrog is huge too. The wingspan is easily 4 feet. He's above and to the right of my desk and it took me a week or so to get used to him looming over me!

Well, I finally did it. My husband has been encouraging me to get a Detolf cabinet for my monster room ("The Sanctum") for some time, and yesterday we broke down and got one. We're old pros at putting them together, as he has 5 of them already! So last night we moved some stuff around and assembled the cabinet. Here it is in all its glory:

Larry, I got the facts from my guy: he says the Hulk and Juggernaut are custom statues from a seller on ebay. They are about 23 inches ( that's 58 cm) tall including the bases. The seller is in the Philippines, but we are in Arizona and he got them within two weeks of the auction's end. They were two of the best packed statues he ever saw. If you are interested, PM me and I'll get you the ebay seller's ID so you can check him out.

Been through Burbank many times, had family in Pasadena and Oxnard at one time and traveled through the area frequently. I do recall it being quite warm in the summer!
We're in Phoenix, so in the same general area as your family. The whole place is 90% asphalt, so the temps never come down. Talk about poor planning!

This last image is a favorite of mine because I built the bases, The Saucermen one I tried to recreate the lobby card pose and "It"is carved styrofoam covered in Durham's water putty.

I haven't seen it yet, but I think I might be getting it for my birthdayin the A.M. hahaha Anyways, you gotta lot of cool movies! I also like the Frankenstein stuff all grouped together - I might steal that idea!
Thanks! The Crazies VHS tape I got on clearance when Hollywood video liquidated their vhs. Frankenstein rocks!

This not exactly in one of the scenes from the movie, so what I did was compiled different deatail from the movie set and put it into one. The window, the steps, the wire attached to the wall, and the rusty machinery. Again, I carved the styrofoam and coated it with Durham's water putty.
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash2/hs129.ash2/39776_1342434160834_1230622740_30796452_903245_n.jpg)
Two simple bases, the Mummy's Ghost was done with Balsa foam.
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs269.snc4/39776_1342434200835_1230622740_30796453_2688616_n.jpg)
This one was fun, it's the scene towards the end of the "Mummy's Curse" in the old monastary. The arch isn't to scale or I would have to have made it about 8" taller.
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs269.snc4/39776_1342434240836_1230622740_30796454_4678613_n.jpg)

I tried to recreate the scene in the room where they had the camera set up and the box the Scroll was in towards the beginning of the movie. I plan on darkening the walls...their to light I think.
(http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc4/hs208.snc4/38732_1342434560844_1230622740_30796456_6839528_n.jpg)

I made this one after I built the model and that's why his right hand isn't touchin the wall like in the famous still. One day I'll correct it.

To Wicked Lester and everyone else who commented on my stuff, thank you very much for all the kind words, makes it all worth while. W.L., I started collecting the models back in the 80's but didn"t go crazy until the late 90's. To finance my addiction (not joking) I sold off most of an extensive gun collection along the way...no regrets, I still have some good stuff in the armory but any way about three years ago some friends helped me build the monster room and I spend alot of time down there, too much time according to my wife, so now I limit my time to when she's not home. Got alot of hours into everthing, too many to count. I still have about thirty kits left to do, so little time. Before I get to those I'm going to finish some custom bases. One for two Mole People (almost finished), a grotto for the Creature, and two Metaluna Mutant bases. When I finish those I'll post the wall of 50's Universal monsters. Thanks again.

Kenneth, I'll post a picture of the Billiken Dracula tonight and Mord, the Nosferatu figure is a David Grasso sculpt from Nocturna Productions and for Anton Phibes, I did paint all the figures in the photos and once again I thank you all for the compliments. "It, Terror from Beyond Space" was a blast to paint, it was actually the first monster movie I can remember seeing and is probably what got me into monsters. I was around 5 years old back in '64 and my mom and dad came home late from going out and they let me and my sitter watch this "scary movie". I was more facsinated than scared but the scene that sticks out was when the body of one of the crew was in that air duct and his eyes had the "Night of the Living Dead" look. My sitter was awesome, after that she and I watched all the monsters movies after that and she even bought me the Aurora Hunchback kit for my birthday and her boyfriend took the time to build it for me...been hooked ever since. How fortunate we are to have this site.

That radio is actually a Crossley brand immitation of an old radio, it has a CD /cassette player built into it. I put it in there for atmosphere. I will probably replace it soon with a very old tv a friend of mine has. You have to see his collection. He collects old slot machines, tv's, bikes, board games, pedal cars, monster stuff, transistor radios, robots, and anything else you can imagine. He keeps it all in a store he inherited from the 1920's and in the adjoining warehouse also. There are literaly thousands of items.
I will take pictures of the items pertinant to this site. You will enjoy this stuff. Out back he has a city he calls "Skellville", it's city made up of full size skeletons! He also has a collection of full size dinosaurs. One day were are going to try painting them to make them look more realistic.

Mord, I did all the painting myself and thank you for compliment and for monsterphile, I don't know if my friend will join us but I will ask him. He did say he had no problem with my taking pictures of his collection which by the way is an accumilation since about 1974. He doesn't allow but a handful of people to see his collection in person but I showed him this site and what other people here have put on it and he was alright with me sharing it with the UMA.

Thanks for posting those pictures, Jethro. I also love your billiken Dracula, it's one of my all-time favorite Lugosi sculpts. I have one painted by the very talented sculptor, Tom Kuntz. It's beautiful, but doesn't have the elaborate backdrop that yours has. I can't wait to see what you do with the Moebius Dracula! Keep posting those amazing photos, please. You really make our day.

Well, this is actually my very first post here and I feel rather unworthy, lol
There's just so much awesome going on here, my collection seems so small now lol
I have a huge collection of a lot of stuff and the Universal Monsters section is just part of my house.
Either way, this is my Universal Monsters wall.

Welcome to the wonderful world of the UMA, Zombieheath! I know how you feel, when I first posted my monster room I felt like it was nothing compared to most of the rooms I'd seen. But you know what? That simply wasn't true. We all have cool stuff and regardless of the size of the collection, we UMAers love looking at everyone's collections! Your collection is very cool. I dig those posters and the way you have displayed everything -very nice! Looking forward to hearing more from you.

I will be putting more pictures in my albums on Photobucket very soon of the rest of my place and as soon as I do, I will let you guys know.
Nice to meet all of you and thanks again!! :)

I also have a small collection, zombieheath, so it's fun to see how other people's collections are displayed. But I already have decided to steal one of your decorating ideas! The creepy cloth on the shelf is brilliant! It heeps the shelf from having to be dusted all the time AND it looks cool! I just bought 4 packages at Garden Ridge, so I'll be cracking one open- Thanks! I'll post a picture of my copycat shelf later!

When it comes to monster collections here never compare yourself to others. We have VERY knowledgeable veterans that have been at this game for DECADES. I've only been back in it for about 6 years and prefer masks and props which take up a LOT of room. Different budgets/spaces/preferences etc etc. It's all good. ;D If someone only has a few figures and a couple Frankenstein posters that mean the world to em I want to see them. 8)

Welcome zombieheath! Cool collection and I'm with charp13, that cloth makes it creepy cool. I'll also steal your idea!
My collection is small as well. In fact I only have half a shelf in my closet. Most of my posters/lobby cards are rolled up awaiting my man cave one day. I only have a few models, my SSE Drac and a few odds and ends displayed, but I love looking at it everyday.
As Lester said, everyone here digs any kind of monster display!

Awesome, I'm glad you like the creepy cloth idea; I just took some of that $5 cloth that you can pick up from Walgreen's during Halloween (one cream color, one olive green color) and cut them down to a smaller size and just laid one on top of the other and poof! I had a nice little dust catcher and neat-o aesthetic design.
And yes, I have missed out on some awesome decades when it comes to collecting ability; I'm only 24 so I'm rather limited on my collection because things from the 60's til the 80's are so rare or extremely expensive. I was lucky to find the Bride and the Monster so cheap (actually from a guy on this forum selling them for their original price, which was an amazing deal seeing how much the Monster was going for on eBay alone.)
Please do post your shelf cloth ideas! I got a huge grin whenever you guys said you would be 'stealing' my ideas lol
Decorating my house with horror-movie-fandom and comicbook fanboy-dom is my ongoing project so any ideas are totally welcome!
Again, thank you for all of the warm welcomes!

Hey, man---everybody's collection starts with their first item. When all my stuff got destroyed in various moves, I had to start all over at age 23. The first items re-bought were a box of enamel covered Aurora kits from a flea market that I overpaid big time for. 17 years later---BOOM!!!!!!!!!

That's an old resin garage kit--unsure of the maker. This particular piece was purchased already finished from Danny over at sassy's satellite. Aside from a mask, this is probably the one figure type thing done for the film. At least to the best of my limited knowledge.

Thanks for your commitment, marsattacks666! I really need some inspiration for 2K10. I fear that I'm all out of ideas, except for that cool creepy cloth on the shelf idea that I got from another member.

Michaels has tons of books, on Hallowe'en decorating. I try to buy the coolest of the cool Halowe'en items.
For instance, Target always stocks really interesting Hallowe'en decorations. I always pick the least CHEESY
items of the lot.

Though I don't have a Monster Room any more/yet per se ['kids' being the big buffer in-between what was and what will be], I am graced with a display cabinet in prime family-room real estate. Whether this is ultimately a good or bad thing remains to be seen. Anyway, no such modest accumulation of actual collectables would motivate me to share, but for this new acquisition, which cost me a total of $2.99 Aussie, I proudly present TOD BROWNING'S ARMADILLO.

ZH's "guest room" is one place I wouldn't mind sleeping overnight! And DLT, the armadillo is a strange but somehow fitting addition to your collection. BTW DLT, I knew I had seen your icon somewhere; I recently re-read Zelazny's "A Night in The Lonesome October" and saw it was from there. It had been driving me crazy!

Thanks! No, the movie posters aren't from the calendar; they're the standard 11x17 poster reproduction prints.
Also, that is indeed a baby crib beneath the posters. The newest member of the family is due within the next few weeks! Want to introduce him/her to the Universal Studios classics as early as possible:)

Trap-Door Maker - I am so honored to see your home!! It is so beautiful and your glass display cases are so glamorous! Everything in your collection is beautifully displayed and it looks like you have an amazing home! RedKing- I really needed to see a collection like yours today! It is so inspiring and really made me smile. :) I needed to see walls with art like yours because I sometimes feel like I go overboard with the posters and photos, but I see that we are from the same decorating school! I love it! Thanks for posting your collections on here, both of them are so full of Monster Spirit!!!!

RedKing,
Your collection rocks! Your wife needs to have a bronze statue of her put in front of your house. It's neat to see stuff that overlaps in all our collections as well as stuf that's different. Again, a wonderful set up.

Rob, don't I know it! My wife rocks! She does like some of the movies too, not to the obessed extent as I do, but she'll watch quite a few of them with me.
charp13-thanks so much! It is awesaome to be able to share my collection with other fans who appreciate it. I only have a couple of friends who are fans locally, so it is great to be part of a bigger network of other like minded fans.
Because my stuff id out in the open people that come to our house see it and I have had what i call the Addams Family reaction a few times-where somone will be shocked that this kind of stuff is all over much like visitors to the Addams home would always comically react to their decor. I especially like it when Jehovah's witnesses stop by >:D.

I've been the pastor of a Baptist church for 29 years. When I moved in to the parsonage I decorated it with framed Berni Wrightson, Mike Kaluta, and Barry Windsor-Smith prints. Wrightson's Bad Doin's in Knuckledown Lonesome hung in a prominent place in my living room. I had my Great Garloo and the Kenner Alien on shelves in the study along with my Aurora monsters. I got a lot of strange looks from the parishoners. Now I have my own house with my upstairs studio where my monsters are safely housed.

Trap-door maker, I really LOVE your collection and how you have it displayed. It might be my favorite one so far. One question... what are those beautiful mini busts in front of the Neca headknockers (Mord, Boris and Bela from "Black Cat" etc.)? Are those still available? Did they come pre-painted? I've gotta have those!

Allow me to answer this one. The busts are the work of UMA member Ray Santoleri. Here's his website:

I'm sure you'll agree he's quite a talent.

This is not exactly a Monster Room since it is outside. This a project a friend of mine did about three years ago. He has property at a busy intersection in our town which originally was a gas station/general store back in the twenties and he has maintained it's original appearance quite well over the years. I post pictures of this fantastic building in the future as well as the unbelievable collection of monster stuff, old bikes, old toys and other collectables. These pictures are of his little town he created for his amusement called Skellville. Everyone here is dead in this town. I took these photos during the day. I should have taken them at dusk...very, very creepy and atmospheric. I know there are alot of pictures but these are half the ammount of the scenes he created. He has a smoke machine attached to the cab set on a timer to give it the appearance exaust is comming out of the engine. Hope you enjoy it. You should see it at dusk with the wind blowing through the trees. He just picked up seventeen new skeletons that are about three feet tall to create new scenes.

You should see it at dusk with the wind blowing through the trees. He just picked up seventeen new skeletons that are about three feet tall to create new scenes.

Very cool! That tractor pic reminds me of when back about 30 years ago, i noticed an old International tractor in some woods near my house that was abandoned and over the years trees had actually grown all around it , fencing it in. God knows how many years it had been sitting there... One day a local farmer made arrangements with the property owner to remove it. I saw him messing around with the motor and asked how he planned on getting it out of there. He said you CAN'T kill these things and he would be DRIVING it out! I thought he was out of his mind, but a few hours later i heard a chainsaw start up, as he was cutting down the trees that had grown around it and the next thing i know, he's behind the wheel, DRIVING this thing thru the woods! I told him he should have alerted the International Tractor company of his plans because this would have made a GREAT commercial for them! AMAZING!!

Wow, it's so cool to know that places like this exist in the world! I would love to move to Skellville and be the creepy old caretaker, if he ever needs one. These are amazing displays and I can imagine what it must look like at night under the stars and a bright moon.

I've been meaning to do this for a while now and today I actually took some pictures for posting.
Facing west, the most boring wall of the room because of the closet, but inside the closet are many treasures.
(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c346/JimBertges/Miscellaneous/100_2153.jpg)
Next we turn to the South where business and TV viewing are conducted.
(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c346/JimBertges/Miscellaneous/100_2150.jpg)
And then to the East where the old workbench is located.
(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c346/JimBertges/Miscellaneous/100_2147.jpg)
Finally the North where the bulk of my junk is located along with my shrine to Chris White.
(http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c346/JimBertges/Miscellaneous/100_2144.jpg)
And now for a closer look at a couple of areas.

There is a bit of other stuff scattered around the house, but I'll save that for another time.

Fantastic collection, love how it is displayed. What's the story behind the little model Monster kid room display?, it looks great fun.
That's a diorama I built as an homage to all our rooms we had when we were kids. It's the subject of an article in the latest issue of Amazing Figure Modeler.
Thanks to every one for all the great comments. I didn't realize the stuff I had was actually "displayed", I operate by the principle that if there's an empty spot somewhere, stick something in it.

LOL-I have never seen a house collect dust as bad as ours! I don't know if it is because we live on a dirt road or because the house is old or what, but I can dust and sweep today and by tomorrow I will have dust bunnies formed already!

Don't feel bad......that's the bane of EVERY collector.We ALL know what that's all about. Damnable dust!!
Great collection, and a great wife to let you display it in all it's gory glory!!

Keep in mind, a large portion of dust is shed dead skin cells. Are you sure you're not mutating into some new lifeform?

Of course the accumulation ebbs and flows with the years and various financial situations, but I still have the one original piece that started me off, an Aurora Frankenstein kit purchased at Disneyland. And I purchased a replacement for my battered and lost first issue of Famous Monsters which also helped to lead me down the Monster trail.

When you get a chance, can you post a close-up of those plane models, Jim?

Digital photography is a wonderful, almost instantaneous thing. Here are the planes as requested.

These are two Dogfight Dioramas built by my friend Rick Overton. They are his answer to the Luft '46 game in which the Germans have advanced jet fighters and battle the Allies. Rick's idea is that the Allies should have the advanced weaponry and shoot down the bad guys. I like his idea better. He built a lot of these and has them hanging in Hobby Shops all around Los Angeles.

Wow you guys must have been collecting for YEARS. Even though I'm a new generation of Monster fanatics, I love the old Aurora sculpts and vintage toys. I have mostly Sideshow related Universal Monsters, but with the re-releasing of the model kits I want to change all that. I'll post pics of my considerably smaller collection tomorrow. :laugh:

Keep in mind, a large portion of dust is shed dead skin cells. Are you sure you're not mutating into some new lifeform?

Quote from: Scatter on November 14, 2010, 01:29:11 PMThanks Scatter! My wife is definitely awesome! I should post a pic of the whole wall in the living room so you can see the disconcerting mixture of my monsters and my wife's porceline dolls!
Don't feel bad......that's the bane of EVERY collector.We ALL know what that's all about. Damnable dust!!
Great collection, and a great wife to let you display it in all it's gory glory!!
Erin, we all love to see any collection, no matter how big or small. Can't wait to see yours!

Everything looks so amazing..........and clean! I also really like that zombie sign, I've never heard that before. How did you come up with all those display ideas? I need some of your imagination :)

it's not really a monster room, more like a wolfman/werewolf wall. the display isn't that great either it's more a jumble of shelves, but one day I'll hit up ikea for glass shelves to give my collection the appropriate display. i put up these images in another thread but i found this wonderful thread, it is so great to look at all these amazing collections and i love your displays, oh i can't wait till i get a house and am able to paint and get shelves and make a true monster atmosphere.

it's not really a monster room, more like a wolfman/werewolf wall. the display isn't that great either it's more a jumble of shelves, but one day I'll hit up ikea for glass shelves to give my collection the appropriate display. i put up these images in another thread but i found this wonderful thread, it is so great to look at all these amazing collections and i love your displays, oh i can't wait till i get a house and am able to paint and get shelves and make a true monster atmosphere.

WWW!!!! Your monster room/werewolf lair is spectacular! I love the way everything is grouped together and the wall art is howlingly lovely! It's so cool that you focused on werewolves and ran with it. I am all over the place and have a hodge- podge of a monster room. It's a really cool room and I'm going back to take another look. Thanks for posting such good photos :)

Let me know if you ever need a creepy old caretaker to move into your rec room! I would clean up and keep the riff raff out of there for you. Your monster room is incredible and I love the brain that wouldn't die! You should be proud and joyful about your "pride and joy", it is a really great room :)

A few photos of the progress on the monster basement....
Finally got around to finishing the other side of the spindles/railing on the stairway..was really dreading doing this but finally forced myself to~

My girls just couldn't resist a photo op! These are a bunch of McFarland's that I've had stored in totes since we moved in and I felt they deserved to see the light of day....though this will not be their final set up~

And finally took down some temp shelves I had in this cubby and built the permanent ones which as you can see is now where my dvd collection resides~

My husband got a wide-angle lens for his camera and decided to try it out in my Sanctum (aka monster/comics room). I think a number of things have changed since I last shared this room.
Here's a shot facing north:

For an early Christmas gift, hubby got me the Sideshow Creature statue -I was blown away! Apparently he got a great deal on a "used" one, but it looks perfect. So here's a close shot of my Creature Tribute shelf:
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/Sanctum%20December%202010/creatureshelf.jpg)
Here's a wider shot, showing the bookcases below the Creature:
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/Sanctum%20December%202010/bookcases.jpg)
Another favorite is the original Marvel Zombie, Simon Garth ; the base on the statue is amazingly detailed:

Ok Gang - Since I don't have that huge of a monster collection, I'm gonna at least try to make this as entertaining for you as possible - so here we go!
The ominous looking door to what is going to become my MONSTER ROOM...
(http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/oo79/TheUnknownPrimate/Monster%20Toys/EvilFrankyShock033.jpg)
The North corner so far... what you see when you open the door...

Going through some plastic bins, I found this little dude in his Yanoman box - MINUS his right arm! Looked everywhere, but no damn arm! I'm going to try to make a new arm out of Sculpey, but don't know if I can pull off the tiny details. Oh well. Where the hell's that arm?

UP!!!! Those shelves are the greatest shelves I've EVER seen!! I bet they can hold hundreds of pounds of monster stuff! Mine are black, wooden and flimsy- so I have to constantly dust them and I can only add a few monsters to each shelf- Ugggh! I agree with Scatter that it is thrilling to see the bare bones of what will surely be an epic monster room! And those shelves will probably hold an actual Bigfoot monster- if you find one!

Those shelves are heavy duty enough to allow you to climb to the top and swat at pesky biplanes while gripping a bodacious blonde. And I fully expect your obituary to contain such references.

Thanks Gang! Yep, those are mine - I started on the Franky & Ygor 7 or 8 months ago, then tucked it away. It needs some finishing touches, obviously - details & more shadowing. Kong was easy & fun - just like me! OK, I just weirded myself out! I got a great deal on the steel shelving - just had to bang'em together. Nice & solid! Man, it feels good to finally get this deal going!

Good eye, Monolith - it's a Southern Pacific railroad boxcar! Might be an engine, though - I'll have to look closer!
I have been finding some pretty cool stuff - some I almost forgot I had. Some doubles I should put up for sale - some Sideshow 12" figures, the 12" Hasbro Signature series & a few others. I'll have to post the specifics in the Monsters For sale thread sometime soon.

Two attempts at capturing my monster basement with panorama~
This first one came out a little fudged doubling some of the Bride standee and that area as well as the funky looking door/railing in the last frames....

This one came out much better, I don't think there is any funky/doubled areas.....

Great collections everyone. Big or small, all that matters is you do it for yourself, and you enjoy what you collect.
I've recently been rearranging my masks in my monster room in a more permanent location on the shelves. Here are a few bad quality shots of the masks portion of my collection until I finalize the display etc... I still have a ton of masks in storage like Topstones etc.. that will have to wait until I have a bigger place. It's come a long way since the pics I posted at the beginning of this thread years ago. When i get my toys a bit more organized I'll share some pics.
I only collect mass produced designs, I don't own a single indy mask. Not because I don't appreciate them, they just don't make me feel warm and fuzzy like a mask you could walk into a store as a kid and buy. I feel the same way about model kits.
These are all Don Post

A little sneak preview of my monster display. Just putting them on the shelves randomly right now. I plan to rearrange them eventually, but I keep finding more & more monsters - think I'm gonna need more shelves! I'll post close-ups after I get everything where I want it. We've spoke about the size of one's collection and I consider my monster horde rather small in comparison to most of what I've seen in the UMA, but I'll tell ya, I can't imagine setting up some of the monster-size collections I've seen on here! Amazing, just plain amazing! Anyway, here's mine so far & thanks for lookin', gang!

That "sock monkey" is really a Socksquatch, and yes, he is very creepy - especially at night, when I'm at my drawing table... with my back to him... I can feel his staring eyes.
It has definitely gotten more use as a clothes hanger than what it's supposed to be for - a useful contraption, nevertheless!

Socksquatch!!! Hahahahaaha! You and your room are awesome Up! In fact, every time I read your posts, I think about one of my favorite " squatchs"- Quatchie! Do you happen to have one? It's the cute little mascot from Vancouver. Let me know :) Your room is already better than mine- TRADE YA'!!!

Thanks everybody!! Charp, wasn't "Quatchie" one of the official mascots of the Winter Olympics, also? Or was it just for Vancouver, in general? Either way, no, I don't have one - it'd be cool though! I'd trade ya, but the monstrosities in my room have already taken it over - I'm just a looming "Gulliver" to their demonic "lilliputians"!
BTW, my granddaughter was here all week, and claimed she wasn't scared of the room. I said, "Good - coz that's where you're sleeping tonight!"
FYI, she woke up EVERY morning beside an unknown primate (in his & his missus' bed) ;D - matter of fact, she slept ALL NIGHT LONG with the hairy beast - me, being the hairy beast, not my wife!

The rooms coming along great UP, fantastic collection. Did I see a Ymir standing next to Godzilla, fourth shelve down ? Can't wait to see more pics, and I'll cast a third vote for the close-ups on the simians.

Looking good. One of the things that is a bit of a dilemma when you begin the process of setting up a display is HOW you are going to organize it. Some people group by character, some by toy type or manufacturer, some by era, etc. I like to mix it all up, but I do have some areas grouped by monster:
(http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd71/actionplus/monster%20gallery/Picture203.jpg)
and some areas by toy type/maker:

UP--I can't wait until your collection gets fully revealed and arranged. I know that you have been aching to get it unpacked for a long time time. Keep us updated.
Andy--That's not only a great collection, but you are fortunate in the amount of space that you have available to you. By the way, I didn't see any pictures showing the elecric fence that keeps the kids out of there. :)

Rob, we don't use an electric fence; that would be cruel. Cattle prods are better for conditioning behavior. ;)
Actually, I let 'em play with some of the stuff if they want to...but usually they just ignore it anyway.

Poseablemonster- your monster room is an inspiration. I have to say your AHI bend em's and jigglers are some of the cleanest and brightest I have seen. Nice work on those. I would enjoy seeing a close up of your mummy bend 'em to add to the many discussions on the topic which is one of my favorites. Also, the multiple 8" AHI figures you have amassed is truly impressive. You must have every wrist-joint, arm color, head type, soccer shoe variation of the frankie, as well as the others I would guess. I don't think I would have the patience to hunt all those down. But I so admire your attention to detail and beautiful display. A true standard setting collection.
If you get a chance could you post some close up photos of your AHI bend 'ems and jigglers? I would love to see those up close. Thanks for the inspiring monster room!

The little Wolf Man with the yellow pants actually holds a pair of scissors, tucked up his...er...well, definitely don't run with scissors. The box lists the line as both Horror World and Hora World with then anme of one company Stix International on the top and Vannays Merchandise Inc. (1985) on the side. Only the Vannays company is on the back of the toy. I got this off of Ebay years ago.
As for the jello mold, I think I may have tried a long time ago, but I don't think I had any idea how to do it properly and the jello didn't form correctly. I don't remember exactly where I got this, but I think it may have been around Halloween.

monsterphile thanks for the great pics and info,i love the artwork on the side of the box, the wolfman's expression is perfect considering were those scissors are located :o ouch.... you have helped me so much on my search for this little guy i though he was a stamp roller and from bandai so this is really helpful.
and as for the jello brain wolfman, i couldn't bring myself to eat out of his head i just kept thinking of that scene from Indiana Jones and the temple of doom with the "chilled money brains" yikes
that wolfman is freakin awesome and so are you for that matter!! thanks again

Quote from: AHI Creature on December 30, 2010, 10:08:19 PMThanks, AHI. Those jigglers and bend 'ems are all in a rear-loading case that is tough to move and get into, so these are the best photos I can post for now:
Poseablemonster- your monster room is an inspiration. I have to say your AHI bend em's and jigglers are some of the cleanest and brightest I have seen. Nice work on those. I would enjoy seeing a close up of your mummy bend 'em to add to the many discussions on the topic which is one of my favorites. Also, the multiple 8" AHI figures you have amassed is truly impressive. You must have every wrist-joint, arm color, head type, soccer shoe variation of the frankie, as well as the others I would guess. I don't think I would have the patience to hunt all those down. But I so admire your attention to detail and beautiful display. A true standard setting collection.
If you get a chance could you post some close up photos of your AHI bend 'ems and jigglers? I would love to see those up close. Thanks for the inspiring monster room!

This variation of the Creature Bend 'Ems is the only one I have seen. Unlike the usual stiff, shiny rubber; the one on the right is made of a softer, flat rubber.

All of the rubber AHI jigglers I have are the bin toys with tags attached to the cords, except for Kong:

WOW, PoseableMonster, thanks so much for the great photos. You have one of the nicest mummy bend 'ems I have seen, here is a photo of one I bought recently from Dr Shockers museum:
(http://www.smugmug.com/photos/1100288603_Mc9Fe-L.jpg)
I almost asked about the Creatch Bend em, that looked like a strange color. I have never seen that variation and I would be so interested to hear any info anyone has on it. How soft is it (pencil eraser? jiggler?) Can you share the story of where you got it and what the seller told you? It is a mystery like the dark AHI mummy jiggler I also got from Dr Shockers museum:
(http://www.smugmug.com/photos/1100288869_85sGV-XL.jpg)
Any info or ideas anyone has on this figure would be appreciated...The wolfman bend em card is perfect- you must have the best specimen on earth of that peice...do you also own the carded mummy bend em in the Gallery? (Or does anyone know who does own it?) Also whats the story on the green knock off (mexican?) AHI wolfman jiggler where did you get that and do you have any other AHI figures like that? Sorry for so many questions but the photos were so interesting and thought provoking. Thanks again for the great photos, and happy new year!

That odd Creature Bend 'Ems came from Canada as I recall. It is definitely softer rubber than the others, but not as soft as the oily jigglers.
That brown Mummy that you have is an interesting variation. These weird oddities pop up from time to time; probably just the manufacturer using what they had on hand at the time to make the figures. Like the "cupped hands" monster bodies for example. These bodies are too long for the clothes and shoes, but they used 'em anyway.
(http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd71/actionplus/Monster%20Toys/ahi.jpg)
I have a Lincoln Dracula that has a head molded in green rubber and painted flesh colored:

The green AHI Wolfman knock-off came from Mexico. I have a few Creatures from Mexico; one is cast from the Penn Plax aquarium figure and the others are Aurora casts. No other AHI recasts, though.

monsterphile we had talked about the werewolf jello head and how i was a little weirded out at the thought of eating the jello brain out of his head, well my nephew came over and accidently knocked over the top of the jello wolfman head exposing the brain, he freaked he took one look at the plastic green brain and bolted out of the room.
i think my collection may have psychologically scared my sweet little nephew, :-[ although my niece saw it and automatically wanted to touch the green plastic brain.. kids well at least i am still the favorite auntie to someone, well if he is truly terrified i guess he can take comfort in the giant cvs plush wolfman i got him for christmas that my brother says he sleeps with..

In the hallway of our house, you have to walk past my monster room to get to the bathroom. My wife's friend's daughter (age 6) always wants and escort to walk her quickly past my room. Some kids like it, some don't. Sounds like your niece on her way to being very much like her aunt, but there may still be hope for your nephew. :)

(http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd71/actionplus/Disneyworld%202010/Picture109.jpg)

I really dig that attraction poster, never seen one like it. I'm currently having the Disneyland Mansion's fence replicated (the front fence design) not the small walkway fence, for a studio I'm building. Thanks so much for sharing ;)

PM: thank you for posting pics of your Disney collections! Just outstanding, I am still poring over them. I love the pins, I just put a bunch of mine in a shadow box too. Are they primarily Haunted Mansion? I see Mickey and Minnie ghost pins that look like the ones I picked up at Disneyland in October.
I'm also diggin' the Shag shirt! That's a great way to display it. And you have a refillable mug! We went to WDW for the first time in 2009 and I loved my refillable mug.... ;D
Again, thanks for posting those pics, you have a wonderful display.

Oh- I love how you set up the hitchiking ghosts in front of the poster! Cool idea! And the Grave Robber's Reward is a beautiful work of art. I just got the Jim Shore statue in Nov. when my husband and I went to MK. It is my new favorite collectible! The pins are displayed so nicely- I never would have thought of doing that. I only have 2 HM pins because I usually just get them for my niece and nephew. Now I want to collect them too! haha! That HM stuff makes me so happy when I see that other people are smitten with it too, I smile every time I walk past my dining room. I wouldn't know what to decorate my house with if it was without Monsters and hitchiking ghosts! It would just be empty rooms, I guess! You should be very proud of you HM room and all the joy it brings to people :)

The Haunted Mansion stuff rocks! I've been collecting this stuff for awhile , i love the pins but the haunted mansion pins can fetch some big bucks especially the early ones or the really limited ones. The Pin store at down town disney had the frame sets half off last time i was down, I picked one of them up and the master gracey jumbo pin, I might have some extra haunted mansion pins to trade if anyone is interested. I'll post them on the items for sale page in the near future.

I've never seen 90 percent of the HM pins before. They are really cool, but it's too late for me to add another element of collectibles to my home. My curio cabinet can barely hold the stuff I have now.

my boyfriend and i love the haunted mansion and i wanted a HM theme bedroom so far we just have basics and no actual HM items we just have the feel of a spooky room, when we get a house we plan on going crazy with the theme, paint and HM items that will really set the room off. your display is really artful and i may have to borrow some of your concepts but keep in mind imitation is a form of flattery ;) the UMA is a wonderful place to get inspiration

Here are some of my haunted mansion items. The bride you see is about 24" tall and glows when she is plugged in, the tombstones are about 2ft tall as well and they too light up. I tried to get photo's of the pins but i have too many for photo's. I wish i could display them better. I love the shadow box idea. Im trying to finish my vintage model set as well so if anyone out there has any for trade give me a yell. Enjoy!

Ahhhhh! toys-of-terror!! I thought you were in my house in picture #1- haha! I have the bride and tombstones in a similar set-up in my dining room. You have excellent decorating taste. :) The rest of the pictures confirmed that you were not in my house as I don't have ANY of those collectibles! That little ceramic mansion is to die for, and the framed artwork is so fancy! I love all your HM display! Man, I really like those pins! I guess I never really looked that closely at all the different artwork each one has- I probably just didn't have my glasses on when I originally looked at the pins, so I missed out on all the details. What room do you keep your collection in? and where is the spare key? (Just kidding about the key-but I bet it's a skeleton key).

thank you charp13, glad you guys can appreciate my stuff, The ceremic mansion is actuall still available for sale at the christmas shop at down town disney for around $100 (for anyone who wants one) it lights up and is part of the villiage collection they offer, My whole house is dedicated to monsters/horror movies me and my wife both are monster lovers and we actually had a halloween wedding last october , i held it in the graveyard from my haunted attraction i ran for 21 years ( i have photo's of the wedding for anyone interested), you couldn't even come to the wedding unless you were dressed as a monster , it was a night to remember and turned out so much better than i ever imagined. I have monster toys/props/posters throughout my entire house. I have some extra haunted mansion pins for anyone interested.

Have to show off the neat Hairy Hominids that I have been recently gifted with.
Opera Ghost sent me the "Harry & The Hendersons" figure back in September, to cheer me up while recuperating from a busted back - I held off as long as I could to NOT take him off of his card, but I am weak and Harry is strong. The little "Creepy Apeman" was sent by Charp13 - he's awesome! Charp is awesome, too! Next is this cool little "King Kong" swingin' a club, sent to me awhile back by Scatter's son, Jordan! Thanks, Jordan - you ROCK, dude! Charp sent me these next two creatures, also - "Quatchie, the Sasquatch" & the wide-eyed "Dream Pet Gorilla". Thanks again to Rob, Charlotte & Jordan.

Here they are again, but it looks like the little Kong sneaked off.

I sculpted the big fellow on the left about 5 years ago. A girl I used to "work out" with in the gym, made this Golden Gorilla for me in 1987, back in my 'rasslin' days.
(http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/oo79/TheUnknownPrimate/Monster%20Toys/EvilFrankyShock075.jpg)
I love this "Roadside USA Miniature Billboard"...
(http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/oo79/TheUnknownPrimate/Monster%20Toys/EvilFrankyShock071.jpg)
I still have a bunch of Apemen, Gorillas & Bigfoot to go through before I finalize their positions on the shelves. Hope you enjoyed the show so far, and thanks for lookin'!

When they had those at Spencers, they were around $35 and I thought I'd get one later when they went had one of their __% off Clearance sales. Well, they never did. :(
Last year I found a boxed one at a yard sale for $5 and it took me less than a second to grab it. :)
The one unfortunate thing was that he said he had another one, but his kid wanted it and he had given it to him. Otherwise, I would have bought them both.
From what I remember them going for online, you still did just fine. Now if I could just find shelf space for this thing, it's big.

It's not super large, I think the box makes it look a tad bigger than it actually is. But I definitely cleared space when I got it because it was that one thing I REALLY wanted.
Now I want the super expensive Sideshow maquette, and as far as I know the only place to get it is eBay...it's not like Sideshow has it on their website anymore. >:(

The lunch box my be my favorite Uni Monster item ever made. I love the art and the nostalgia factor is very strong as I had one when I was just a little one.

Looking good. One of the things that is a bit of a dilemma when you begin the process of setting up a display is HOW you are going to organize it. Some people group by character, some by toy type or manufacturer, some by era, etc. I like to mix it all up, but I do have some areas grouped by monster:
(http://i225.photobucket.com/albums/dd71/actionplus/monster%20gallery/Picture203.jpg)
and some areas by toy type/maker:

But I find it is more fun to let the monster toys mix and mingle with one another...

Andy's room is beautifully done, but I'm sure it wasn't an overnight success. It probably tok him a good week or two to accumulate all of that stuff. ;) I think the amount of space and the hardwood floors really are the icing on the cake.

Thanks, guys. It did take several weeks...actually a little longer than that! The room was finished off especially for a monster gallery room. I looked at various art gallery layouts, and came up with the basic layout for our contractor. He did most of the construction, and I helped with the finish work. Some things I wanted were out of my budget, but it worked out very closely to my vision for the room. Then it was a matter of finding store cases that fit the space. I am always looking for better displays, and new ways to showcase the items in the collection. It really is a continual work in progress. Unfortunately I have very little time to enjoy it, let alone work on it these days.

Quote from: toys-of-terror on January 22, 2011, 02:07:49 PMThanks. I've been collecting things most of my life. I started with toys in the late 80's - Megos, ect...and about 1992 I started moving toward monster toys. I crossed paths with Ray Castile in 1993, and after seeing his collection I went fully into the monster toys. In 2002, my son was diagnosed with Autism, and in order to pay for in-home therapists, supplements and all the other expenses; I sold most of my collection. After a couple of years, things got better in that respect and we were in a better position money-wise, so I started building back my collection. I've gotten almost everything back with the exception of a boxed AHI Dracula and a couple other items that I haven't found yet.

Speaking of items that have eluded me; a carded AHI Creature has yet to make it's way into my collection. That is probably my #1 want right now. The other tops on my list would be the rest of the second series Famous Monsters of Legend (Dracula, Frankenstien and Wolfman), Boxed Lincoln Monsters from Europe, carded Tomland mini-monsters and there are a couple monster masks that I would like to find.
My #1 prized piece in my collection would be the nose/upper lip section of Forry's Creature from The Black Lagoon/Revenge of the Creature prop mask. It has the actor's noseprint on the back side.

Now I can look back and see such a wonderful, beautiful child...but at the time I didn't recognize it like I should have. He's ten and doing so well now, and things are good but I do regret some of the anger and depression of that time period. I wish I would have somehow enjoyed it more and appreciated the good times as they were.

The masks were put out by Don Post Studios, that Frankenstein was sculpted by Pat Newman for Don Post in the 60's.
I have somewhere in the neighborhood of 40 Don Post masks in my collection.
That ad is from the back cover of issue #36 of Famous Monsters of Filmland.

Hey, all those emotions are natural. It's a far more difficult thing than anyone who hasn't been through it can ever really understand. You have to walk a mile in those moccasins to do so, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

The only area I see that needs improvement though is that you don't have enough Creature items. The Creature was top notch in my book and you really should add more Creature items to your collection.

DAMN, KK! If i had a room like that i'd lock myself in and NEVER come out! Beautiful job...the stuff retro monster dreams are made of. You've inspired me to take some pics of my [much less organized] backyard studio where i teach guitar. Yesterday i finally committed myself to doing a LONG OVERDUE major dusting and cleaning. Takes a good two hours to systematically go around the whole room. I have a few glass sealed showcases and cabinets, but the majority of my stuff is exposed to dust and requires hand cleaning. DEFINITELY the down side to collecting! I always get a kick out of when a new guitar student enters and sees it for the first time. Some people literally squeal with delight and others doubt my sanity. [they're not alone!] Oh well, hope you all enjoy...

I keep coming back to look at it.............LOVE IT!! Know what it needs?? One of those old console stereo systems with the AM/FM/8 track/turntable. That would look SWEET in there.

Where would the turntable go?? The top can't lift up with the TV on top. I think it's just a cabinet. If it IS a cabinet ES, I wanna see inside!!

Thanks Hep! Yes, it's truly a diverse bunch of ''stuff''. Looks more like a ''Where's Waldo'' puzzle than anything else! I really do enjoy seeing people's reactions to it all...sometimes i end up spending more time talking about my stuff than i do teaching guitar! The Give A Show set was given to me recently from one of my guitar students who dug it out of a dumpster [!!] when he noticed a neighbor who was moving throwing out a bunch of his stuff . It's all there , too- the projector and all the slides! There was also a big stack of original Beatles trading cards he gave me about to suffer the same fate... AMAZING!

Mike, I'm in AWE of your collection brother. And I LOVE the cabinet for your TV. Is that an actual shell to an old console TV, or a retro cabinet made to look old school?? And, is that a vintage or new MEGO Batman there??

Dahhhhhhhh! I almost missed some monster rooms!! Adam- You are one classy monster kid! That room is as swanky as it is monsterfied. You really have an eye for decorating, I see you as the first monster room interior decorator!! You could get paid for making sweet monster living rooms, dining rooms, kitchens, etc! For all I know, you could be an interior designer already! It's such a beautiful room, and it shows us all that we shouldn't be afraid to take our monsters out to the living room :) Gasport- I am so enchanted by your collection! It reminds me of the glass cases at the Disneyland Hotel where they have all different kinds of mementos and objects that you can look at and say "aww man, I used to have one of those!" You have so many cool things! I will be staring at your collection for a while this afternoon! It's a music studio, you said? It looks like the perfect place to sit back and enjoy some music as well. Awesome!

Thanks everybody for your comments! Scatter, yes, that's a real TV i picked up at a yard sale during the 80's. I tried to get it in working shape by replacing all the tubes, but to no avail. It then sat out in my backyard [this was before i had sheds] covered with a tarp until i could decide what to do with it. Well, that winter was rough...the tarp blew off, the TV fell on it's side and was covered in snow. In the spring i went out to bust it up into pieces, figuring it was trashed. Turns out the nasty weather had simply [and surprisingly cleanly] removed most of the finish on the wood! NO warping, NO rot!! A testimony to how well they made these things back in the day! I decided it would make for a great cabinet, so i gutted and refinished it. [used to do a lot of furniture work back during this time] The Batman and Capt America are old school Captain Actions.
TOT, A good childhood buddy of mine gifted me w/the Herman puppet. Believe it or not it still talks! He also gave me the Horror Scope and the poster from The Terror which i eventually got Roger Corman to sign for me. Yes also to the Secret Wars and Super Powers figures. There are loose ones in the wood cabinet with the Lon Chaney Vampyre figure in front of it and carded ones in the stainless steel floor display. Nice to meet another musician here! We also have Packy Paul, Hep Cat, Big Bud among others here who play. Too bad we can't form a UMA band! I could even bring in Zacherley for some guest vocals!!
Thank you all again for chiming in...There have been times over the years when i almost packed away and considered selling a lot of my stuff, but i'm glad i didn't give in to those negative times in my life. It's SO nice to be able to share it all with friends here who truly ''get it''!

It is an amazing room all-around, Adam. The fact that the decor of the entire room is 50's era to go along with the Creature theme - a 50's film - is just beautifully presented. And the green color of the furniture; it's really the perfect Creature room in my opinion. Very well done, my friend. 8)

Okay, huge old school monster fan here (but I also collect scads of other toys).
Here's a link to pics of my old toy room.
I moved about 2 years back and because of not knowing how long I intend to live where I presently am, I have more than half my collection now stored in huge boxes in my current toy room, and it's not half as fun to look at as the old one.
I really miss having it all sprawled out. I use to love going into my toyroom, putting on the iPod, blasting old school hard rock, just lay in the middle of the room and observing the toy insanity around me. It was fun to build this room up from just a couple monster toys.
I should mention these pics were taken about 3.5 years back, so my collection has grown a bit more......just a bit!
Enjoy! And check out my monster models!

Thanks guys! Yes, I collect a bit of everything, but my focus is mostly monsters.
My approach has always been, when you go into a toy store/toy show, pretend you're a kid again. Walking down and around the aisles, what toy really grabs you? The great thing about being an adult toy collector is you are no longer at the mercy of Mom and Dad saying, "Put that back on the shelf where you found it." Now, you just buy!
The recession has put a limit on my buying now. I've slowed down. And it seems like the amount of toys that I find interesting coming out, has slightly slowed down too. Still collecting though!

Okay, so now that you guys have seen my "old" toy asylum, I decided to take some pics of the new room.
Not as outrageous. I didn't cover all the walls with toys like the old room. Not sure how long I'll be living where I am, and the last toy room move was a bitch.
So, I have opted to only displaying my loose toys. The MIB/MOC toys are all stored away.
I have a series of shelves running wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling. I took a bunch of pictures tonight (with a little bit of overlap).
These first 3 pics were taken about 3 months back. The rest are new:

LOL, my sister emailed me a couple of weeks back and told me I should open a toy store.
Yah, Cadaver is a very cool piece. He was a bit pricey, but I had to have him. I think Pinkerton designed him for Mezco.
He's being hung up by fishing line and push pins. There's just no way to make him sit or stand.
Did you get a chance to pick up the rest of the Dark Carnival line?
The Browning Brothers, Cadaver, Stitches, and Madam Mortus
I snatched those up as well!

After five years I finally got a display case (my great grandmother's old china cabinet) for my monster stuff. Not as big or grand as some of the others posted, but it's mine and I love it.

My favorite is the Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man Statue. In the background is a picture autographed by Sara Karloff and an autographed Alice Cooper $100 dollar bill.
(http://i748.photobucket.com/albums/xx129/ormsbyhost/Monster%20Display%20Case/display2.jpg)
The best thing about setting this up is after I everything in it my wife came up stairs with three boxes. She bought me Sideshow Frankenstein (from Bride), The Bride (not pictured) and Dracula years ago and forgot about them. They went right in the case.

Hep, How i would LOVE to bask in the glow of your model cabinet in person. Seeing these pics transports me back to when i was a kid and would walk into my local 5 & 10 where the whole side wall was stacked to the ceiling with vintage Aurora, Revell and Hawk kits. Even more impressive from a little kid's point of view. Wonderful memories...thanks for posting!

Very cool display and hopefully, your grandmother would approve.
Rob
(Truthfully, that's the original Ormsby head I made in 2009 from play dough, milk cartons, paper mache, felt and foam. Since I didn't envision using it as much as it wound up being used, I didn't build it with an eye on durability. Slowly over the year, with the wear and tear of filming episodes, going to cons, and making public appearances here in town, the head which we now call "Ormsby-Prime" started to come apart. After we did the 100 Years of Monster Movies live web cast the flesh came off the entire lower jaw. Also, I was repairing it more than it was used. I built a new Ormsby head, out of polymorph and retired the "Ormsby-Prime" head at Halloween 2010. Even though it's not a collectible it served us well and I thought it deserved a place of honor in the Monster Case.)

You're welcome! I actually get a feeling of blissful satisfaction myself whenever I settle back into the Laz-Y-Boy in my comic and other collectibles room. I always thought my collections would give me comfort in my old age, but I've not yet reached that age! I guess my collections have grown more quickly than I've aged.

I had assembled about a dozen Aurora, Hawk and Revell warplane and warship kits up to about the age of twelve. The Aurora MIG-17 and Avro-Arrow CF-105 were hanging by threads from my bedroom ceiling but I'd displayed the rest of the finished models on a small end table. My sister took it upon herself to vacuum clean them one day and some of the small parts were sucked away. That broke my heart and I lost interest in the military models.

I 've been buying up M.I.B. ones for about ten years now. I'll try to post pictures of some of them by the weekend.

QuoteThe Aurora MIG-17 and Avro-Arrow CF-105 were hanging by threads from my bedroom ceiling but I'd displayed the rest of the finished models on a small end table.
Hep, Mig 17? I remember and have the Aurora Mig 19. The cool thing about it is the amazing green plastic it's pieces were cast in. Don't believe any paint job could compare to that green! Buddy

Hep, photographing the Mig 19 brought up an interesting fact. I thought I had 2 versions of the Aurora box for the Mig, but one of them definitely says Yak-25 despite the fact that the illustrated jet is exactly the same as the Mig 19 and even has the same "8" insignia! End of box states this to be kit NO. 66.....on both boxes! How strange.........Buddy Oops! Sorry, put model's tail right over the words YAK-25

You've actually touched upon a very interesting subject. How anyway did Aurora get the specs for the military models the company produced? How in particular did Aurora get the specs for the Soviet planes? Did Aurora offer to get Kruschev laid in return for the specs or what?
The Aurora kit labelled either a MIG-19 or a YAK-25 closely resembled neither. This was a MIG-19:
(http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g434/Balticprince/MIG-19.jpg)
As you can see, Aurora has the tail wings/stabilizers in the wrong spot, the nose is wrong and Aurora's model is just too stubby.
Neither does the kit resemble a YAK-25:
(http://www.aviation.ru/Yak/Yak-25.jpg)
Among other things the YAK-25 has wing mounted engines. The Aurora kit most closely resembles a MIG-15 or MIG-17 like the one I've pictured below but with a rounded instead of hollow nose. The tail wings/stabilizers on the kit are still too high though:
(http://ui07.gamespot.com/1766/mig17_2.jpg)
:o
What's clear and obvious is that Aurora's magnificent box artist Jo Kotula painted the actual Aurora model and not a MIG-19 on the box I pictured.

Beautiful room, deadman!! I really love the color you've painted your walls. Man, everything looks so much better against red walls- I have contractor-white walls, which do not do justice to the framed artwork and posters I have hanging up. Your mask display also looks striking against those rich colored walls. You really have a monster retreat- Very Cool!

3. How and when was that poster for the EC horror books issued?
4. Why is your Jack Davis Frankenstein poster B & W? Is it a variant - or a repro?

Hey Hepcat. 1.it's from a Haunt of Fear portfolio Russ Cochran did years ago
2. This is a repro of a painting Jack did for Bill Gaines that hung in the Mad offices, it's from a book called Foul play about the EC comics highly recommended.
3. The EC poster was a comic shop promo when they were rereleased in the early 90's
4. The Frankenstein poster is a repro from a UMA member who did me a huge kindness.
Hey KKlloo, I know what you mean, I had spoke to VXX-FX about the three Ghoulunatics masks, but never got 'em now they are really rare, I feel really lucky to have scored the three Zombies and the JD Frank. You know Monsters in Motion have re released the Yagher Jack Davis kit that I have, it is a really killer sculpt.

I can't recommend this book, Foul Play any higher! It is a *wonderful* collection of work by most if not all of the EC artists. You'll see lots of unprinted stuff, bios, etc. Great, great book if you're an EC fan.

It's so atmospheric, I can imagine setting up a movie screen, getting out some snacks, mixing up some beverages and watching The Alligator People in your bar! I love everything about your room.

No MIG-19s would have been met in combat though since the first MIG-19 rolled off the assembly line in March 1955. And the Aurora kits Bigbud pictured came out about that same time.

Thanks for the kind words guys. As most would know some of these collectibles are expensive so I do not say lightly there have been days where we have reluctantly gone without so I can sit and ponder at these marvels of modern horror....love the stuff lol.
The Jason mannequin was put together using some old boots, pants, a shirt all purchased cheaply from a thrift store ( my wife hates that Jason even has undies on ) the mask is an MMFX Jason 4 bust and the hock is was a Frightstuff blank painted by me. The hands were initially just manny hands but with some epoxy-sculpt they came out ok.

Here are some of my haunted mansion items. The bride you see is about 24" tall and glows when she is plugged in, the tombstones are about 2ft tall as well and they too light up. I tried to get photo's of the pins but i have too many for photo's. I wish i could display them better. I love the shadow box idea. Im trying to finish my vintage model set as well so if anyone out there has any for trade give me a yell. Enjoy!
i just acquired two of the green bobblehead hitchhiking ghosts on ebay i won Gus and Phineas. i am still on the hunt for the ezra bobble and i was wondering how rare is ezra and what is a good price for him. i really dig all your hm stuff :) super inspiring

CreepysFan- Those shelves look like the real deal! They are beautiful wood and look really heavy! But -WOW- they compliment the heck out of your collection! The wonderful masks you own deserve those sweet shelves :) I love the way you display your buttons on the front of the shelves as well. Did you hot glue them or use some kind of sticky pad to adhere them? I am going to use your idea! I never knew what to do with the buttons I have, so they are in a drawer. Every piece in your collection is displayed beautifully. You are a great monster room decorator- bravo!

Seriously, that's a sweet collection. What was that room BEFORE it became the Gallery Of Evil?? Did you have to toss out a bunch of Karen's stuff to set it all up?? Is the couch comfortable at night now that you have to sleep there?

OK........now that some of the boxes have been unpacked from the move (finally) we can start our room. Not solely Monster related though. We have a mix of classic TV, old Hollywood, Monster, old toys, etc.
First, the layout. We're just beginning the process, so bear with us as we develop the motif. Still not completely sure of what we're going to do, but here's where we're heading.
(http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6009/5909457333_30648c64dc_b.jpg)
Ignore the couch and table and such. Temporary fodder. We're going for the Old Hollywood theme, so we bought some Hollywood stuff from a Hollywood Video that was closing its doors. That's where we got the letters (among other things to be seen later). On this wall we're having a mural painted behind the Hollywood sign depicting the hill on which the sign sits. Around that will be painted various Hollywood landmarks such as Graumann's Chinese Theater, the Capitol Records tower, Universal Studios, the Walk of Fame, etc etc etc.
Someone tossed out these 8' tall fiberglass Chinese Dragons. I played "American Picker" and grabbed them off the side of the road. Looks like they may have adorned some Chinese restaurant, but now they'll serve a far better purpose. They will be connected by a theater marquee I'm going to build which will light up reading "Graumann's Chinese Theater" and "Now Showing" and the title of whatever film strikes our fancy at the time, with the Hollywood mural underneath.
At the bottom of the wall we have (fitting with the Chinese Theater motif) 3 plaster castings of the hands and signatures of Jimmy Stewart, Clark Gable, and Humphrey Bogart, reminiscent of the legendary Graumann's courtyard with the celebrity prints in concrete.
Here's Jimmy's prints as an example. I have to do some cleaning and touch-up, but you get the idea. These came from Hollywood Video as well.

(http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6029/5909427485_8bc754f481_b.jpg)
The short wall to right of the mural will have various Egyptian and Hebrew items and will be dedicated to Cecil B. DeMille's "The 10 Commandments". A table underneath will hold some of our books on Hollywood (including of course our Heston-signed biography).
(http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6005/5909454993_bbed3c8e68_z.jpg)
Across form the Hollywood wall we have glass doors that look out over the pool. Above them I'm going to likely paint celebrity caricatures such as these.......

We need to get more shelving in here when we finally unpack all our stuff, and hopefully FIND the things we're missing. For now we have what we've unpacked so far in this entertainment center. At some point down the road the huge TV will be moved to the media room (which we haven't even BEGUN yet :o) and more shelves will be added to this unit. Here's some of what we've found and put up so far.........

Top right is the last tuxedo John Ritter ever wore (2003 People's Choice Awards). It's not going to stay displayed in that little case, but it's safe there for now. Nancy loves John Ritter (as you will soon see).
To the far left are John's signed tennis shoes.

Horrible pic, but here's a letter to Nancy from John's wife Amy Yasbeck with a pic of John wearing that tuxedo.

UGH!! Another crappy pic I'm going to have to fix so you can see the John Ritter portrait over to the far top left that our own Illoman painted for us..........a replica of the huge John Ritter mural painted on the facade of Hollywood High School. Rob (Opera Ghost) was awesome enough to provide me with the first hand photos in LA that Illoman worked from.
Bottom right, a fantastic Elvis portrait by an unknown artist that Nancy found for me. Not as blurry in real life, I assure you. And various Monsters scattered about of course.

Wait till you see the theme of the media room (one of these days)!! And in the master bedroom I'm trying to talk Nancy into a 60s-70s theme. People think we're nuts, but frankly we don't give a rip. We like what we like, and folks who don't like THAT can stay away. :D

I admire your attitudes! You and Nancy are my kind of interior decorators! We have a Harry Potter themed bedroom, a monster bedroom, a bedroom loosely based on Disney's ladies- such as Snow White, and a Piglet themed bathroom. Our living room and dining room, of course are full of haunted mansion stuff. And a Star Wars bathroom that's mixed with old and new SW stuff. We also couldn't possibly care less what people think :) Usually, new visitors will look around, but they always smile when they're done looking. We all seem to have this sense of fun design around here at the UMA. Can you imagine walking into some of these fantastic collectors' houses that we've seen around here? I could really go for a UMA monster room cross country tour!! I'll let you know if we ever get an RV! :)

So happy to know you guys are finally getting around to setting up your room! Been looking forward to this look inside Castle Scatter for some time! I think it's wonderful how you combine both your and Nancy's interests in your decor. Love the idea of having it be an all encompassing tribute to Hollywood! Makes for a very eclectic and more interesting display, for sure. Can just picture you and the family gathering round the big screen TV for a night of fun viewing. Carry on and please continue to keep us posted!

I'm having guests (again!) at the end of July, so my house will be clean-hahaha- and I'll take a picture of each of my themed rooms. They're not over the top or anything, just my nutty spin on decorating :)

Man, you ain't kiddin' Hep...........hell, I LIVE in Florida for the love of Creech!! We have a McDonalds in the local WallyWorld that has an AWESOME monster scheme. Full size Frankie, Creech, Darth Vader, and the walls are PLASTERED with Giclee prints of monster and sci-fi movie posters from the 30s through the 70s.
I stop in regularly to remind them that when they change the motif I NEED to be notified so I can get ahold of some of those goodies. That Creech WOULD look sweet in the Hollywood room.

She was a big Elvis fan, she saw him live before and we used to have a big black velvet Elvis painting in the dining room. That's the biggest John Ritter collection I've ever seen in one place. Nice Weebles Haunted House, I have a few of those Weebles, but not the house. Keep us updated.

I wasn't on pickers, that is one of our other members.
I was on ODDITIES (on Discovery Science) in the episode "3 Little Piggies".
I was looking for Chinese columns simply for decor purposes. Actually, I've always liked the door surround that the old style Chinese restaurants used to have. In a related story, growing up in NJ there was an old school Chinese restaurant with "traditional" decor; columns, door surrounds, giant Foo Dogs, phoenix and dragon, the whole deal. Then, the owner retired and left it to his 2 sons. They closed for a month to redecorate. When they reopened it looked like every other restaurant. All the "Chinese" decor was gone. A year later, they closed.

Hey everyone! I finally got my Monster Rooms mostly done! We just moved into a new house here in Charlotte, NC and have been settling in for the past month or so and I was finally able to get everything unpacked and set up. Our new home has 2 monster rooms in it (with hopefully more to come as we finish out the basement!). One of them is a small home theater and the other is devoted to nothing but building, painting, and displaying monster models! This first one is the theater (we call it the Media Room) which houses about 1/3 of my collection at a given time. I used to try and have it allon display in our old house back in South Florida but it was so much stuff that it was hard to see it all. So Now I rotate it through so it's easier to see all of it. I am eventully putting in a "Pop Culture Museum" (titled the Night Gallery) in the basement to display the rest of the collection along with original art from a variety of artists and a few of my own pieces.

The cabinet by my MST bots is my dvd storage cabinet. This is where I keep all of my sci-fi and horror DVDs. I used high-res scans of my favorite sci fi posters and did some digital color work on them. Then I printed them out to the dimensions of the inset in the doors of the cabinet and laid them in a varnished over top of them to give them a slight sheen and really make them a part of the cabinet.

As for the entertainment unit... that was quite a project. I had a large TV and a collection of game systems ranging from an original Atari all the way up to a PS3 and Xbox 360 to hook up. So finding some sort of a pre-made piece of furniture to house it all was pretty much impossible. So I went the custom route, and when going to custom route in a monster room the only way to go is big and over the top! I designed the whole thing and worked with a friend of mine who does custom carpentry work ad he built the entire thing from the ground up! As for the monster supports under the big shelf those I made. I gave him some dimensions to carve a base shape for them out of soft wood, then I used parts from some old vinyl model kits and lots and lots of Aves apoxie sculpt. I posed 'em up on the wood he carved and then sculpted the details on the base and re-sculpted much of the monsters as well as added chains "holding them back" on each one. I then primed them and painted them with some Chromatone brand warm silver paint (which is amazing metallic paint... but at $50 a quart it better be!!!) and aged them with a wash of black. I finished off the shelf inserts and the doors on the front with freeze frames done the same way I did the DVD cabinet.

The room isn't 100% done but its mostly there. I still have to make "stone base caps" to put at the bottom of the arches around the display cases to finish them off where they meet the floor and I am going to frame out each arch with some edge stones to dress them up a bit more like around the stained glass. Also in the small alcove where Frankenstein is standing, that arch gets framed out too and then I am using that space to create a life size "diorama" area. I am doing a false set of stairs coming down from a false doorway and some faux stone walls and dressings in there to give it a castle look as well and I have a full size Lugosi Dracula coming down the stairs and The Monster is going to be standing next to the stair case with a full size Dr. Pretorious I'm working on right now. Thats going to be a pretty big project so I figured I'd share these pics with you now and I'll upload some new ones once I get it completed!

That is the most spectacular display for monster kits that I have ever seen!
:o
I take it then that it's all "faux stone" lining the walls? Did you design and do all the work on building the recessed shelving within the "stone" walls yourself?

We did a lot of it. We designs and layed out the room during the blueprint stage out the house, so when we got to that room the arches and everything were framed out by the crew that framed out the whole house. So when they were done with their part we had the basic shape of the room with no dressing on it...

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/creaturerevenge/DSC_1010.jpg)
Once they got the construction on the house wrapped up we went in with this stuff called Texston which is like a rough cement that gets colored and troweled on in layers that forms the grout lines and the stone texture and then the whole thing gets painted. We worked with a crew of 3 assistant we hired to help us keep a constant mix of the stuff going. It;s difficult to do with only 1 or 2 people working on it because of how it has to be spread on the walls and treated as you go. When it sets up and gets glazed and everything the results are awesome and they are as hard as real stone so it's impossible to damage it!

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/creaturerevenge/DSC_0123.jpg)
Then we made the red curtains and hung them and mounted the shelves after we had the sliding glass doors installed. It was a bit of an uphill battle at times but it finally came together!

This would make a great tv show! :) I am so delighted by everything I have seen in your fabulous room. I just keep going back and looking at it again and again. You have really created a beautiful work of art, and I'm so honored to have seen it. How long did it take you and your crew to finish the walls and how did you know how to do all this stuff? The arches are so glorious!! Ahhhhh! I'm gonna go back and look again!

Well I guess thats a good thing since I have a ton more lifesize monster to build! Haha! When we build out the basement we are putting in a movie theater modeled after the Egyptian Theater in LA and in the lobby I am doing a life size Karloff mummy in his Sarcophagus. Thats gonna be a BIG piece! We do a really big Halloween display and walk through every year and we learned a lot of techniques for doing that. Plus we are in the film and video business so we have a lot of experience with planning and coordinating big projects and designs. I'm an artist by hobby (and side profession I guess!) too so thats a big help. If we had more time and energy we would have filmed and documented it ourselves but its one of those things where when you are working on it you get in the zone and the last thing you want to do is take yourself out of it to set up and film the whole thing so we just documented the process through still photos.

Here in the Twin Cities, the monster room of Castle Famous, which I have had the pleasure to see many times, (though it has been far too long now), has always been unbelievably impressive as well.
I contemplated posting a picture of my piddly (piddeley? pittly?) little room but you all put me to shame, and I'd be embarrassed to show it now! But, there are some awe-inspiring collections here!

Amen UP!! This isn't a competition. Some have more resources, some have less. Some have huge collections, some much smaller (like mine). NO collection is insignificant, and every single one of us has things that are going to be of interest to the group.
We're here to celebrate our hobby. I've seen whole threads revolve for days over some little toy, or just a photo from when we were kids, and it filled the whole community with fun. Don't deprive your fellow MonsterKids of that just because you can't match someone elses collection or display. I'd dare say that 99% of us can't compete with an awesome display like this........but that's not what it's about anyway. I enjoy seeing it all!!

I enjoy seeing everyone's collections. I once made the mistake of thinking my stuff was unworthy in the face of all these fellas with expensive one of a kind masterpieces (such as silicone Mike Hill sculpted museum pieces), the rarest of rare autographs, and things actually used in the films of old I love.
Then it dawned on me. I dont make as much money as these fellas do, and we are on different planes of collecting. Some folks like their 7 inch NECA Predator figures just as much as the Sideshow Predator. Becuase its what they can reasonably afford to collect at this stage in their life. Age, experience, finances, and random luck have a lot to do with what you can collect. But dont be put off if you feel your collection isnt "as good as" someone else's. Because some of us here find just as much beauty and coolness in a handful of turquoise Marx Monsters from the 1960's as we do in the $4,000.00 piece owned by someone who is able to more reasonably afford such a treasure. Post your pics and share! That goes for the owners of the $4,000.00 silicone treasures as well. I live vicariously through the photos of your items. Items one day I may be able to afford. Then again....maybe not, lol. 8)

Keep those pictures coming! And if it's been a while since you've shown your monster room, PLEASE show your collections again!

My Monster Room will share its place with the family library and the House arsenal- i.e. All my sharp, pointy, explosive or otherwise deadly instruments.

Marvelous room. From the red drapes behind the models to the placement of the models (not cluttered or on top of each other).
The glass shelves and doors to protect them from dust are great. Looks like you did a fantastic job painting them also.

Ya know, I never did get around to posting pics of my finished monster room - because it still isn't done! Anybody else have this problem? I have the majority of my collection up on the shelves, but I keep thinking of little things & added touches to shape it up more to my liking. Keep planning on making some background artwork for the walls behind the figures and extra junk like that. Meanwhile, after all these years of waiting till I had the space & room (which, now I have), I'm not satisfied enough to just - display it all! What a loser! Dammit, I'm gonna get going on my room! I finally have an awesome audience (you guys!) who actually dig & appreciate this stuff and I'm dragging my heels! Dragging my knuckles? Sure - no problem and even understandable... but my heels?
2 weeks, tops - and then some pics!

While you shameless sloths are dragging various body parts, we have the mural artist due on Monday to paint the wall with the Hollywood sign,and we finally found the box with the autographed photos so those are up now.
In the next few weeks we'll have another mural done with Bela as the centerpiece. No pressure guys!! (wink)
Seriously,we are nowhere NEAR done either,but it's still fun to post as you go.After all,are any of us EVER actually going to be DONE? I think not. Waiting for a collector to actually be finished before posting is like waiting for Keanu Reeves to get an Oscar before you ever go to another movie. An exercise in futility

Haunted House, show pics man! Peeple here just like seeing monsters displayed. It's whatever you dig that matters.
My little shelf just got downsized to a small Dracula "corner", but it has my '62 Aurora Drac, my Silver Screen Sideshow Drac and a framed lobby print. I love taking looks just to see it.

That's what happens when you, your wife, your daughter and your mother in law live in a 2 bedroom townhouse with no garage or basement.
She wants walk in closets and I want a garage.
My other hobby is tools. I have a CMan 26" 5 drawer top chest and about 4 other hand boxes, augmented with countless other tools neatly organized in a crawlspace/storage closet. One day I will have space to show off my tools, monsters and comics.
Until then, I man up and lock down the remote!

Well, that's a different story Thomas. You made it sound like your treasures were forcibly relegated to some nondescript corner. Now, the man that recognizes his wife comes first, and willingly sacrifices what he has, is wise indeed.

Since we are talking about our lady's I have to say that mine HATESgore movies,big bug movies,50's Sci-Fi and can barely watch the CLASSICS. She does love stuff like 30 Days Of Night and any 70's to modern horror movie as long as there are not guts and blood flying all over the place. She also greatly enjoys her ,what I call , Vampire Porn ,aka vampire and supernatural erotica. Lucky me. thrhrt ::)
She also really likes alot of my props and masks. 8)

WL, our wives have some similar tastes.
Mine can't stand anything B&W or too old. She did enjoy 30 Days and Let The Right One In,. She loves Sci-Fi and Fantasy, True Blood is about the closest to vamp porn she gets and unfortunately...she is a twilight fan.
She's cool with my collections, indulges Halloween with me, knows all the classic monsters and some of Drac's famous lines, she just won't watch them.
Yes, I am very lucky.

I'll probably post the Hollywood mural before it's done. I still have to paint the letters white (they got airbrushed over) and put the miniature Peg Entwhistle atop the "H" ready to make her plunge into legend. We picked up a 1932 New York Times newspaper about her suicide off the Hollywood sign (front page news) and will mount that by the mural. I know.........we're ghouls. ;D
We decided to use the Chinese columns around the bigscreen instead of incorporating them into a display case, so the TV will serve as the movie screen.Have to build a marquee, make and hang the red velvet curtain, etc etc etc...... Just started that, so pics won't be for a while for that one likely.
I just hope the Hollywood Sign pics come out, because we decided to do it at sunset, so it's basically pretty dark. I'll snap the best shots I can get and post them tomorrow.

As you can see, only the "H" has been painted so far.........they were all sprayed over and I haven't finished painting over them yet. Doesn't show well, but at the top of the mural is the night sky and stars just coming into view over the sunset. The colors are pretty cool, lots of blues and purples on the mountains.

Which monsters are you going to paint in the foreground? King Kong would look good.

Have UP climb atop a barstool nude and have pics taken from all angles (and I MEAN ALL ANGLES) so you can have your model to work from... better yet---------just have him come down for a weekend and do that in person in your own den. Now am I an idea man----------or WHAT!?? 8)

YES, absolutely. You'll get your *regular* fee-------but I'll come down as well and stand on a bar stool nude FOR FREE... not including the meals and lodging that Gary will provide gratis for the 2-3 weeks we'll be there, of course. Now THAT is a deal.

Yeah, we got ours for I believe $350 -it was several years ago. When we bought our house we allowed ourselves one luxury item, and that was it. But we love it, and use it almost every weekend. I use peanut oil to pop the corn and it comes out very tasty.

Yes, those are the four MPC monster-bust kits from the 70s that were re-issued recently. Never had them as a kid but always loved looking at them in the back pages of FM, so it was great to finally get a set (though I wish MPC had kept the original box art design). They have such a great 70s design to them, especially the Vampire and the Werewolf, they remind me of the Groovy Ghoulies! Always thought the Ape was the odd one out from the set, in a good way. Here's a couple of close-up pics of them, and a few of my other kits and goodies.

No that is a recent figure that came out about 12 months ago...I think the Creature was also released on it's own but there was also an 'exclusive' edition that came with the lagoon base and Julie Adams figure. They also released a Mummy at the same time, which came in an 'exclusive' pack that included his sarcophagus.

My wife loved that series. Either way, a hot statue.

Thanks, glad you enjoy the pics! As a kid, I always dreamed of having my own 'Ackermansion' when I grew up....looking at photos of Forry's collection was always one of the highlights of FM for me. I definately like to think of my pad as it's own little 'pop-culture carnival'.....luckily my partner is also a collector (of completely different things) so she has her own apartment in the same block as me (directly below mine, in fact)!

Glad everyone enjoys the pics - collections are meant to be shared and enjoyed by everyone, not hidden away and kept private! Marsattacks666, no I actually live (and grew up in) Melbourne, Australia...but I have a fascination for vintage Vegas, first visted there as a kid on a family vacation in 1980, my 6th and most recent visit was back in 2006, where I attended the Viva Las Vegas fest that year.
I guess I strated collecting back in the late-70s when I discovered my first issue of FM, and then my granddad found a partially built Aurora Phantom sitting on top of a pile of trash in front of someone's house (it was waste collection day). Being in Australia there was less monster stuff readily available, so I started by buying horror movie paperback novelizations at the local secondhand bookstores, then discovered a shop in Melbourne called Space Age Books which stocked back issues of FM, Creepy, fanzines and old lobby cards and posters, and I was off!

Graveyardtramp: Great collection -- really cool monster, exploitation and tiki stuff. I love the vintage paperbacks, especially. I liked seeing my friends Max and George's "Men's Adventure" book on your shelf! I'd love to attend Viva some year - I did make it to two of the Green Bay Rockabilly Fests -- but have never made it to the Vegas event.

Do not waste you money going to Viva. Trust me, the last two Viva's were a bust. It seems to get worse every year. I use to enjoy Viva.

You need an assistant! But until you get one, R&R sound like a good idea- I'm no physician, but I repeated lifting is what seems to lay us all out! No matter waht the age!

It's not that bad, but it is painful and I am basically stuck in bed . i did a little work today, mostly hanging pictures, no lifting, but even the little bit of stretching i did was more than enough.It is really killing me because besides wanting to get my monster room set up, i want to go through my boxes for some goodies to send to UP! :-\

Here are photos of my horror/monster collection taken at various points during the 1990's. The last time my collection was displayed like you see here was in about 1997, ever since then most of my collection has been in boxes in various parts of the house that I am living in now. The spare room that I have has my monster room is tiny and now I can only have a select few things out, every so often I delve into the boxes to either look at stuff or need to find something or to keep out on display etc.

Hi George
The Brontosauras figure is made of rubber and also is battery operated, it walks nice and slowly with its un-reinforced neck moves from side to side. I don't think it says who or where it was made.

I did used to spend a lot of time in that room, this was my bedroom also and boy do I miss having a big enough place to have it all displayed again, plus it was easier finding something to read or look at, now I have to keep going through boxes most of the time.

the wolfman game was one of my holy grail items so i only thought it fitting to make a kind of shrine to it and other 1960's wolfman items :)
i have a soft spot for 60's i have a 1965 mustang and my nick name in high school was 60's chick due to my clothing a hair style...i am really excited to start adding more vintage wolfmen to my collection.

Unfortunately the Hasbro Wolfman board game is usually very costly if it's in any kind of decent condition.

I got it for $150, it is complete the board is in great shape and so are the wolfman pawns. i have never spent that much on a wolfman item. i have been told i got a good deal for the game but i pride myself on getting my wolfmen on the cheap so it still stings a little. ultimately i am really happy with it i find the graphics very inspiring artistically, so i really am getting a lot of enjoyment out of it.

You got a good deal. You'll have to ante up if you ever want to add the original Aurora model kits or a Wolfman monster wallet to your collection.

It's a great piece adding that extra something to a very fine room. Rooms as good as yours always make me want to go out and slay the neighbours. That's how I know they're really good ones!

Werewolfwoman, your dedication to all things lycanthropic is admirable! Love the way you have displayed your stuff; such an assortment of eras and different media. I couldn't help but notice, in one corner it looks like you have some Shag Haunted Mansion post cards? Very nice collection and well displayed.

And what a surperb shrine to the game etc. I don't remember the 60's at all, I was born in 1967 but I can really understand your love for the era, such a stylish decade in so many ways and certainly the best decade for monster toys.

yup shag postcards, i have framed the box set and have a little haunted mansion theme around the bedroom, i only have a few HM items but i hope to add more items to give the feel of a bedroom in the haunted mansion.
and thanks so much guys for all the positive feedback on the wolfman wall, it is tough to show other people my room because it's tough to gauge reactions but i always know that here i will always get a ton of support and appreciation for a adding to my little wolf's den

Awesome displays Monsterscud and Werewolfwoman! Here are some pics of my work in progress Monster Man cave. The hernia is healing up pretty good so i hve been doing a little here and there-just no lifting! I have some shelves and boxes that need to be moved before I can really dig into it though, have to get my sons to help.

RedKing- That looks like a ton of square footage for a monster room! It looks like you have room for everything you have left to display- congratulations! Is it an office area or a dedicated monster room? I really need a room that doesn't function as anything but a place to sit and enjoy my monster stuff. You really have some fantastic stuff! What is the story on that cool beast that's up in the rafters? And I also love alll your posters and artwork. You haver done a terrific job hanging everything on the walls! I'm always looking for a new wall to hang stuff- but I'm running out of space!

thanks Charp. It is a dedicated Monster Room but will also serve as my workshop for art and models. the vampire in the rafters is a 12 inch dracula fron van Helsing. i didn't care much for the movie but the figure is cool and he looks perfect up in the corner there! Alas I do not think i will have enough room for all of my stuff. I plan to eventually replace the bookcases trhat I use with shelves I will build myself, but for now I should have enough room for all of my kits and most of my figures, i will just have to put most of my books into storage for now.

Man RK you don't part with anything do you.?
I watch a movie 2-3X and decide if it is a keeper or not. If not it goes in the Biz bag and out of my collection. I don't have the room to have a whole 4' shelf of movies I "may watch" at some point in the future.
If you don't mind I would like a better pic of your painted Marx monsters. I have done a few myself.

Hep I checked some of my kits and it looks like I have quite a bit of repair work to do-many of them have broken even though I packed them as good as I could :-\

I guess so scatter!The poor things want to be out on their shelves not cooped up in boxes! I hung some more posters today on the slanted part of the ceiling that will br over my worktable and got some better shots of my painted Marx monsters(and the Star Trek books behind them) as well as the new Dracula/vampire bust I picked up at the Dollar Tree today. It goes really well with a werewolf bust I got a year or two ago.

Man Mike , You did a nice job on those Marx Figs. I need to get some of the tan reboots so I can paint them the way they should be done. Black primer and dry brushed with washes.I painted these back over 20 years ago. They have been thru 4 moves and have a few chips.

I used gloss paint with gloss primer on Creech for that "wet" look.

Thanks guys! Nice job on the Marx paints WL! I also start with a black basecoat and then use drybrush and washes for color on most of my kits. My Creech needs some gloss drybrush cause he looks very dry! On my Aurora kit and the big Tsukuda kit I repainted earlier in the year before we moved I used a gold drybrush that really looked nice and made him seem wet.

Thanks marsattacks. I got quite a lot done in the past couple days-pics to come tomorrow or saturday! All the shelves are set up , I hung more pics, got my books out and got some more figures set up. I have to repair most of my kits, and have done a few already that just needed to be put back together, but many need to have paint touched up or complete new paint jobs.

The Gamera figures here were made by Sega (the video game company-I guess they also make figures)around 2003 as prizes in crane machines. There is also a 1995 Gamera that I have to put out, but I haven't found him yet. The Giant Robo figure has a button on his back that makes his eyes light up!

LOL Bane. that's water damage-the house is very old(about 200 years) and there was an old chimney on the outside of the wall there that fell and that made a leak. The area where my room is a loft type area that i think was servant's quarters back in the old days. I plan to paint the room eventually, but I should try and clean the water stains. As for alphabetical order on my Marvel Essentials, not a bad idea. With the DC Showcase books, I arranged them according to the color of the spines from green to brown, because the mismatched colors bothered me, so you aren't the only one going to the rubber room! :P

I have a 10 or 12 inch captain Kirk vinyl kit that will go behind the larger Kirk,Spock and McCoy figures here once i get him repainted.the small figures are from hamilton in 1991 for the original series; 25th anniversary, the small Enterprise is made by HotWheels and came out a couple years ago and the big Enterprise is from the new movie. I don't know the origin of the bigger Kirk,Spock and McCoy figures. they are about 6 or 8 inches tall. A friend gave them to me about 7 years ago.

You can barely see it, but I added the reissue Spock kit in the back here.
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f24/RedKing71/IMG_7987.jpg)
Most of these monsters are reissues from Marusan of an early 70s series of original kaiju characters.The small figures are from the TV series Spectreman.The Goldar from Space Giants is a Banpresto( a division of Bandai) reissue of the 7-s Bullmark figure.

More of the Marusan original monsters and small Spectreman figures plus a glow in the dark reissue of the Marusan Guilala-the goofy space monster from The X From Outer Space, one of my favorite Japanese monster movies.

More cool monster goodness RK!! Lovin' it!! BTW, when I was a kid my room upstairs was a former attic with a ceiling like that.........the deep slant downward. Made a great place for posters you could see while laying on the bed!! That room is going to rock when it's done!

RedKing, while everyone else is digging your figures, I'm drooling over your incredible library!!! I see a lot of books that I own: The Superman from the 30's to the 70's, all those Frazettas, etc, and I'm extremely jealous for your MagicImage collection!!!! I've been *slowly* building my collection when and if I find them cheap. Congrats, on a wonderful collection of books!

Thanks guys! I am really fond of all my stuff and I love sharing it with you guys! it's nice to have others who also appreciate it. Illoman, I got all of my Magicimage books cheap on eBay about 8 years ago, now it's almost impossible to find them, at least at affordable prices! I Love the Superman 30s-70s book-I got it at a library book sale for about a buck a few years ago. I wish I could find the Batman one. My cousin had that one when we were kids and I loved that book! Frazetta is, or sadly, was such a great illustrator and painter. I miss him dearly! Not much new in the room today, I switched out a few things and started another shelf:
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f24/RedKing71/IMG_8016.jpg)
This is going to be an all kaiju shelf. The top shelf is 12 inch Godzillas-L-R Banpresto G2000 Maqutte crane prize kit,Bandai US Final wars Godzilla figure,Banpresto 1954 Godzilla crane prize kit,Max Factory 1989 Godzilla kit
Second shelf 12 inch Gamera kits:L-R Rocket pro 1965 Gamera,Sega 1995 Plasma Gamera both are crane prize kits. Small figure is a Kaiyodo 1999 Gamera figure. I also have another 12 inch Gamera kit, a 1983 Bandai Real Hobby Series 1966 Gamera that I have to find yet.
Thirs Shelf-Vintage and vinyage style Toho Monsters:L-R Bandai 1992 reissue Bullmark Megalon,Marmit Monster Heaven series 1955 Angilas special edition(the regular version was dark blue),Marmit Monster Heaven series 1962 Godzilla, Marusan reissue "Giant Gorilla" aka King Kong,Bandai reissue Bullmark Ghidrah,Marmit Monster Heaven series Varan. Small figures are a 1978 bendie Godzilla and a 4 inch Imperial Godzilla
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f24/RedKing71/IMG_8015.jpg)
I moved the Lone Ranger autograpgh repro photo up to make room for Bandai reissue Bullmark Rodan and Angilas
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f24/RedKing71/IMG_8013.jpg)
Switched out the plush sasquatch with M1 vintage styled War of the Gargantuas set. I custom painted these two-they came as unpainted flesh colored vinyl.
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f24/RedKing71/IMG_8014.jpg)
The workbench-you can see several works in progress, kits that need repairing and repainting. The large headless wrestler figure I am customizing into the eurospy/wrestler/hero Superargo.

I like the way RedKing uses the spare space in front of his books to display his monster figures, of which he has a disproportionate quantity of the really big fellows such as Godzilla!

Wicked collection RedKing, I REALLY love the Gamera and Gyaos figures. Also noticed from the books you have Lovecraft and the Essential Captain Marvel in your collection. Definitely a man of taste. A warning though, if Scatter ever finds out where you live the Three Stooges figures might dissapear. ;D

Glad you guys are diggin' my room so far. I'll be p[osting more update pics in a few days. I do have an inordinate amount of kaiju toys-Japanese monsters are my first love, and there are literally thousands of toys for all the different studios characters. My model collection is definitely more even in terms of characters. The kits are the last things I need to do to get the room complete, but the shelves will take a while to get set up as I have a lot of repair work and repainting to do. Illo-I love Moe's autobiography-I've had it since I was in ninth grade back in the mid 80s. In fact I even used it for a book report once!

Most of the Godzillas in the last 2 pics are limited edition or theater exclusive figures from Bandai and are translucent. I LOVE these things, they look so cool. I want to put lights in them! Most of the figures in these pics are 7-8 inch scale, but there is one shelf of 6 inchers and the Mechagodzilla shelf has all sizes from 6 inches up to 12 inches!

You can't tell too good from the pics,. but I found that the 12 inch Hasbro Invisible Man has a very nice transucent likeness of Claude Rains under the dumb looking bandage head mask that it comes with!

These are my lovely wife's contribution to the Monster Room-12 inch Xena Warrior Princess figures from the mid 90s. They are very nicely sculpted and the costumes are excellently made-there are 4 different Xenas, 2 Gabrielles and 1 Ares God of war. She also has several smaller Xena action figures I want to get out including one of Bruce Campbell as Autolycus.

Hepcat - Thanks for posting that video - love The Kinks, and "Apeman" is near & dear to my heart.
Moonshadow - I'm pretty sure it's "fogging", but it's fun to sing it both ways ;)!

I don't think it's "foggin'". I think they just put that in the lyric sheet to avoid complications. Listen closely to the original studio version and you'll see what I mean. BTW, great collection!

You're probably right, Mord - I think it's in the "official" lyrics as "foggin'", but it sure sounds like they slipped in their own word!

I seriously have been laughing at this for like the last 5 minutes.. I know people ( fellow collectors ) who are also this way, so it makes it even funnier. I myself, am the opposite.. I wanna see all my monsters. I try to usually buy 2, so i have one out to play with and touch and one, NIB to display/archive... but you are the true archivist. I dont know how you do it.. .! doesnt it drive you insane?? id wanna rip all those bags off and SEEEEE the awesomeness that lies within/beneath... lol.

Scatter...that Kong is the Mcfarlane Kong figure fyi. Not a kit. Just thought I'd let you know in case you want to pick it up yourself.
At this point I'm pretty satisfied with my collection...but I've left a lot of space for any new Gamera (a new film maybe or anything dealing with the Showa era, i.e the old school Gamera stuff is where my heart belongs) or Creature from the Black Lagoon figures that might catch my eye someday.

Yeah man there has to be. I'm just far too lazy to build kits though lol so I can't help you there. Whatever you do, make sure your Kong collectables are based on the REAL Kong, and not Jackson's big gorilla. Kong needs to be a little more humanoid then just a straight enlargened version of an ape. My two cents at least.
Oh, and everyone needs at least one Gillman collectable ;D
I don't like the Sideshow sculpts for some reason so for the moment, the only Gillman item I have is this guy:
http://www.toymania.com/news/messages/4598.shtml (http://www.toymania.com/news/messages/4598.shtml)
I like how it's a little bit of a more extreme version of the Gillman without being a total reworking. And it manages to avoid one thing that I hate when people try to update the gillman-they didn't give him teeth!! I hate a toothy Gillman lol. Nitpicks I know.

The glasses are Anchor-hocking circa 1960's. Wrapped in acid-free comic book bags. ;D
I dig 'em.
I really like the Anchor-Hocking glasses! They don't actually need to be wrapped in acid-free bags though since they're not paper....

You didn't read his statement completely, "I dig 'em."!! He obviously buries these in his backyard or crawl space for safe keeping and will "dig 'em" up when he wants to look at them, thus the use of the comic bags!!

i would love to have the wolfman Anchor-Hocking glass but they are a little expensive and i am so accident prone. i would probably cry if i spent so much on one and broke it. I think ill wait until i have some nice display cases with nice glass door to keep it nice and safe from my klutzy reach.

Definitely not cheap. I use worry about breaking those glasses, until I displayed
them in a case.

The glasses are sweet. But the display case is a wise idea. Years ago I lost the Superman and Wonder Woman glasses from my Taco Bell/Pepsi set due to my foolishness in putting them in the cupboard. On separate occasions two idiots house guests broke them. Now all my glasses are kept in cases. Although if I had doubles, I might use one set. But only for me to drink from!

On a similar note, at work we sell a *killer* set of Pink Floyd glasses! The artwork is great, featuring the flying pig from Animals, various album covers, etc. I considered buying them, but then realized I would never want to use them. Years and years ago a friend gifted me with a set of Looney Tunes glasses, with a drive-in theme to them. They look very retro-50's. They are in a box in my closet. I guess if I had space to display a set of glasses like that I would spring for the Floyd ones. As it is right now I just can't see buying them.

SR, your collection ROCKS!!! Nice variety of stuff!! In the very first photo that Frankenstein head: I have that same one with a different card stock on it. I think it is one of the best Karloff likenesses I've ever seen. That's something that has always bugged me about licensed stuff: they pay big bucks for the license fees and they put out an item that doesn't really favor the guy they put all that money into!

Hey BlackLagoon, i would say do a ebay search with "mickey haunted house" that's how i found mine.
(*at*)Illoman I know what you mean with the likenesses of the actors, Dracula is the worst, stuff rarely looks like Lugosi.

SR that is quite the sweet collection you have!! I finally have my monster room, otherwise known as my chamber of horrors, finished! I added a couple new shelves, moved some things around and am happy. I still have some posters to hang and/or move, but the shelves are done. i even left some room for some unbuilt kits I have in the wings. there is still alot of figures I did not put out, mostly Bandai kaiju from the '90s Godzilla movies. I wanted to more or less concentrate on characters from the classic eras of the 1930s -1970s. These are the movies I grew up watching and the ones that I love the most. Enjoy gang!

Great collection man! I really dig the King Kong vs. Godzilla shelf in particular!
My only complaint....going by your screen name I would have thought you'd have more Red King figures ;)
I'm selling an early X Plus Red King 1 and 2 if you ever become interested man. And really, great collection (the Gamera vs Jiger (Monster X) poster is frickin sweet!)

Great job! What an incredible smorgasbord of figurines! From watching all those movies though, I never would have guessed that all those monsters could live in harmony on your shelves.

Cleaned out the upstairs room to be a studio/guest room. Not quite sure yet what form it'll take, except I know I'm adding a futon.

Oh, I like pterodactyls! They've always been one of my favourite animals.
I see you have some painted Uncle Milton Marx Universal monster recasts. Do you have any original Marx Universal monsters or other Marx figures in there some place as well? How about MPC Pop-Tops or the smaller MPC Weird Monsters?
How about thylacines? I think you should start a shelf for those.

The Marx Creature looks like he's singing "Lean On Me" to The Phantom and I do believe Gamera is trying to look up the 50' Woman's dress!
Unbelievable room! I mean it! I don't believe it's there. I think it's in some weird dimension where thousands of monsters, luchadors & superheroes hang out.
And I want to go there.

Thanks guys. I love sharing my collection with other monter kids that get it. I don't have any original Marx figures-yet! I also don't have any MPC pop tops, but they are on my list as well. I do have 1 of the small sized MPC weird monsters, the Frankenstein type one. I had a bunch of them as a kid int he early 80s, all in glow in the dark plastic. I had a playset of some kind with a castle and other similar sized plastic knights, vikings and gargoyle type guys as well as a bag of them. Unfortunately the one Franky is the only one that survived. :( Mark, you're on to me-I created a dimensional vortex and was able to tap into the monster toy dimension LOL! My problem is I like so many different genres-classic monsters, modern monsters, Japanese monters from movie and TV shows, Mexican wrestlers, comics, Italian Hercules movies, 50s B movies, grindhouse movies, eurohorror, Trek, Dr Who,anime, clasic animation, classic comedy, classic westerns, etc etc! I try and get omething from each genre, some obviously have more product than others.

That was the set indeed! The viking and other monter type guys came from a different similar set I got around the same time. The Enter the Dragon figure came out back around 1999 or 2000. They are really nice but I was disappointed they did not do Jim Kelly as well.

About a month ago I started to redo my room, it's a much slower process than I had hoped. It's like putting a puzzle together, gotta move an entire shelf for one piece etc... It's slowly but surely getting coming together.

It's come a long way in 4+ years. Still has a little ways to go before I'm happy with the displays, but I've found most of what I was looking for.

Last weekend my husband and I went to see our friend Larry in the Bay Area. Some of you actually met Larry at Monsterpalooza. Anyway, he has created a fantastic tiki lounge in his home. Take a look below.
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/TheBigKahuna.jpg)
That's Larry in his incredible tiki man cave. But what I want to focus on was his newest addition. Right outside the tiki lounge, in his entry way, he has created his own Black Lagoon -or Black Fountain, as the case may be.
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/TheCreature.jpg)
(http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a73/walkie20/DSCN0352.jpg)
He used one of those Rubies grave walkers, a fountain, some fake moss and a lot of tikis and voila! The Creature is climbing up from the depths to menace (or is it welcome?) guests. I was just stunned at how well this turned out. The pictures don't do it justice, it's absolutely amazing!

Thanks! I had a Laurel one that matched the smaller Hardy but it tipped and the legs shattered. I'm in the process of rebuilding his bottom half just for fun. The bigger one used to be a lamp, I believe (you can see the pole sticking out from his head; I picked it up at a garage sale). I'm thinking about cutting off the pole and fixing the top of his hat.
A couple downstairs:

Thank you! I haven't counted but a few thousand. 99% horror of course.

Yeah I am building a new shelving system since this just isn't cutting it. I mostly buy my posters from eBay but every now and then I'll find a site that has some reasonable stuff.

Hey, Jimm , where do you find some of those cabinets these days? I remember the ones with the fold up door per shelf from the late 90's but when I went looking for my own in the early 200's they only had the sort with full doors in front. Can these be hand these days at any retailers?
Thanks!

MY husband got a new camera recently (he's a real shutterbug) and he wanted to try it out so he took a bunch of pictures of my monster room, aka The Sanctum. It's been awhile since I posted shots of the whole thing so I figured why not. Please excuse the dust -I dusted it a few weeks ago but living in the desert, the dust tends to come back quickly. Anyway, hope you enjoy and if you see something you're curious about, let me know! Gonna break this into a couple of posts.

Thanks folks. Mike, the comic covers are really posters, from two sources. The longer ones are centerfolds from the magazines that came with some of my Eaglemoss lead figurines. The others are from a Marvel calendar that I've purchased the last two years. Each month is a different classic cover, with a black border. Great mini-posters!

Wow! I like the way you have a reclining chair in your monster room so you can sit back and take comfort and delight in absorbing all the ambience. The one thing that just doesn't belong though is the TV. That room should be reserved for reading and quiet contemplation. Well maybe a stereo, but no TVs allowed!

But has she sworn an affidavit to that effect? And even so, could she be trusted not to cheat and turn on the Oprah Winfrey Show in that room? Better to just not allow the TV in the room I still say.

The TV is an essential part of the Sanctum, as it is used to watch movies that are not allowed on The Linebacker's TV downstairs. For example, the last two DVDs watched on the TV were "Half-Human" and "Beast Wishes:The Fantastic World of Bob and Kathy Burns." Nothing better than kicking back and watching monster and sci fi flicks while surrounded by monsters, aliens, robots, and super-heroes!
Steve, I'll add a few more pics of the other shelves soon. I had to switch to my laptop this afternoon as my desktop has decided to no longer work... >:(

Rob, the Gemora button is a flicker -it changes from Gemora to gorilla! I bought some buttons and picked up some cards at the tiny Charlie Gemora booth at Monsterpalooza this year. Funny thing is, it was the first place I stopped when the convention doors opened, and we were so excited to look around, that I quickly bought the buttons and moved on, telling myself I would come back later and talk to the folks at the booth. But I never did! I'm not sure what they were promoting. I went to their website that was listed on the card but it was essentially one page and said almost nothing. SO I'm not sure what the deal was, but the button is cool.
Mark -thanks buddy! When I see your art up in my room it always makes me smile. :)

Thanks TZ -the small Lawgiver statue on Dr. Zaius' base came with that figure. The other Lawgiver to the right, as well as the Statue of Liberty, are both from Kubrick POTA sets. I bought them loose from a local toy store.

That room should be reserved for whatever the ba-jeepers Karen needs it to be reserved for. What's the point of having it if it doesn't have what you need to enjoy it? I don't have a 'sanctum' When I get one--------a big, old flat screen will be part of it. With classic horror being played on a loop!

Sweet room and set up Karen!!I'm trying to convince the wife that I need a TV and dvd playedr for my monster room, but I don't think she's buying it. Actually I need new shelves, or wood to make new shelves first, as most of my old ones (and they were OLD) did not survive the move. All of my monsters and heroes are trapped in boxes for the time being. :(

I agree, in my geek-room I've got me main desk-top pc with 20" monitor and a second pc hooked up to me hd 24 inch monitor mainly for media, all on me over size desk. Great for all the good streaming stuff on the interwebs, dvd, and hd broadcasts via comcast. Kind of a geek-central control tower, I love it! Watching Laurel and Hardy on MeTV as I type this!

I have a 13" tv with a built in vhs player in my room. It sits on my drawing table just a couple of feet from my face. I set some of my smaller figures around it (including the matchbox Munsters coach) and pretend they're at UP's Drive-In. Just the other night, had a triple feature of I WAS A TEENAGE FRANKENSTEIN, THE UNDEAD & IT! THE TERROR FROM BEYOND SPACE. THE UNDEAD was late in starting, and The Munsters and some others starting honking their horns!
Though I'm getting rid of several vhs tapes (if I ever get them packed up!), I'm keeping a lot of them because it's a blast to watch them, even on my miniature screen!

Moonshadow, that is an excellent room with dome great collectibles.
Personally, I like the TV in the room. I would want to run monster movie marathons in that chair whenever time allowed.

I will be moving to a new place in a couple months. Is it bad that when I am looking at townhouses, that one of my first thoughts is "Hey, this would be a great monster room!"
Then a few minutes later "Hey, there's no fridge!" or "Hmmm, this place needs some painting."
Priorities.

MY husband got a new camera recently (he's a real shutterbug) and he wanted to try it out so he took a bunch of pictures of my monster room, aka The Sanctum. It's been awhile since I posted shots of the whole thing so I figured why not. Please excuse the dust -I dusted it a few weeks ago but living in the desert, the dust tends to come back quickly. Anyway, hope you enjoy and if you see something you're curious about, let me know! Gonna break this into a couple of posts.

All the wall art is hung so you can enjoy it and it's all so perfectly arranged. I can imagine how relaxing it is to hang out and listen to music in there ahhhhhh.... You have a wonderful room AND very good taste. Oh...and I like your Disney pins too!

they can still be found, they go for about $125.00 ea. still have the boxes in the attic (of course) and the Glenn Strange was also a gift from my wife
(whom by the way can be seen in one of the pictures of the shelves directly under the Monster Abbey Road spin-off)! she actually bought this at the
local Mall (Chicago) and only paid 15 bucks for it, it's signed: Yanny 2001 New York City... I know no other details of it...

Hey Char, I started collecting pins when I went to Disneyland in February 2009. I really did some big time pin trading when we went to Walt Disney World later that year. I have focused on pins that have an aloha or tiki theme, but I also have others I like, like Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey, pins with Walt, etc. The best thing is, on our trip last year I finally got my husband into it, and he was worse than I was! When I get some time I'll take pictures of the shadow boxes. it's a nice way to display your favorites.

Considering Florida has the death penalty, would you like to rephrase that?
Every day I wake up here it's like being on death row.........and at this point I'm ready to pull the switch myself.

What's sad is seeing the great collections of stuff early in this thread posted by members who don't ever come around to post anymore. Always leaves me wondering why not? Did they just lose interest?

Posted back on #106, added a few extra things so here is a new pic. I don't think people lose interest, they just don't have anything new to show.

I finally got some of my Monster Room set up. I figured I had enough shelves to at least get my DVDs out because I was tired of rooting around in boxes everytime I want to watch a movie.I managed to get all my DVDs out and organized and put up some of my favorite toys and hang some posters. The models will have to wait until I get more shelves unfortunately and I still need to root through boxes for books, Hopefully I can either buy or build the rest of the shelving I need sometime soon.

Thanks guys. I had pics of my Sideshow figures up too, but they seem to have disappeared. I'll post them tomorrow.
dafunk-I LOVE your Sideshow glass case and the Creature gravewalker above it is the perfect touch! I have been seriously collecting for probably 25 years, since I was in High school!
Illoman-I made the Screwy Squirrel cel myself. The background is acrylic on canvas paper and Screwy and his pal I painted on a sheet of acetate. Cels are a little tricky to do because you have to paint them backwards and usually they take 2 or 3 coats so there is no streaking in the paint visible from the front. I have a pad of acetate and have done several cels, mostly as gifts, the Screwy Squirrel one is the only one I kept for myself. The Bugs cel next to Screwy is a give away from WB that was in a special 50th anniversary Bugs magazine in 1990. It's a scene from Box Office Bunny, the 50th anniversary short made that year.
hep-It's totally a work in progress. Unfortunately I don't have the funds for new shelves at the moment, so I can't gett he rest of my stuff up for awhile!
Mark-I hope you noticed that excellent self portrait you sent me hanging up! I'll have more of your cool art that you sent me up when I am done too buddy!

Thank you sir! The Remco minis are my fave Universal toys for sentimental reasons(and the set I have is from my childhood) but the Sideshow 8 inchers are a close second. I really wish they would have continued that line instead of concentrating on the 12 inch figures.

Quote from: RedKing on August 21, 2012, 09:31:36 AMI agree. I could easily see a hundred different figures Sideshow could have done from all the great Universal films. The only problem would be finding a large enough customer base to make it profitable for them. Oh well, the 15 they did are incredible.

Just took some pictures today. Why has to be this so expensive. I come from Europe, shipping costs are insane and when you come to customs - 25% taxes! Man! Anyway here it is:

It's hard to have a monster room when in a dorm, so here's our living room. My TV, Blu Ray, and Monster collection, plus my PS3 and roomies XBox and games.

Since it is going to be months before I can afford the shelves I need,I figured I'd put some posters up so my monster room doesn't have bare walls.

Welllll Mike, I did poke a pin through the back of the sideshow boxes! :angel: Horror101, the Shogun Godzilla is one of my all time favorite toys and a HUGE part of my childhood! Unfortunately he is the only one of the large scale monsters that I was able to replace-I got this one 21 years ago at a thrift store when I was in college for 20 bucks. He is in great shape. Now if by some miracle I could only find the Shogun Rodan, Kenner Alien and Harryhausen Kraken for 20 bucks!LOL ::)

I've been waiting for this day for a long time. Finally got most of my monster room set up and pictured.
Quite a collection, Terry! Love that Tim Burton stuff!

I've been watching this thread for a while wanting to add my room to the collection of other outstanding collections I've seen here. Though I've been a mask collector since the mid 70's , I really didn't start this room until about 3 years ago. I feel it's close enough to done to finally show it. Hope you guys like what you see.

lol! thanks for the compliment but I really think there are others who have better bucket collections. Since I've joined this forum i've seen some amazing things. I'll look for some names and dates although i think a lot of them have no dates and few have names from what i remember but i'll check it out. :D

Thanks Guys!!!!!!! I guess you can say that I'm going through my mid life crisis or second childhood. But instead of buying a hot rod or hunting down a younger girl (in which I have THE PERFECT WIFE) I just went with the things I either had or always wanted as a kid. I always loved FM and the Capitan Company ads in the back so I've been buying up things I saw in the ads.

I have done some more work in my room-most importantly I got a worktable! The wife says after Christmas I can get the shelves I need too. I switched out some of the figures and posters I had out, added several new Halloweenies I picked up in the after season half off bin and got some of my kits out.
Here is the door to the room, now officially known as my Morgue
(http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f24/RedKing71/010.jpg)
My new worktable-it's our old dinner table and gives me lots of room for building kits or doing artwork. Also got some kits and books set up on the desk and my sword and cane mounted on the wall.

My small, but cherished Ray Harryhausen collection. The Cyclops, Dragon, Talos & Ymir. The book was signed by Mr. Harryhausen. The poster was a gift from our currently "missing in action" pal, Sean - hope you can get back on here, soon, my friend. Hope you UMA'ers enjoy.
My bookcase (yes, I can actually read) and HUGE stereo system.

It's actually a nasty tell-all along the lines of "Mommy Dearest" as told by a certain disgruntled monkey sidekick. That'll teach him to stiff me on those Golden Gorilla wrasslin' outfits I made for him. You have any idea how much I invested in all that Spandex?

LOVE Harryhausen, nice collection. I didn't realize Ymir was that big! Also that's a neat poster.
The box YMIR came in said it was 12" tall, but it's more like 9 or 10, not including it's tail. I have several figures that claim to be a larger size than what they actually are. Dunno why.

Just did a major dusting in our living room and thought i'd take a pic while everything is nice and clean. Just so happens my favorite episode of King of Queens was on at the same time. Very appropriate in that this is the one where Doug tries to reclaim one of his favorite childhood toys [ a Mentalo fortune telling toy] for Christmas.

Beautiful & bright room-Gasport! Your collection looks so cool and fancy :) I have black shelves in my monster room....so it's dust city! I really wish I had lighter colored shelves like yours. But I can't help but wonder why my monster collection is dustier than any other items in my whole house?? Weird!

Thanks Charp, but like Mike said, after a couple of days the dust and cobwebs will begin to set in AGAIN! I don't dust often enough [it took me like 4 HOURS to do what you see here] but i do enjoy doing the big pieces like Great Garloo and King Zor. Takes me right back to my childhood when i first tore them out of their boxes examined them from head to toe!

Me and the wife are slowly redoing our monster room one piece at a time! We had a counter top and some chair behind our couch for people to sit at during movie nights, but no one ever sat there so we decided to get rid of it and replace it with some new lighted display cabinets. We picked up the display cases at Hobby Lobby and then I wired up some strips of LED lights and a 12 volt rechargeable battery to power them and then did custom artwork for the 2 sides. It allowed us to take a lot of pieces we had in storage out and made room for a lot of new pieces we have picked up and/or made recently. I was finally able to make a space for my King Zor and cleared a space for our new Pumpkinhead to live (he guards the mini-fridge!) We are going to replace some of the shelving units with bigger ones that can hold more stuff and we are going to make some custom furniture to replace our current couch and give us more seating (I also starting drawing up designs for a Creature inspired coffee table!)

Unfortunately no. It was a little beat up when i got it, it took some clean up work and a few minor repairs, but I got it looking pretty nice. I am missing the gun and the box. Theres a nice looking gun on ebay right now, but they are asking $150 for it, and I can't bring myself to pay more for the gun than I did for King Zor himself! I will track one down one day though.

So I Got My Jakks Dracula and Wolf Man today and both are pretty decent.
(http://i836.photobucket.com/albums/zz286/Lantern2814_20850/IMG_0729_zpsb6622a25.jpg)
DRACULA[/B]
(http://i836.photobucket.com/albums/zz286/Lantern2814_20850/IMG_0731_zps86e0a6f9.jpg)
Dracula is not an "Un-Dead-On" Likenesss of Lugosi but it is a much closer resemblance than that of Diamond's current offerings.
My Only complaint regarding the Dracula package is the Loose dirt for the Resting Box Dracula lies in. i'm sure they were trying to keep things authentic by having a "box of his native soil in which he must rest by day" but honestly, I think we could've done with a simple faux dirt "bed" showing the impression made by his body rather than a bag of Loose dirt that might get knocked off the shelf and scattered all over the floor.
THE WOLF MAN[/B]
(http://i836.photobucket.com/albums/zz286/Lantern2814_20850/IMG_0732_zps843833df.jpg)
Now The Wolf Man I have no such complaints about. the Likeness is fairly dead on for the Wolf form He comes with a photo-background same as Dracula but It get's in the way of the Full Moon/half Moon Background that attaches to the base (As it is. It's a great Background for the Sideshow Wolf Man)

I think the Jakks stuff is unfairly maligned. To me, they seemed like real playsets for kids featuring the monsters. If I were a kid when these came out I would have been over the moon.
The figures are a nice size and sturdy. I love Sideshow, and think their figures are the gold standard for likeness, but they don't hold up to play very well.
Also, the Jakks items were clearly made by true monster kids.

But which monster kids! I've tried and tried to find any info on who the line director was, the name of any sculptor or individual working on it, and have continually come up with nothing. Kniw anyone who was there at the time?
I agree with you that they are fun toys, made for play. It's a shame they weren't able to market the line better.

Hmmmmm? That's a great idea. I guarantee if I opened my "loose dirt" bag, that's exactly what would happen! I might try to rig up an "impression" deal like you mentioned.
Either way, great display!!

We got the Jakks figures for my son a few years back, and he still plays with them to this day. Well, now he has them set up on his book shelf with his Revell/Aurora reissue kits, but he got a LOT of play out of them, particularly the Wolf Man. The swappable Larry Talbot parts were ingenious.

I only have the Jakks Wolfman and I love it! I wish i had gotten Frankenstein and Dracula too, but I missed them. I did however buy one of the individually packaged Wolf Man figures so i could use it for the Larry Talbot parts. Well I pretty much have my Monster room set up to my liking. I won't be able to get shelves for awhile, so I set up figures on the floor all around the walls of the room, on windowsills, anywheres! it looks like a Monster Party with lots of mingling (and mangling) guests! I have a slew of pics so I'll be posting them several at a time:here's the first installment.

WOWWWWWW! Mike - I love looking at everyone's collections, but I must say, yours might just be my favorite. I mean, man - Majin, Santo, every dang Kaiju there is and I even thought I saw Reptilicus (or something very much like him). Monstrously awesome and eclectic stuff, dude. And MOVIES!!!! You should be proud of your ultimate Monster Room, bro! I'd get dizzy just being in there!

RedKing, you've got to be the biggest collector of Kaiju I've ever seen. Mind blowing....even saw a Yog figure. The Universal and Kaiju is great, but topping it off with Three Stooges merchandice as well......the King part of your title fits. Your collection even brought to mind a beloved show from my past, The Space Giants ( love that Goldar figure).

Definitely a wonderful collection. I always liked the presentation of putting the toys in front of books or movies. They served almost as a back drop for the figures. Unfortunately due to limited shelf space here, I had to abandon that set up because there's barely enough space for the stuff itself.

Thanks guys! I still have alot of stuff packed up but I managed to put out most of my favorite pieces. The Reptilicus looking monster is a rubber Asian Dragon jiggler I've had since the late 70s/early 80s and i did indeed always use him for Reptilicus or Manda as a kid. I actually had 2 of them-the other one was the same, or very similar, but was molded in harder stiff rubber or vinyl and was painted differently. If I remember correctly, that one's tail broke off and i threw it away.

Not my monster room. It's a cool room I found online. When this guy has guests, they are always welcome to sleep in his monster room.
He may even be a member here! These photos were saved on a day when my home PC temporarily died, and I could not relocate exactly where I found this guy.

I agree! Redking's figure collection in general is right off the scale. It's just too cool!

Yes, yes, you're right! The back drop of books and videos is the detail that really offsets Redking's presentation! I can't wait to see the result when he gets his shelves.

and The Wild gave the Blackhawks one of their shootout losses. 6-3-1 in their last ten. While no where near the numbers Chicago has, it still might be an interesting game tomorrow night. Too bad I'll miss it I have a gig. Oh well, they always replay the games late at night right bout when I'll be getting home yay! Go Wild!

That's not my collection it's Larry's collection. I believe his last name is Kidd. On the HMA he goes by the name GK Asylum.

HMA? Tell Larry that his collection doesn't count for diddly squat until he posts it right here.

Hepcat, if you are talking about the big Frankenstein poster, that isn't Bama... it is by Kurt Degen. (He also did a great Metropolis poster). It is contemporary but had a great old vibe.
I have a little bit of stuff at work too...

I just looked at the bottom of the poster and it said "Original Artwork by Kurt Degen"....

That blacklight shelf is the bee's knees!!
I wouldn't say he was ripping Bama off on that poster?! It's just the same image of the monster was used for inspiration...Bama's work has way more atmosphere to it....Degen's poster is pretty sweet though!

The funny thing is that I have WAY more room in this place than my old one and I still have stuff in boxes in my closet LOL. No where near as much but I have the Sideshow Silver screen 8", The Munsters Color & B&W sets and all the universal monster little big heads (S1, 2, Wrestlers & Skateboarders). I also have all the NECA Pirates of the Caribbean figs

The comments on in the link. Though my own profanity laced tirade against Scatter was just deleted, I see.
Due to the copious misspellings, no doubt.

mars- aside from your comfy coffin, I was curious about your Metaluna Mutant. Not just about his incredibly great taste in clothing, but if it is a mask, a full head bust or a life size character? You really have some great collectibles! And all your framed posters look fantastic!

Charpie, the Metaluna head you see is a mask produced by: Illusive Concepts. I purchased the mask about.......eleven years ago. Although the mask looks good in the photo, Mr. Metaluna Man is starting to rot. Thank you for your kind words about my collection. Seems like I have been collection for over twenty five-plus years.

25 years? Wow! You are a born archivist! :) I have had a few monster items for about 15 years, but I have nothing from my childhood days. We moved a lot, and everything was considered disposable- uggh! That's why I think I held on to a lot of my kids' favorite toys. The Metaluna mask is an awesome collectible! I have seen a couple of them in some of the UMA collections. It's a real beauty! I'm sorry to hear about the condition of it. I guess if you don't put masks in a temperature controlled windowless vault, they start to deteriorate. I've heard a lot of people talk about the same problem. But at least when you look at it every day, you fully enjoy it! :) I have a pretty small collection, with no high value collectibles- I see it every day and all my monster stuff makes me happy!
I can't even begin to tell you how jealous I am of your coffin! Every Halloween I ask my husband to build us coffins like Hank Hill did for himself & Peggy on King of the Hill. So far...I got no coffin! Yours is gorgeous! And looks plush & cozy.

Yes. I bought Grandpa in 1990 at Universal Studios. He was clearanced in a gift store and the
only Munster left. I couldn't find the others.

If you need a set, I'll probably be selling mine in the near future. They are pristine with the original tags and cello bags with store price tags from !989/90.

That's off the top of my head. If you (or any interested party) would like any of these, PM me. I'm very reasonable with my prices.

Display them or sell them. I guarantee mine are the most pristine you will find. The circular boxes for the Exclusive Premier were the best after a four store search (Toys'R'Us exclusive). Perfect boxes, even the stickers were expertly removed the day I got 'em.

Amen to that. Also, anyone notice the claw marks on the door? I don't know what that's from. Freddy? Werewolf? House settling? :P

The claw marks look like they belong to our very own Scatter. He has a habit of breaking into fellow member's homes to check out their stuff. He's harmless (just keep the fridge locked).

Love the dioramas! Gives you more a sense of the place, than does a lot of close-ups (though those let you see the stuff better).
Where did you get that motion picture themed table and lamp?

The lamp came from Cracker Barrell I *think*. Table may be from there too. I will have to ask my mom as they were Christmas gifts from her.

Fun fact, I have more posters than I have wall space :P I moved my GoodFellas poster to the closet door:

So I could make room for:

I mean, c'mon. It's Casablanca. Have to fit it in somewhere!

Quote from: Count_Zirock on June 09, 2013, 08:50:52 PMThis pic has some stuff that's kinda hidden. The Monster Scenes Vampirella kit is next to the upside-down Victim kit. On top of the two kits is the box for Factory Ent.'s Ring of Dracula: Elite Edition. One of the books is "Kong Reborn," a sequel to the public domain 1933 "King Kong" novelization. On top of Jack Ketchum's "Off Season" are three of the Collector's Edition Dracula rings (Factory had a sale last Halloween).

I am pretty amateur in comparison to most of the pictures on this thread, but this is my little cubby of "must have" year round Halloween items, I just started collecting this year, after 6 years of living with a collector, it's finally rubbed off.
My collection is slowly (but surely) growing... this picture was about 3 months ago, and it no longer fits in my cubby - looking for a new home for it in our one bedroom.
This thread makes me lust for more room in our place... that's for sure.

Many of us are already in the dust, when it comes to a lot of the 1960s (and some of the '70s) stuff. If you like cute, get some of the Creature stuffed toys. :)

Cute is kind of my schtick!
I will have to see what they have to offer in the "cute" category.
First, I have to get over the amazingly adorable Wolfman I picked up the other day - Stuffed Funko guys are my new love!

I found Funko Wolfie in a clearance bin at a local museum (EMP) that had a horror exhibit! I got him for $4! I loved the under bite! They didn't have anything else, so I've been keeping my eyes out for bargains on the rest of them.
You are all making me want to go watch Creature this week... have to find a copy - Is it on Netflix?

I take it your bathroom is designed to have house guests opt to stay in a motel instead.

When my honey and I were looking for a new place, 2 bathrooms were a must so I could have a Creature bathroom.

I don't have a lot of display space or that large a collection, but here are my monster shelves.

Thanks Ghost but I've already started taking apart my Snake Mountain for other projects, nice of you to offer though. Mike Scott, those are Lemax Spooky Town pieces. It took me until this year to finally find a reasonably priced Remco Mini Mummy to complete the display. Although a Monsterizer would be nice, none of my monsters are glow in dark, so I can live without it.

I need to read my own posts twice, just so I don't make double entendres and make everyone uncomfortable! :) Yay! My kids would have taken it to the darker place- they lie in wait for me to say something they can turn vulgar (they are in their 30s) or respond with "that's what she said".... Thankfully, they have spouses of their own that they can mock HA!

Well gang, I have been AWOL for a couple weeks because we have been settl;ing into our new home, getting the Halloween decorations up (pics of those to come) and setting up my new Monster Room! I am not finished yet-i have 3 shelves to mount on the wall but I need masonry screws or something to drill into the basement cement walls. I have most of the basement as my Monster Room which is great-I have a sofa/sleeper already and am going to put a TV down there along with my work table-so much room! The only downside is I can't hang posters and photos on the cement walls, but can't have it all I guess!

Your new Monster room is HUGE! And I really like the cement walls- which I would have never thought! The gray cement really sets off the colors of your collection! It has a cave-like secret hide out feel! The built in shelves are something I envy! I have always bought black shelves for my stuff....and of course they are eternally dusty. I wish I could replace them with white or natural wood colored shelves. Your poster problem could be remedied by cheap poster frames. I know Walmart has pretty inexpensive plastic frames in both regular poster sizes. I buy them for my grandson's posters all the time. And my husband bought some nails that you can hammer into cement because we used them to hammer a threshold on a cement floor. Either way, your room looks fantastic with or without posters :) Congratulations on your new Monster Lair~~~~~ Fancy!

The humidity is not bad-the washer and dryer are also down therebut the dryer has a vent so its not very bad. I was concerned about that at first, but it is fine. It stays nice and cool, like a good dungeon and will probably be cold in the winter, but I have a nice electric heater for that.

Thanks Scatter and Mord! I did paint the re-issue Auroras and have a stack of models to finish. Creature, Phantom, and Mummy Aurora re-issues, Dracula, Bride and Frankenstein, and the Mummy by Moebius, and Ghost of Castlemare by Monarch. One day I will get around to it. I also painted that model skull.

hi everyone, this is my first post here so i thought id show off my collection a bit!
im a junior in college now studying sculpture, but im working as a special fx artist at local haunts and doing a few commercials and tv shows for cartoon network and adult swim. my dorm room is kinda small so not all of my stuff is here, but it is packed full of stuff! most of the props and some masks were made by myself and all others have been collected since i was about 5! ive always loved the creature and godzilla the most so they take up a big portion of my collection.
i know its not as big as some of the amazing collections here but let me know what you all think!
thanks!

im a junior in college now studying sculpture, but im working as a special fx artist at local haunts and doing a few commercials and tv shows for cartoon network and adult swim. my dorm room is kinda small so not all of my stuff is here, but it is packed full of stuff! most of the props and some masks were made by myself and all others have been collected since i was about 5! ive always loved the creature and godzilla the most so they take up a big portion of my collection.
i know its not as big as some of the amazing collections here but let me know what you all think!
thanks!

Here are some new pictures I've taken of the display cabinets in my monster room. First my main model kit cabinet:
(http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g434/Balticprince/Halloween%202013%20%20Deuce%20Styx%20Cowboy%20Cake/DSCN3173_zpsea8058c8.jpg)

Then my board game, lunch box and overflow model kit cabinet:
(http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g434/Balticprince/Halloween%202013%20%20Deuce%20Styx%20Cowboy%20Cake/DSCN3166_zpscf9768ae.jpg)

Finally, the overflow cabinet in Ace's bedroom where I keep and display whatever cool stuff for which there isn't sufficient room in my comic and toy room:
(http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g434/Balticprince/Halloween%202013%20%20Deuce%20Styx%20Cowboy%20Cake/DSCN3161_zpsc7049edc.jpg)

I like to think that it's still the best third toy cabinet on the block.

I have a Forgotten Prisoner that my buddy Tony built in 1967. One of these days I may try to paint it after practicing on some car models first.
I also have two slot cars I built as a kid. Here are some close-up shots of the two. The bigger car on the left is a 1/24 scale Revell Lotus 23 while the smaller one is a 1/32 scale Monogram Ferrari 330 P/LM.

And no, I do not ever plan to assemble the kits you see collected in my cabinet. They're all originals and there's no need to "destroy" them as collectors' items. I can always build repros if I'm so inclined.
:)
I also have two slot cars I built as a kid. Here are some close-up shots of the two. The bigger car on the left is a 1/24 scale Revell Lotus 23 while the smaller one is a 1/32 scale Monogram Ferrari 330 P/LM.

I'm just as happy with unsealed kits so long as they're complete and unassembled. I like looking at the pieces and instructions inside the box! But if a model kit is sealed when I acquire it, I just leave it that way.

Here are some new pictures I've taken of my display cabinets in my monster room. First my main model cabinet:
...Then my board game, lunch box and overflow model kit cabinet:...
...Finally, the overflow cabinet in Ace's bedroom where I keep and display whatever cool stuff for which there isn't sufficient room in my monster room:...
...I like to think that it's still the best third toy cabinet on the block...
That doesn't look like a collector's case - It looks like a very well stocked hobby shop.

Thanks for the feedback guys, but I have to be honest. I could never afford to buy each of these figures individually in a year and a half. I started out when I walked into a garage sell where a woman sold me all the sideshow universal monsters 8 inch line that you can see in the pictures for 50 bucks.... Back then I din't know how expensive it was to get each one of those, and I strongly believe the lady din't know what she had either. I got all the Mezco Helboy figures from a store in Peru (of all places) that was going bankrupt a couple months ago for about 60 bucks. I know it sounds crazy, but I did really get that lucky twice in the last two years.
Collecting can be scary because I don't want to horde stuff. So I try to keep a standard of quality. I dislike the Universal Diamond Select line so much I gave those away to charity. I don't want to collect any "retro" stuff either, just because that means SO MUCH more stuff that I need to purchase and I don't have the money for.
I am currently only pursuing to add the upcoming series 3 of Neca's fantastic Pacific Rim line. I got my eyes open for any potentially awesome Godzilla 2014 figures (hopefully from Neca). Oh, and regardless of how small my collection is there's a noticeable gap in it that bothers me every day. That's Sideshow's 8inch Bela Lugosi Dracula... It drives me a bit crazy not having him, but the cheapest I've ever seen him for was 90 bucks, and that's WAY TOO MUCH money for just one figure. I saw a few other collections here that had him, so maybe he is worth going a bit hungry for :P.

That's either an old can or a Vintage/retro repro can. (I don't drink it, but I can tell good design when I see it -- and that's good product design. [Modern designers cannot match the simple elegance of the past.] So it definitely has a place in that room.)

But a "lite/light" beer? That's like praising bootleg copies of the Mona Lisa. Sorry, none of those things are the real deal.

I have pretty much finished setting up my Monster Mancave, or the Manstercave, this past week. I rearranged some of the shelves, put out the rest of the figures, mostly Ultraman stuff. I would say 90% of my toys and kits are out. i also cleared some shelf space for future sculpts, kits I have in the pile ready to go (James Bond, Batman, the 3 Stooges) and for my dinosaur kits when i get them repaired and repainted. Best of all I have a TV and DVD player set up so I can watch Monster flicks while I work, or just relax-I also have a couch! If I can get it working I have an old Wii which I should be able to acess Netflix from too, but so far it doesn't seem to work. I get sound but no picture, so I need to fool around with it some more. If any of my UMA brethren are ever in the upstate NY Saratoga region, stop in!!

Wow! Your monster room just keeps growing more and more hideous by the week. Anybody but a dedicated monster kid from way back could well lose his mind amidst the sheer plethora of sordidness you've assembled. Very impressive indeed!

This is probably the most I have ever been able to put on display,it's definitely the best Manstercave I have had yet. It is really a great sanctuary to unwind after a stressful day.

It makes me feel not so alone in the extreme collecting department. You have more stuff than I do. I absolutely love this hobby and have been doing it for almost 25 years. Sometimes I look and think about all the money I put into it. However, it is one of my great joys in life so to me, it is worth it. I see collections like yours and I see that it is worth it to others as well. Also, you forgot something. You forgot to designate which items are for sale. ;D

Quote from: the_horror_man on February 20, 2014, 11:10:22 AMGlad to share my collection with everyone and to let others know they are indeed not the only ones out there with huge collections of monsters. Some of the things in my collection I have had since childhood(I'm 42) including the Remco Minis, Mattel/Popy Godzilla, Shogun Godzilla etc. I started seriously collecting when I was in high school, probably around 1986 or so when I discovered mail order places that sold Japanese toys and models.By 1988 I was starting to get into modeling seriously (building kits not posing for photos! LOL) and bought my first vinyl kits at Rare Plane Detectives in NJ=Horizon Dracula, the big Tsukudas and an Ultraman vs Neronga set. I don't have as much money to devote to the collection as I did back in the mid 2000s but I am just happy and consider myself lucky to have what I have. I really love collecting monsters and heroes of all kinds and try to get at least a sample from all the different genres I enjoy. As for what's for sale...wellllll there really isn't anything I would want to part with!

Hmmm-great idea Jimm! Scatter, i tried to convince the wife to let me have the 72 inch screen TV downstairs but she said no way, so I have to settle for the small one. ??? On a serious note, Mark once told me that my collection was his favorite of all the ones he had seen here because I had so many different genres covered and that really meant alot to me when he said it, and it means even more now. I often think of him when I am downstairs and like to think that just maybe he is looking in from the Great Beyond.

Great display, SB69! Everything is arranged perfectly. Love the little lights all over the place. You might want to invest in those Neca "Headlights" for your display. Those sets of ten beautifully sculpted/painted monster heads. They did Leatherface & Jason, that I know of (maybe Freddy too). Anyway, they would complement your wonderful collection.

RedKing - you have some crazy sick space down there! I'm 39 and started collecting about the same time as you, but never had the space to store all the things I wanted, so had to be picky on my purchases. My new space to display is small, so I have to rotate stuff every so often.

I do not keep my Halloween up all year, as I need something to look forward to, but this is beautiful. I don't think I would have anywhere to display my blow molds inside! My Monsters, however, are year-round -- no village, Motion-ettes, or anything like that, though.

I snagged that off ebay a couple years ago for 40 bucks. Don't know who the maker was.
I would like to see some close up pics of this figure. It looks like an incredible figure. ;D

That figure is a steal for $40.
My friend picked up this little odd mistake the other day.

Not only did they put him on the card upside down, they put the entire card upside down in the plastic case and sealed it that way. He loves figure mistakes like this so was thrilled.

Mike that was produced a few years ago and it came with a T-shirt inside, at one point I had them all but now I only have the Creature.
Here is another Corner, it's where my screen used SLeestak lives.

Wanted to ad a picture of my XFX Clock. This was custom made by Steve Johnson for use in Japan for a live stage show. Later Steve displayed the clock in his FX studio for over twenty years. It now hangs proudly in my studio and is over 6' tall. So much going on in the design and every inch is sculpted.

Im digging this post! I LOVE checking out other peoples collections. Good to see so much cool stuff being preserved. Im in the process of rearranging my collection so I will post some pics of that later. Here are a few pics of the mad scientist lab Im building in my basement. I scour the auctions and yard sales for pieces to incorporate. A ton of scratch built stuff. I love making this "work". Lots of lights, buzzes, and cracks!! Hope the link works...never tried this before.

Take them out of their boxes. They all look much better displayed together. I don't have the Wolfman PF yet but I'm actively searching for one.

I will after I move my Creature poster to the wall I want to put all my Creature toys next to. (wow...that was terrible sentence structure) Anyways.. I only have about 6-8 Creature toys (no really valuable or vintage stuff), and they're presently on a little shelf in a powder room that connects to my monster room. I've pretty much left everything in the same spot for 2-3 years. I posted a pic a couple years back, but the little shelves have become more crowded and dusty. That's what so great about moving your stuff around- you are forced to bring out the Swiffer Duster! Ha!

Nice Creature display, Mike! I like seeing variations of the same character all together. What is that just to the right of the light switch on the wall, it looks like a little copy of the mat? Maybe a fan-made thing?
And above that, is that either a painted Aurora coppersmith plaque or a painted resin copy of the plaque? And above that-what looks like a partial white Marx Creature?

It's a night-light. Licensed. It's the only other thing I've seen with the same art as the door mat (both made by Salamander 1996). There was also a Frank, Drac and Wolf, same as the mats.
You got it. A resin plaque made from the Coppersmith mold/matrix. (Painted with Aurora box colors.)
The little white Creature is from the "Monster Mash" pinball machine.

I never saw a close up of the little white figure from the pinball machine before-cool, thanks.
I don't remember of seeing the night-light before either.
I actually have one of the resin plaques, but it's unpainted.

All repros, I'm afraid. 3 of those one sheets are $15K posters (originals) and that WOTW half sheet goes for $30K!

Repros look just as nice. Save your money & buy more collectibles or a car or hookers. Love your collection, now that I get to see it , Mike. Don't tell me you painted those Auroras yourself. They look amazing.

Myself I always lean to originals, but I stay away from the really high demand collectibles such as movie posters on which prices are stratospheric. Movie posters are an item highly prized by the Hollywood groupie crowd which drives up the price of the posters for discriminating niche collectors such as ourselves. I'm willing to pay for short supply, but I hate paying for high (everyone else's) demand.
And that's why I'd rather buy one hundred baseball or hockey cards of "common" players instead of the one card of the star player. And no, it's not the case that I prefer quantity over "quality". In both cases it's a little piece of cardboard with a picture on it. A different picture about which other fans have gotten silly doesn't create any more "quality".

I love the art and enjoy seeing it on the wall (as opposed to a book, which I also have), so a repro will do it for me, since I can't afford the originals. There are many affordable originals, but these are my favorite posters.

Quote from: Mike Scott on April 06, 2014, 11:24:01 AMImpressive collection and display, Mike. If I focused on one monster it would most certainly be the Creature, as well. I agree with you on the posters. Repros look great on the wall and let you put the money where you want. As you pointed out, most of us couldn't afford some of those originals anyway. I have a few original lobby cards and posters but it's stuff like Pam Grier from Twilight People and the poster for Werewolf Shadow. My posters for CFTBL and Forbidden Planet are repros. Now if I were rich....hmmmm... ;D

just about 2 inches tall. the burger king toy where you submerse creech in water and then squeeze his belly and he spits out of his mouth?
could be that one... don't remember stickers coming with any of those toys.
And my 2nd favorite Aurora kit in the bkgrd!
PHantom? I remember the exact moment when I picked out that kit at the corner store, and my older brother reached up and handed it down to me. ooooo that scary guy behind the bars with his bloody face and The Phantom with his eerie green face. I was too young to paint them back then but now I can really paint them. I think we kept the boxes up on the headboard of our beds. Good Times.

Oh yeah! I like the two tone green paint job on the Creature. Even better is the bright orange lizard! You did a super monster kid job!

Definitely a different head sculpt in REVENGE. You don't see too many REVENGE toys. The most famous one is the Marx toy. Even has his chains.
Oh yeah, the Marx mold, I forgot about that one. I also noticed that one of your globes, where the sculpt is half out of the crystal ball, he kinda looks like the Revenge face.
Now I gotta go and find me a Marx Creature, preferably one that is painted.

Nice! I collect blow molds, but don't have this one. I really wish they would have produced a wolfman to go with this and the vampire that's also available.

Lighted Halloween blow mold decoration from the late 1990s. They also produced a Vampire. They are still making these styles, though the vampire's paint app is different today:

Well, of course it's their Halloween page! We wouldn't want to go off-topic here. ;)
Regardless, they are simply a distributor. Any retailer can purchase from them. One that consistently has a large selection is:

My Monster Room is also undergoing renovation in the next few weeks-too much other stuff going on lately to get to it, but once September rolls around i should have more time. I moved my work table upstairs to have better lighting than what I have in the basement, plus my oldest son wants to set up his own "apartment" down there, so I am downsizing my area.

I just looked at my list of the ones that I still need: ANGEL UNCHAINED-THE ATTIC-THE BAT PEOPLE-THE BOY AND THE PIRATES-CAPT. PIRATE-CRAWLSPACE-CRYSTALSTONE-CYCLE SAVAGES-DR. GOLDFINGER & THE BIKINI MACHINE-FIREBALL 500-FOOD OF THE GODS-FORTUNE OF CAPTAIN BLOOD-KILLER KLOWNS FROM OUTER SPACE-MUSCLE BEACH PARTY-PSYCH OUT-SKI PARTY-THUNDER ALLEY-THE TRIP-MORONS FROM OUTER SPACE-ALIEN FROM L.A.
That's more than I thought. I'm a bit of a completist, but like you say, a lot of the films are not worth it. Some I'd only pay $1 for.
What ones are you missing?

I have most of the beach movies actually. They had some great cameos.
Even the stuff that can be found cheaply online becomes too much when shipping gets added in. If I find them used locally, that'll be fine. If not...eh.

They are in collections. Horror, sci-fi, comedy, etc. and by release date within the collection. The franchise movies are alpha by series title (Batman, X-Men, etc.) There's variations, but I know where everything is. :)

Hey Mike....the mini mask was done by Jack Nisi in a tiny run years ago. Scarce as hens teeth. The whole set of masks is GI Joe size. That is indeed the squishy on card.
Left to right for the circled items..
1. Hasbro Toy Fair painted prototype 12" figure. was displayed at Toy Fair in '99
2. Hasbro unpainted protoype 12" figure from '99
3. Head off that hand puppet...my son played with it so I took the head when he lost interest
4. Sideshow creature painted prototype
5. head from SS figure

Couldn't make out those Hasbro and Sideshow figs.
Didn't recognize the puppet head without his "body". :laugh:

All I could see in the other pic was the head. It's a very nice Glenn Strange sculpt!
Where do you get all the prototypes? Do they just turn up on the collector's market?

The Frankenstein bobble head and the unfinished Hasbro Wolfman prototype are 2 seriously awesome pieces. Especially the Frankenstein.

I also have one of these. Very heavy.
My picture file lists it as being made by someone named Jesse Washington. Don't have a date on it, but sometime in 1990's.

I can't tell the size by the picture, but could the head be a resin casting of the Marx robot head?

Here is a sneek peek at my new addition to my Universal room. The old section was taken down and cleaned and I am now in the process of repairing some broken models and statues. It needed cleaning badly and I couldn't get in there to give it a proper cleaning. The new section is complete. Some of the pictures came out a little dark but you can still see. In one shot you can see through the opening to the old section. The room is 16x40 and I will still need more space eventually. Not greedy just a hopeless collector. f I posted to many pics, sorry, I get carried away sometimes.

Thank you all. I am glad you liked it. The repairs and cleaning will take awhile longer to complete in the other section. That section is the original room and a lot bigger. When that side is finished I will post pictures of that and then I will update my pictures on my site of my collection. I consider myself very fortunate to have a collection this big. I was also lucky to hold onto a few older items which was hard because I was a military brat and we moved every 3 years. Now I have room to move around I will be able to keep my collection tidy as it should be. The collection is part of what makes me Universal Steve.

Thank you again for all the comments. You got me bustin' with pride and that is not even half of the collection. Like I said before the other side is still under repair but I just couldn't wait to show you some more. I saw some ceiling tile debris on the floor in a couple of pictures. Sorry about that. Again, this still is not everything. This side is for mostly my models but I do have a few other things in there. I also haven't set up my Universal Monster chess board in there yet. I will post more when done but here is a few more things in the old section. The Creature poster and the Frankenstein and Dracula posters originally came from Famous Monsters back in the 70's. There is some old stuff in there. I hope you like these pictures and I hope I am not overloading too many pictures. Pictures may not be in exact order of shelves.

These are so incredible. They may be the very best looking Universal monster toys ever. I assume that Dracula is too expensive right now, but why no Phantom? That one has the best Chaney Phantom likeness ever captured on a mass produced toy.

Hey Steve, awesome collection. Universal monsters can't be beat. I noticed you have what I think is a full set of the porcelain plates. I have the one with the Monsters Speaks artwork on it. First time I've seen these in anyone's collection. My understanding is that these were very limited due to production problems. I wonder what the value is on these since I never see them for sale on eBay. Again, love your collection, it rocks!

I just saw two Phantoms at a toy show ($5 each). If I go back there, I'll pick them up and sell you one for $5 plus shipping (if you want).
Whoops!! Guess I missed out. Thanks for the offer!!

thm, your collection is crazy-good! It's everything I like. I have about a third of the exact same stuff you have, but the other two thirds have me salivating. I also prefer the more realistic-looking modern toys to vintage stuff. Seriously, some of these pieces I'm seeing for the first time (and I've been collecting for decades)! One item I'm very curious about is the Karloff Frankenstein head (on the top shelf behind the Mummy mask). It seems too small too be a mask. It's one of the nicest Karloff Frankensteins I've seen.

Thanks Mord. We are like Monster brothers.;D The Frankenstein mask you are referring to is very unique. It is not full size, so it is not wearable. The sculpt is by UMA member monster_mash. His name is Jason. Although the sculpt is from him, the mask was painted and haired by another artist. The sculpt is from The Bride of Frankenstein, but it was finished with sort of an original Frankenstein look. Here is a close up.

Wow, that is a beauty! I noticed you have all the available Dawn of the Dead figures. Did you know that Neca did a zombie Roger figure? I saw it in a recent monster mag that had a feature on unproduced horror figures. It's incredibly detailed and actor accurate. He's in a laying position and comes with a blanket to cover him. I would love to find a prototype. I guess Neca figured that no one would want a figure of a dormant zombie (I know that you and I would pick it up in a heartbeat).

If it is the same Roger figure I am thinking of, yes, I did know. I remember a while back seeing it and wondering why they never put it in production. I don't understand why they would do the Hare Krishna zombie, but not do a Roger. He is one of the main characters in the movie. Also, the scene with him having turned into a zombie rising from the bed is one of the greatest scenes in the movie. Actually, one of the most iconic images in horror history.

I agree, Roger would have been a better choice (though I do love the Hare Krishna zombie, too). They produced those Dawn of the Dead figures from 2006 - 2007. I always thought they would do a 4th figure (either Roger or the Savini biker) and release all four as a fortieth anniversary boxed set in 2008. They were doing a lot of sets back then (Sin City girls, Reservoir Dogs, Devil's Rejects, etc.). What a shame.

Here is a photo of Cliff Barackman of Finding Bigfoot, myself and Bob Gimlin of Patterson/Gimlin Film fame, taken at the Yakima Valley Museum back in October (and October is damn fine month to be in Washington State. The hotel I stayed at had a great view of the Yakima River behind all the rooms. Beautiful weather that whole weekend too.): (https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10806238_10152766221901558_1648503369886212578_n.jpg?oh=d2f583ac40fc9fde9708646e38aeade2&oe=5525347C&__gda__=1429324650_3b3dc3f322872e917cab1484b9e77101)

More of my Creature stuff that didn't get photographed the last time. Some because they're new.

Nice Creature collection! I have never seen that bag before. Looks like you have almost all things Creech. I didn't see a Toy Island Creature in that group.

Thanks!
I just got that bag. Been wanting it for a long time. It has Wolf Man on the back and there a Frank Drac bag, too.
I mostly collect Creature stuff and a some other '50s sci-fi things, like spaceships and monster/alien figures. See more of my things starting here

Wow, impressive collections gang!
HBSquatch - LOVE the stuff and your museum photos! Been a fan of the hairy hominid sine my childhood in 70's! Thanks for posting your pictures. The museum exibit looks like it was a blast.
Mike - Fantastic Creature collectibles - nice to see what other Fin-addicts have in their collections! Thank you for posting your pics!

On two different occasions....I have been forced to part with my collection. :o :o In its entirety. :'( Both times I was devastated. The first time, it was smaller, and my (now) wife, who I have been married to for 22 years....got every single piece of it back, and has indulged me in this arena of my life. The second time I sold it all off to a relative due to financial hardship and I had bills to pay. They then gave nearly all of it back due to losing interest a couple years later. As my collection stands now, its missing some things I wish I still had....but I believe it to be the best its ever been. Confined primarily to a spacious walk in closet. Most of the time safe from my dog and cats. But...there has been one incident where a werewolf became an amputee,lol. I can barely afford to buy anything now. But I do wish to try and hold onto what I still have.

Your collection is truly amazing. Probably one of the best I have seen. I see you have a section devoted to Psycho. Speaking of, this is my Mrs Bates Head Sculpture I did years ago. This was part of a full size prop I built for a friends Halloween party. I kept the prop complete for a while. However, I ended up deciding to just display the head and dismantle the rest.

LOVE IT!!!! Psycho is a magnificent film. I have watched it more than any other film I believe. The performance by Perkins is what throws me. I still cant believe hes nuts in it. It always seemed like Mother did it,lol.
My parents forbad me from seeing this film while I was younger. Which is odd since I was only 6 when I saw The Exorcist at a drive in.. One early morning, I watched the film on a pay channel while waiting on the school bus. It scared me more than anything I had seen up to that point....and I was a sophomore in high school.

On two different occasions....I have been forced to part with my collection. :o :o In its entirety. :'( Both times I was devastated. The first time, it was smaller, and my (now) wife, who I have been married to for 22 years....got every single piece of it back, and has indulged me in this arena of my life. The second time I sold it all off to a relative due to financial hardship and I had bills to pay. They then gave nearly all of it back due to losing interest a couple years later.

I've told him to do copies....but he's afraid of Universal getting him,lol. I got the Virginia Gregg from ebay. Everything but her signature is matted out. Its on a card that has a very lovely, flowey expression and some personalization. I think it says something like "To Harold and Jeneanne...thanks for attending, hope you liked the play, and was so glad to have you in attendance. Love always, Virginia Gregg".
Obviously I am not Harold, nor Jeneanne, and didnt go to the play. But I do like her voice work as mother in the original film, and all the sequels.
She's the only one besides Perkins who stayed with the whole series of films.
Psycho stuff is hard to come by for some reason. You'd be surprised some of the obscene offers (all of which were turned down) for the little Franklin Mint diorama I have on display in that arrangement.

Quote from: Anton Phibes on May 05, 2015, 09:45:22 AMThat Virginia Gregg auto is a pretty unique Psycho item. I love when I see something a little out of the mainstream. Her voice IS downright chilling to the bone. I have the Mrs. Bates mask done by Carol Hicks, and I taped the end scene where he speaks in his mother's voice. I put it on a mini audio recorder, and it sits directly behind the mask on a display base. When you play it back it's pretty freaky, as if she's talking. Probably my favorite thing in my entire collection.

Thats the Franklin Mint item I spoke of. It apparently was released and vanished relatively quickly. The persistent urban legend is that it was only sold on the Universal Studios Hollywood tour in a gift shop for one Halloween season. But I dont know if I believe that. ::)I cant see Franklin Mint doing that just for Universal in so limited a run. ???
But there's no doubt its a little on the unique side. Fortunately they were boxed in a plain white non descript box....so you dont have to worry about finding one MIB. Just go find one....if you can. I wish you the best. Mine and one other are the only examples I have seen in my collecting. They probably all wound up in a landfill if they really were novelty souvenirs from the vacation park. :'(

The Kharis is a vinyl kit by the legendary Billiken from 1990 (or so). The giant Karloff Mummy in the sarcophagus was made by Sideshow in 2006. Both are top shelf pieces.

I never could stand the kits when bases werent included. So, until I found suitable bases~ after the internet became a family standard, those trophy bases were all I could muster.
I just recently re-aquired a Billiken Frankenstein that needs some tlc. I have a abse in mind for it thats made of resin. More when/if I get it done. I have ta keep meeting my Distinctive Dummies deadlines first. I couldnt imagine how many villagers would be coming at me with torches in hand if I caused a delay,lol. ;) ;)

Mord, his better half Mordella ;),Dracula and I went to Son of Monsterpalooza and had a great time. But one of the real highlights of the day was seeing Mord's awesome Monster Room's (yes, I said rooms). While the following pics are not all encompassing of his collection what follows are some highlights. So without further adieu WELCOME TO MORD'S WORLD!! hmjfym tynhrt

Ya know Mord---back when I was a wee lad, I used to live in California. We lived in Sacramento and Rockland. How we became Ohioans is all on my dad. We were gypsies growing up. Moved all over the states. You remember watching Bob Wilkins at all? "Keep America strong! Watch Horror movies!"

Similar situation with the Sideshow 1/6 Mummy figure. Doesn't come up for sale often and when it does, the price is very high.

Actually Mord I was going to suggest you display it. Since the box doesn't have a display window it seems such a shame to keep such an amazing piece under wraps. :) This is where the collector phobia line should be drawn. You should never be so worried as to not enjoy a piece in your collection. Pick up one of those glass cases like Dracula has his displayed in. I was surprised to learn that they are so affordable, $79.00 at Ikea! Well worth it and you could put other pieces in there as well. It's the same glass case I recently acquired that Glenn and Chris call home now.

I have to agree on this. Items that come in a box without a window should be taken out an displayed. If the item is not visible at all, even I will usually take the item out. However, I would exclude any vintage items. If something has been in a sealed package for 20 - 30 years plus, whether it is visible or not, I would leave it in the box. ;D

That monster room is f*^#ing awesome Mord!! As others point out, everything looks in great condition and well organized.
I gotta say though, the fact that you and Gory Glenn went out for Mexican food makes even more jealous than the monster room. I lived in Cali for a few yrs when i was a kid and I miss the Mexican food. I miss In and Out too for that matter. But something about the Mexican food in SoCal and Arizona, you just can't find it anywhere else. I still have family out West so I try to visit every few years. First thing I do is hit a taco stand. I'm serious. Same thing when I'm in Phoenix.

Quote from: 1/6thtoyz on October 04, 2015, 07:18:10 PMThank you so much for the kind words. I've been collecting for decades, but had to start over since my divorce (I got rid of a lot of the vintage stuff to finance my hedonistic single lifestyle). What you see here is about 20 years worth (give or take). There's a lot of stuff that didn't show (maybe there'll be a 2nd set of pix soon). I would love to take credit for the models, but I can't. The pieces on my mantle were all done by noted sculptor Thomas Kuntz (who also sculpted 4 of them (Nosferatu, Caligari, Golem, London After Midnight). Once again, thanks for your remarks.
Mord,

My wife is great and a monster kid too so she lets me decorate most of the apartment, our bedroom and kitchen are off limits though. She does wish that I would stop adding to the collection as she wants to get a house and sings to me her song " You can't build a house out of action figures"...she's so amusing.

I wasn't into pops at first, thought they look kind of goofy. But when the Cthulhu pop came out the dam burst & now I have a bunch of them. What I noticed is up close you can see that a lot of detail was put in the figures...

Here are some new pictures I've taken of the display cabinets in my monster room. First my main model kit cabinet:

Then my board game, lunch box and overflow model kit cabinet:

Finally, the overflow cabinet in Ace's bedroom where I keep and display whatever cool stuff for which there isn't sufficient room in my comic and toy room:
(http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g434/Balticprince/Halloween%202013%20%20Deuce%20Styx%20Cowboy%20Cake/DSCN3161_zpsc7049edc.jpg)

Quote from: Hepcat on November 12, 2015, 10:13:53 PMVery nice condition cover. Mine is that style, too, instead of the other pic you posted (with the "Living Stereo" banner at the top).

My cover isn't that nice because it's the one I had as a kid. Still, it has sentimental value so I haven't tried to upgrade it. My Dad brought it to me from the radio station he worked at in Dalton, Ga. in the '60s and '70s. Before I went into the Army in '85 I copied that album and some other monster albums to cassette tape and carried it with me all over the States and to Egypt and back. I would listen to it around Halloween, as well as other times. I played that tape again last Halloween in the car and it still plays after 30 years. :)

Just looked them over...the very first box (upper left) was from a company called Funrise, I couldn't find a date on it. After that Tyco had the name. Those came out in 1994. Then the odd shaped boxes are from a company called Umagine. The Zombie series is from 2011 and the Alien Autopsy series is 2012. I don't know if I have a complete series, I have all of them that Ive ever laid my eyes on lol.
The Creepy Crawlers are 1994.

I can understand Mike. But I just love sealed boxes. And if it helps, whenever I can find a model cheap enough, I do buy it and build it. Im fortunate to have a job that gets slow enough in the winter that allows me a little time through out the day to work on 'em. I will get a pic sometime of the stuff Ive built up so far. Just so you know, I don't paint them, I like to see them "naked" lol.

The Spooky Town pieces are really cool, and fairly expensive at full price. Did you get most or some of those in the after-Hween markdowns? I have some of the Spooky Town stuff and I picked them up cheap after Halloween for like 80% off.

Yeah they can get pricey lol. I get them from my local Michaels, and the great thing about them is that they accept any competitors coupons. So between them and AC Moore there is always a "50% off 1 item" coupon in my email. Plus like you said, after the season sales are the bomb.

That's a crazy impressive collection scarey1scd. I especially like the Remco Universal Monsters. Btw: I notice you have a framed picture of "Them!" Is that autographed and by whom? "Them!" is one of my fav 1950s monster films.

Awesome movie! I feel bad I cant remember the guys name...Ive got it on a business card somewhere. Met him at a Monster Bash convention. This was a print that he signed. He wrote on it "Spits all that's holding me together." I have one of his originals from "Curse Of The Demon" that's just too cool. Ill post that when I do the other rooms.

I love my Curse Of The Demon pic!! Its an original I picked up from an artist at a Monster Bash a couple years ago. He was trying out a different medium w/ this one. Out of all the pieces he brought, this one was my fav.

Not to speak for scarey1scd, but I take "Its an original I picked up from an artist at a Monster Bash a couple years ago" to mean the super cool original painting of the Demon from Curse of the Demon, as he pictured here:

All the posters, lobby cards and artwork in the hallway are originals. Don't know why its so important to me that they be originals, some miswiring in the brain lol. Ive considered repros of the "expensive" stuff, but still haven't brought myself to buying any yet. So there are a lot of super cool posters I don't have because I cant afford them. The only copy is the drawing of "Them" in my bedroom. But I bought that from the same guy I got the Demon pic...whos name I just remembered...Jay Fife.

Thanks Mike. It's a smaller collection, literally confined to just the cabinet at this point. I have a smaller showcase that I eventually will expand into as well, but space limits me from ever having a "monster room", as long as we stay in this house. I'll try to get some additional pics of the shelves in the next few days.

I love looking at everyones monster rooms. I did not see a Thread for this. So If its ok with the Mods I will start here. I think this would be cool to have one place to check em all out. This is my first try at posting a picture here. So don't get the silver bullets out just yet. HHW

Awesome stuff HH!!!
About a month ago I started to redo my room, it's a much slower process than I had hoped. It's like putting a puzzle together, gotta move an entire shelf for one piece etc... It's slowly but surely getting coming together.

Here are photos of my horror/monster collection taken at various points during the 1990's. The last time my collection was displayed like you see here was in about 1997, ever since then most of my collection has been in boxes in various parts of the house that I am living in now. The spare room that I have has my monster room is tiny and now I can only have a select few things out, every so often I delve into the boxes to either look at stuff or need to find something or to keep out on display etc.

Been dealing with a financial crisis the last couple years. Wife became extremely ill,lost her job,was classified by 4 different doctors as being disabled but even with a lawyer she was still denied her SSA disabilty. Sold decent sized house and over half my collection for a small townhouse. 1/4 the room from what I had.
Here are a couple not so great quality pics. I'll attempt to get a couple more in during the week. I mostly collect pre-code comic reprints these days when I can get them cheap.

HEY MJ
Really appreciate the offer. Actually I have 2 30 gallon tubs of monster stuff in my new tiny garage that I need to get rid of due to lack of space.
Again,very nice of you to offer. That is what makes this board so unique is that we may never meet in real life but we all care about each other.

Just tell them, "The girl who comes in once a week is not allowed to touch these fragile items, ever since... the incident. But, I don't like to talk about it.", and quickly move on. They will be so consumed in trying to imagine the incident, they will not think to ask, "But what about the rest of the house?"
Works for me.

Very cool! I'm so jelly of your Swamp Thing figures! I had all of them as a kid. And no Surfs Up! Batman or Joker to keep the others company? :)

Thanks guys! I appreciate the kind words. Yeah I had to put my monsters away for about two months. It was especially difficult knowing my prized positions were on a moving truck and out of reach. But everything made it here and now the Monster Room is stronger than ever.
Speedier: yeah, I really like the Batman 66 collection. I have some other DC universe stuff that didn't make the pictures I posted, but unfortunately don't have the surf's up editions.
Mike: thanks for the kind words. Yeah I really like that BOF piece. Only $10 too. Can't go wrong.
Dr. Borgo: I agree, Kiss goes well in any monster room. Marsattacks666 is a big Kiss fan on this forum too. Anyhow, my dad was a rock n roll/heavy metal dude, so when I was 5,6,7 yrs old, I would spend hours looking through his record collection. Of course I was drawn to anything 'monstery.' So right away my favorite bands were Kiss, Alice Cooper, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster Cult, Iron Maiden stuff like that.
So for me, rock n roll monsters mix very well with my movie monsters.

Hey, Hepcat
Yeah I miss a lot of things about the Motor City, including the sports teams (won't miss the winters and summer humidity though). I especially like the Tigers. I loved going to games there, great ballpark. Pretty disappointed they didn't make playoffs. Wings and Pistons have fallen on hard times last few years, but they had some great runs in mid 90s-mid 2000s.
I can't get down with the Lions though. Never liked them. I'm almost afraid to identify my favorite NFL team. I get along w/everyone on UMA and don't want to put that in jeopardy, lol! Let's just say my fav NFL team is a certain franchise in Texas. :o

Yeah, the winters in Detroit are pretty wimpy. You should have moved up to the Upper Peninsula where the winters are somewhat more rugged.

Awesome display. The Salem's Lot mask is amazing. The Frankensteins are great as well. Also, I have that Creature mask. For a mass produced mask, they did a good job with it.

Thanks thm,the Barlow mask is one of my favorites,Death Studios did a great job on him.
I see all those nice masks and think to myself, that room is crying out for one (just one) life-sized full figure.
If you ever add one, who would it be?

Yeah. I would be tempted to darken the ambience somewhat. It would look cool if it were dimly lit with small lights below each bust.
Then add a nice background soundtrack of storm noises and faint, distant howling.

Thanks guys,I think my wife would have something to say about me turning it into a spooky haunted house type place,now me on the other hand. If I made a full size Frank it would have to be a Glenn Strange Frank or a Barlow vampire. Ceilings are a little low for a tall Frank.

I was actually thinking more along the lines of a few decades of total neglect.

A wife?! Now why didn't you mention that sooner? Get her an outfit like this one:

And include her as part of the decor. She won't even need a broom if you're going for the much coveted old dungeon look.

Thanks guys! Really appreciate the kind words. Most of my figures are in storage. I just don't have the room to display them. I'm mainly a mask guy these days anyway. That room is so hard to take good pics in. The lighting isn't conducive to good photography.
Thanks The Batman! That's one of the things I love about masks, that they're life size.

Glenn, what are the little knick knacks around your Dawn of the Dead masks! I'm assuming that one is the bluray set (I still have my dvd box).I just can't make out the rest. That great Mezco Frankie figure gets lost among his bigger brothers. Once again, great collection. You keep it far more dust-free than I ever could.

The DVD is an unopened Divimax edition of the movie (DVD cases look better than Blu-ray IMHO) that I bought special for the display and next to Flyboy is a Dawn of the Dead lunch box, deck of playing cards and a coffee mug. I'd like to buy a plaid shirt for Airport Zombie so he can have a collar and partial shirt to enhance his display. Dust doesn't show up in pics. It's not as clean as it looks but I do try to keep it clean. :)

Very nice collection, Comix. Can't wait to see how you display them! I also bought that Toys R Us Mr. Hyde so I can display both him and Jekyll. I love that figure!

This is a work in progress. My mask collection is growing faster than I can get display cases up. I also have a ton of autographs that I am in the process of framing.
I have 4 masks either on the way or I am in the process of acquiring, including 2 more screen used Babylon 5 alien masks. Additionally, Mask Fest is soon approaching.

I'm getting my own room in our basement, but first the basement has to be finished. So, Lord knows when that's gonna happen. As for now I've taken over the table in our living room for all my Universal Monster toys and books. Luckily, my wife is totally fine with it.

Comixzombie you sir are a lucky man with a wife like that; were finishing our basement off at the moment as well my toys and statues are boxed up and sitting in my moms house in my old room.
Creepy how many more would you plan on getting? As I said we're finishing our basement at the moment and was envisioning some nice built in shelfs for the masks, but seeing this it looks just as sharp, though I think I'd run out of space before I'd run out of masks. :(

As to how many more am I getting....that's hard to say. I can tell you that I will be working on a "mask" room in preparation for eventual expansion of the collection.
However, in the area they are currently in, I plan on another case, next to the 3 that are there, for more Carol Hicks masks (I collect her work...as you may be able to tell). I also will eventually have 4 cases specifically set aside for the Don Post Calendar reissues. I have 3 and want the full line eventually. They will be on another wall, separately.
Lastly, in this room, I will have a single case for my Babylon 5 original, screen used aliens. You can see the Narn that I have. I also have a Drazi, a "Hammerhead" alien (down below dweller) and have a line on another original screen used alien. My Narn is about to head over to Tom Spina for some restoration/cleaning/stabilizing.
Mask collecting is my passion (as well as vintage posters...they fight for wall space), I want more vintage pieces but they are more difficult to obtain, so slower in the acquiring.

I'm late to the party, but Gory you have an outstanding collection do you mind private messaging me your home address, work hours, and if you could send me a key to dust your collection that would be great:)
Creepy I hear you sir I still collect my toys and statues, but masks quickly jumped in the forefront There just so damn cool and look amazing lined up together. Still reminds me when my mother would take me to party city or Spencer's for my mask on Halloween

I remember years ago, before internet shopping took off. Around Halloween time, you would walk into a seasonal Halloween store or a novelty store and they would have their rows of masks for sale. It was really something to behold. Especially since they would only appear around Halloween. You would be over whelmed, in a good way, with all the masks. Some you have seen before, but there would be many new ones.
Now a days, you have a bunch of on line mask stores that are just a click away everyday. Although I do like the availability. There was just somethings so special about seeing all the masks in person during one season a year.

There is still a fair amount of "hunting" to do, especially for vintage and rare , low edition masks. That's my focus.

Don't I know it. Just today we went on Retro-a-go-go! and picked out a few wall furnishings for our guest bathroom. It was mostly my idea, but she picked out something too, and she was completely behind the idea of a retro tiki/monster bathroom. She's pretty great.
I can't wait to post some pictures when our order arrives.

Don't I know it. Just today we went on Retro-a-go-go! and picked out a few wall furnishings for our guest bathroom. It was mostly my idea, but she picked out something too, and she was completely behind the idea of a retro tiki/monster bathroom. She's pretty great.
I can't wait to post some pictures when our order arrives.

Oh wow! Awesome stuff! I love "busy" look... lots to digest and enjoy!
I spotted your Space Ghost Coast to Coast gang - excellent taste! And the "Bugs" squishers - I'd forgot all about those! Too cool. I have those 7 little jiggler finger puppet monsters too, picked them up in an art museum gift shop haha! I dig your Gremlins tiki mug too, I'm holding out for the Aliens one.
Would you mind educating me on a few things, please? Like where did the Mad Monster Party figures come from?
Who made that giant rubber ugly?? He's super cool!
(http://i.imgur.com/ZLDwzUe.jpg)
And what about the Little Shop Audrey, the hanging bondage girl, and the Nosferatu Pez(?) guys? Can you please point me in the right direction for any of these? Like who made them so I can start a search? Thanks

Thanks STG! The busy look makes it feel like a party! Don't have the room to spread em out. I love my Squish bugs, the large ones are super rare.
The Mad Monster Party figures are made by Funko (way before the Pop figure days)
(http://i1101.photobucket.com/albums/g434/Balticprince/General%20Album%202/MadMonsterParty_zpsc6f7c181.jpg)
The big rubber ugly is by Zac Amendolia. He custom makes these things and they are beautiful. He also puts squeakers in their mouths. Check him out: http://zacart.storenvy.com/ (http://zacart.storenvy.com/)

The Audrey is a coin bank. Its supposed to close its mouth when you put a coin in it, but mine doesn't work. Not sure if its official merch or not.

The "nosferatu pez" figures are a character called The Ghoul made by Craig Gleason. He's a cool monster! Sort of a mix between Nosferatu and the Metaluna Mutant.

Don't know a whole lot about them, they were from a promotion where other famous Japanese characters were redesigned in this style. They had shirts and notepads and other stuff too.

That is amazing. Tomb of Dracula is my favorite comic book series.
Thanks, I'm a big fan of the Marvel horror titles from the 70's.

The Dark Rider of Mordor Premium Format Figure.

Wayne made a lot of pictures over his career. I can't think of any horror / sci-fi films he made. You'd think there would have been at least one.

I don't recall Haunted Gold. Hmmm, I guess he technically did do a horror film.
Haven't seen any of the Dukes films prior to Stagecoach. He did some real B movies prior to his work with John Ford.

I dunno I think the likeness on the Tweeterhead statues are on point. I used to own the Sideshow Coffin Elvira PF.. but sold it.
I kept the first Elvira PF...I love that one.

Outstanding collection and set up Crossbonez74! You might want to move that beautiful Wraith statue on the horse away from the window. In time, the repeated light from the window will fade the color. I think since you protect everything else very well, you probably already know this. ;D

Thanks horror_man! That's a bad idea to block out some of the UV. I might put a extra curtain in that room since that piece is so close to the window.

Great collection Crossbonez74!! Really dig the Shogun Warriors. I have the Godzilla and hope to add the Shogun figures some day. The Rodan is like my holy grail. Great 12 inch Sideshow figures too. I also have the White Zombie---one of my collection favorites. Cool Castle GraySkull too.

After collecting for 25 years, and actually having sold everything off in it's entirety not once...but twice...I finally have a room to put it all on display in. I have to hold on to everything, as the jobs I have now don't pay nearly what my previous occupation did. So I don't add much to the line up these days. Its all been in a walk in closet for God knows how long. The only drawback is I am gonna have to dust regularly now,lol. My oldest son moved out, my missus wanted her walk in closet after all these years, and here we are. Painted the walls a nice purple for contrast. Not that you see much of the walls, mind you. Enjoy.

Hey Richard, hope you have a pull out bed, because I'm on my way over.lol Hard to say what's the most impressive thing , it's so overwhelmingly awesome. The autographs of Chaney, Karloff and Lugosi probably stand out the most to me, if I had to choose. My brain is on sensory overload.lol

Wow! Incredible how much stuff you amassed again after selling everything off twice. But what prompted you to sell everything off those two times, and when and how did you sell everything? Did you have just as much stuff at those times as you do now?

Holy crap. Through the course of my life I have had occasion to be in many, many peoples homes. Just once, I would love to visit someone and walk into a room like this out of the blue. It would explode my mind.

The first time was pretty early on. Didn't have as much then. It was because of a girl I was dating at the time ::). Yes, I know. RIDICULOUS. :-[ She hated the stuff, and I needed the money. I sold it off to two friends. After I broke up with the girl (an extremely brief episode lasting a mere 6 months), they GAVE it back to me. The second time, I changed occupations for personal reasons. So I sold the whole kit and kaboodle to a single fella TO SURVIVE THE CRISIS, paying off debts. He held onto it, hit his own personal crisis, and sold it back to me complete and untouched (I think he bought it just to help me, and I returned the favor). I have added to it considerably over the years. Nowadays I don;t make the sort of funds I used to. So my primary focus is in trying to hold onto what I have, rather than add more.

The wife has been very supportive of my hobby. When I sold things off the second time (she obviously didn't know me the first time out) it truly upset her. She was thrilled when I got it back, and has told me I won't be doing that again unless we hit "rock bottom",lol. I have sold some things off over the years that I bashed, were impulse buys, etc. even though I now try to hold onto stuff more. I could literally start a whole thread of things I no longer have,lol. Mostly newer stuff though. But a collection is like a living thing. It changes over the years.

Yes, some of the stuff was very personal too. Especially all the stuff I had signed by Vincent Price from writing to him in the late 80's/early 90's . So seeing they weren't bothered at all was very much a relief. It won't happen a thrid time. i think i would rather live in a refrigerator box and pay for a storage shed to put my stuff in rather than sell it off again. Third time wouldnt be a charm. That "empty corner" you mentioned is so I can open the door to get into the room,lol.

Forry Ackerman displayed in layers. I think that may be where I learned this. Thanks for the compliments. Sharing is what this board is about, but that's fallen off. I am happy that the pics ignited discussion. I encourage others to share. JP (Wolfman) showed me his collection in emails. Its ASTOUNDING!!!

This is the same thing my wife asked. I told her the closet was a Tardis. Bigger on the inside than out the out,lol. It was floor to ceiling, and you couldn't go in. I literally couldn't even look at my stuff. the other night I came into my room and listened to Verne Langdon albums on MP3 and just looked at my stuff,lol. Think Fibber McGee and Mollie's closet fr a mental picturization.

If you have a small kat size box put it on the floor near the shelf. Kats seem to love to climb into boxes so that might distract him.

I am a huge Kaiju fan. Probably half of my collection is Kaiju related. My favorite look for Godzilla is the 1962 version, followed by Shin Godzilla. I used to post a lot of Kaiju figures here, however, there didn't seem to be much interest in Kaiju on this site.
Did you buy the newly released Favorite Sculptors Line X Plus Godzilla 1962 X plus figure? It is the most accurate G 62 ever released. Imo, better than any previous G 62 figure or model.

Although '62 is my favorite suit, I dont think any Xplus '62 will beat out my '62 Paradise Godzilla vinyl model. So I am holding on to some money for other things for now.

I have the vintage Paradise huge Godzilla 1962 model. Although it is one of my all time favorite Kaiju figures, the Favorite Sculptors line G 62 is seems more accurate. Here is my Paradise G 62 model. Since the pic was taken, I darkened the claws slightly.
For comparison. The last pic is the new Favorite Sculptors G62. The accuracy is amazing.

Quote from: the_horror_man on September 14, 2018, 10:50:52 PMThe Xplus is extremely nice and accurate. Only thing that irks me is the lip ridges seem a little too pronounced. Idk..makes him have a smile when seen from the side. Dont get me wrong...I'd buy it in a hearbeat if I had the coin. {Trying to fight it}. So many Xplus figures and also SH Monsterarts that I never got since I took a collecting hiatus for many years. Already bought two SH monsterarts and 1 Xplus preordered.

What is that Christmas ornament? It's not the Radco.

Hey guys thanks for the response, as you can see I only collect one Universal Monster, the CREEEEEEECH!
The 1:1 is a first Gen Mark Alfrey commissioned by Greg Nicotero. I did a trade with Greg many years ago for this casting and I believe only three or four were produced.
The ornament is custom made by my wife. She made me salt and pepper shakers a few years ago in ceramic of her own design. Last year she took one of the greenware shakers and made me a black and white ornament.
Always looking to unusual Creature or Rare items.

The original Half sheet was framed by Chris Chapman and totally custom.
Another shot of my display room, I collect a lot of different things.....Creature is my passion, but I like the obscure.

What a great looking collection :o
Is that a screen used Cylon costume? Also who's the face cast of on the lower left hand side of the cabinet? It almost looks like Bruce Campbell.
Thanks for sharing,
Ian

Thanks Guys,
The Cylon is made by a gentleman in Canada and is the best replica I've ever seen. I don't think I could afford an original. The Bruce Campbell head came from Greg Nicotero and was used in Army of Darkness and displayed at KNB.

Thanks for the reply and it's an amazing Cylon costume that looks more than accurate enough to be the real thing. I though that was Bruce and that's extra cool that it's from Greg Nicotero, great pick up ;D

Yes, Gary Pullin did that for Mondo. I have his SPIDER BABY print also (signed by Sid Haig, Jack Hill and Beverly Washburn). I'm debating whether to have Ricou sign that at Monster Bash or leave it virgin.

Truly awesome to have a Spiderbaby print and to have Jack Hill sign it. I met Beverly Washburn at a Fangoria convention.

Not ready to showcase new and improved monster room just yet, but here's a sample. I think you all know that I'm a black sabbath nerd. I have a lot of rock n roll monsters in my collection (Alice Cooper, Kiss, Misfits, Iron Maiden, King Diamond). But there's not a lot of Sabbath collectibles out there. So I made this collage. You'll notice a picture of me and the real Geezer Butler at the bottom. Picture was taken over 20 yrs ago. The funny thing is the real Geezer has aged better than me! He more or less looks the same today. Me on the other hand, well let's just say I haven't missed many meals in last 20 yrs :D

Mike, yes. The band name was inspired by the film's name.

There are monster rooms, and then there are monster rooms. This may be the ultimate monster room. A home theater with a 100" screen, high-definition, 3-D projection, simulated stereo surround sound for the old mono movies, and a library of 100's of classic monster films on Blu-Ray and DVD!!! As a kid I could only dream about something like this!

I have black shades in the new and improved monster room. But i put up red curtain as well. So if you open the shades a bit and let sun shine through curtains, it looks pretty rad.

Thanks for the kind feedback everyone. Believe it or not there are those out there that make my collection look like I just started last week. Always fun to share collection pics and see what others out there have no matter what the genre. Best part is when you see a toy from yesteryear that you forgot about until it pops up in someone's collection.

If you can't beat 'em in quantity, go for quality. Strive to post the very best pictures of individual items.
Many of us will never get the chance to hold some of the items you have. Wow us with super clear, close-up pictures from many angles, or against really attractive backgrounds.
David didn't try to punch it out with Goliath - he went with his strength.
Besides, we like both your collections.

You and I have very similar collections. Lots of the same items. Those X plus Gigantic Series figures take up so much room. A few of mine are on the floor. I would like to see X Plus do a Giantic Series Showa King Ghidorah figure. Image the room that thing would take. ;D

Hey, Gojirafan
Once again, great collection. I've complimented you on the Mattel Rodan before. Looks great. That's my holy grail. But if I could pick a close second holy grail, it would be the Godzilla vs Tricephalon playset. Do you have that in your collection? I had that as a child, but unfortunately don't have any pieces left. THM, do you have that set? Seems very difficult to find. Thanks.

You guys with windows in your toy rooms need to block that UV light out. It's gonna do a lot of damage to your stuff. Get some of that Clear UV Blocking Window Film and go to town with that stuff. Save the colors and block that UV!

Welcome to come look at the case anytime. I do indeed have two Alfrey Creatures, one by KNB Effects and only three made to my knowledge and the later Alfrey that was more accurate. I also did the restoration on the Alvarez Creature and made the molds and castings being sold by the family.

I live just down I-75 from you in the Chattanooga area. It would be worth the drive someday to see that glorious gill-man greatness in person. Of course it would have to be after this pandemic mess is just a bad memory. Maybe I'll PM you one year and set up a visit. I have some Creature prints you may not have, as well as an original Creature painting, that I could bring to show you so you would have a little something to look at as well. Nothing to sell, just stuff to show to a fellow collector. I also have a couple of autographed trading cards and a personalized photo of Julie Adams I could bring to show, and I might be able to dig up some other obscure Creature items you would enjoy seeing. Again, your Creature collection is literally awesome! Congrats on an impressive accomplishment.

Very cool. The life-size creature is amazing. Plus the added Donald Duck touch of swamp wildlife.

I think of it as "Pawn Shop" or "John's Junque" store. Where things are just crowded into available space, pending sale.
I like it. Not as museum-y as each piece being on a pedestal with it own lighting, but more casual and homey - the sort of store I would love to spend an hour searching every nook and cranny.

Yeah I have a ton of original artwork, Universal style guide pages, books, iron ons, signatures, stickers, tats, tons of paper stuff. Most of it's in my flat files unless it made it's way into the case.

I love the iron-ons, but some of them you can't see if they aren't ironed on something. I buy just the Creature cards from the various monster card sets, like the various Topps sets, etc. There's all kinds of odd sets, like Pepsi cards and obscure foreign sets. Then there's greeting cards and all kinds of other stuff.

1. I can't find the Aurora long box Creature kit, the Hasbro Creature Mystery board game, the Hasbro Creature Painting by Numbers set, the Collegeville Creature costume or the SPP Creature-Wolf Man wallet. Are they in there someplace?
2. Is that display case old store stock or did you buy it new? I'm now wondering where to buy surplus store display cases cheap.

Mystery Game, Check!
SPP Wallet, Check!
Long Box Creech, Recently got an original, need to replace the re-issue in the case, Check!
Paint by numbers and Collegeville set, will pay good money for it if someone is selling!
Need the Castex Universal Monster set, AHI Squirt gun and anything else I'm missing! :)

Of course we would all have monumental collections if we could, but there's also something to be said for looking up at the mountain in admiration as opposed to owning it. We get what we can over the years and maybe we appreciate what we have even more if we don't have it all (or, as close to all as possible).
On the other hand...screw that BS! I want it ALL!!! >:D :laugh:

"Funny Monsters" is the official name of the YDL '59 set. That name is on the wrappers and the box. The set is commonly called "You'll Die Laughing", because that's what is written on the card backs, same as the "Creature Feature" '73 and '80 sets.

No. I only buy wrappers that have the Creature on them. This one I just printed. It filled an otherwise empty pocket. :)

Quite so! The "Monster Cards" (blue) card is also a seat warmer. Haven't been able to find a single of one of those, yet.
Update: I have one, now.

About decade ago, there was a Creature from the Black Lagoon Pinball machine in a budget Cinema. I offered the Owner a substantial amount to sell me the Pinball machine. Declined. When the Theater closed years later. The owner's machine and whatever contents in that Theater were left behind, He could not retrieve any items.

The theatre owner probably owed the landlord unpaid rent. Had you contacted the landlord, the three of you may have been able to work something out at a reasonable price for the machine.

I love that Creature pinball machine, unfortunately I've never been able to play one, or even seen one. Pinball machines are getting harder to come by now. A few years ago I bid on a Dracula one, but lost out by a wide margin. I already have no room in my house. I may have been sleeping in the yard if I brought one home and the wifey seen it, lol.

Yeah. That was where I stole the picture.
You might want to offer to buy the single card, if they don't sell as a pair.

Yeah, Glow-in-the-Dark. Or should, I say "Glow-in-the-Dark". I think I actually have that one somewhere at my parents' house, but I don't know what condition it is in. If I remember correctly, I never could ever get it to really glow correctly. That said, I don't believe that's a slammer (though it's possible the one I'm remembering is different than that in the picture).

The White pogs don't glow well at all. They are just as thin as the paper ones and may even weigh less.
Imperial's trademarked name "Slammer Whammers" appears on all the pogs - even the paper pieces. The only actual Slammers are the familiar thick, plastic ones, or the special UK metal Frankenstein issue:
The U.K. issued this special Brass Frankenstein Slammer - not available in the U.S.

Another wall of my monster room. I framed the large portfolio set of USPS monster artwork with a stamp motif background. I also created a couple of custom stamps that they should have released, using Ed Repka's great artwork. Sorry about the overlap.

Of course Lucie Fière (the original spelling) is a woman. Here's a great shot of Lucie in all her glory:

Quote from: Hepcat on February 11, 2021, 11:07:11 AMLucie Fière (the original spelling)
So we know that Lucifer was banished from Heaven by God for the moral failing of pride, that most deadly sin of the seven. Meanwhile, the French word "fière" en anglais = proud. Therefore we know that the name "Lucifer" is derived from French. So the closest French name to the "Luci" part is "Lucie" which is of course a girl's name.
It all fits. Lucifer is therefore clearly a woman.

More non-room stuff. We should change the title to "Show Your Monster Collections".
Seems like half the Creature stuff I've been buying the last couple of years have been pins and patches (and stickers), mostly from the same three companies. Click for a much larger photo.

No, they sold out of the first series very quickly (only 50 sets made). Series II is available for pre-order from Dee Monster (Bride, Phantom, Invisible Man, Metaluna Mutant). Weird, they are still Aurora pins, even though they never released an Invisible Man or Mutant model. :o

It's a digital camera, but not a phone. The problem is, when I click the shutter the camera moves, blurring the picture. I just can't hold it steady enough, I guess.

I've had the same problem as well although not to your degree. I've been thinking of getting a tripod. Using a tripod would also enable a slower shutter speed thus deepening the exposure and further improving the image.

Use the tripod.
Close down your aperture so your camera shutter speed is much slower, and your depth of field is deeper.
Use a cable release for your exposure button.

Thanks for the advice! No place to attach a cable release, though.

Got a bunch of new (repro) posters in the last few months. The SAUCER-MEN OS is new. The 4 Inserts are new. 3 of the WCs are new and 5 of the LCs.

How about a timer setting on your camera? You gotta at least have that. My digital camera is a zillion years old and it has one...2 and 10 second. Set the timer while it's on your tripod, click the shutter to auto-focus, then click the button, wait...and voila! Your probably blurring it when you hit your button. I use to do the same thing, then I started using a tripod and the camera's timer settings. No more blurry pics.
BTW, nice poster collection. Love all those movies.

Sorta getting started redoing the Creature room. Doing the walls, first. Here's one corner I finished, with all the Super 7 Creature minis and a Creature print (forget the artist) and big metal cut-out from Retro-a-go-go.

Unfinished corner and it's gonna stay that way, for a while.
Couple of nice prints by Gogos and Vin Di Fate. Iron-ons and cut-outs and "who peed"s.
The empty area is for 4 other iron-ons. Two I have, but need framing. Still trying to acquire the others.

I have the one where his head is above water and says "L&H '75" on it and the Roach "I got this way from Swimming". What I need is the Roach "Teacher FTBL" and the smaller (6"?) Roach that just says CFTBL and has the still with him grabbing at you.
All of those Roach ones are hard to find, and you have to iron them on to see them.

I just downloaded a medium quality image file online; cleaned it up, tweaked the color in some areas, and enlarged it to 18"x 39" (the size of the really nice frame I got). It looks great at a distance, but up close you can detect some of the image quality issues. I can send you the file if you would like.

Alright...
I took some pictures last night of my updated Monster Room. Lots of stuff added and I opened a lot of my items. It really makes room for a lot more stuff to get rid of those bulky bubble cards! LOL
Also, I made the decision (inspired by some collections here) to mix up my monsters...grouped by type instead of by specific monster. It really looks great and there's SO much more to look at now.

Those two halloween costume figures are made by Aleksandar Jeftic under his BKC.TOYS name.
He does amazing custom work that I have a couple of and is a really nice guy to deal with.

Looks like you've got the Ben Cooper mask on a Collegeville costume and the BC extra Creature mask with the BC costume.
I don't think Aleksander cares too much about absolute accuracy. He just puts it together to look cool.

He uses the wrong King Kong mask/ Smock combo also. 76 mssk with pre 76 art on costume.

It's a custom from Haunt Kraft (created by my friend Eric Von Gorr). I also have one of his zombie figures in the zombie section.
Here are a couple of closeups of his figure of the legendary horror hostess, Tarantula Ghoul:

Hi Hepcat,
Wow, blast from the past! Thanks!
Actually, about 65-70% of my collection was only acquired within the last couple of years.
I've always had a smallish monster collection, but decided to really focus on expanding it in recent years.

I've had the 8" Sideshow figures, a couple of the 12" ones, the artwork prints, posters, record albums, magazines, a lot of the Dark Shadows stuff, and random vintage and modern items for many years. I had a book shelf and a display case with most of the items in them. I also aready had lots of books and DVDs and have kind of a library with all of that in it.
The rest, I gradually got from eBay (Aurora models, Anchor-Hocking glasses, AHI and 70's Mego figures, Remco figures, many of the 12" Sideshow figures, Lincoln-International mummy, etc.) Others, I got from collectibles stores, Facebook, and sometimes cons. The modern items like the NECA figures, Super7 figures, and current Mego figures, I got from places like Big Bad Toy Store. And I got the big Hammer statues directly from Sideshow.
I had to move out of Salem at the time, and was kind of down in the dumps as I really liked it there. Watching my friend Ray's videos (Raymond Castile's Basement of Horror and longtime UMA member) really cheered me up at the time and inspired me to focus on expanding my monster collection. I started selling off many of my non-monster collectibles to help pay for all of the vintage monster stuff, so it was kind of like a trade. Plus, not paying rent in Salem anymore helped a lot.
I don't have much room left in there, so I had to put on the brakes a bit. It's been fun though. The 'Dark Shadows Wing' of the Monster Room serves as a nice backdrop for the video version of my DS podcast.

I love, love, love the AHIs! I lucked out in finding a Creature with decent paint, although there is a little screw in one of his ankles that was apparently used to re-attach his foot. Doesn't bother me one bit though. I think they all look great standing together.

Thanks for the help on the modify link, found it tonight on the web version which was great. I don't plan to modify often but if I catch my own grammar mistake I like to be able to go back and fix it LOL.

I've tried to think about what I could put inside them that would complement and not detract from their design and I never came up with anything so they sit empty on top of my candle holders.

Maybe one of those color changing LED light pucks would look cool if the room was a little dark so they could glow from the top of their heads?

Barnabas is out of production if I am not mistaken. There were more DS characters planned, but they aren't going to happen now sadly. His Usher is amazing. Most of his stuff is in fact. Pickman's model and Monster on the Campus are really great too.

Then I venture out again to terrorize the neighbourhood for a few hours:

Then I crash the midnight gathering of the Neighbourhood Ladies' Social Club:

The Standard Plastic Products Phantom of the Opera plaque is the same one he's owned since the mid-1960's.

The Wolf Man picture beside the Hasbro Wolf Man Oil Painting by Numbers set is one he painted as a kid and kept to the present day.

Still working on the "Creature Room". Got some new storage units, so I could get some of my junk out of the closets. Terrible photos!

You were talking about all of those "Monsterville" items and I couldn't believe that was 7 years ago! Where do the time go?

Even things from the '90s seem like "Modern" collectibles. I have to get back to the '70s to get to something that seems legit "vintage".
