This is a Franklin Mint piece I found on Ebay. Thought it was kind of cool and got it for $31, which I thought was a good price. Wonder what it sold for directly from Franklin Mint? Anyone know?

My mom got me one of these for Christmas a few years back and I think they were more than $31...maybe 50ish?
That is great man... Gonna have to look for one of these for sure. I love the neck bolts! ;)
Robert - I also picked one up on ebay recently. From a seller in Alaska. Shipped it to me by parcel post and it took three weeks to get here. I think it's really cool and I also wondered what they originally sold for.

I didn't know they existed, Jeff, and here two turn up close together! It's a strange and wonderful world everywhere!
There are another three goblets on eBay at the moment, although they range in price from $59 to $149. Trying to insert the hyperlink here is totally messing up the page format but you can easily find them in eBay stores by searching "Frankenstein+goblet".
They're multiplying like coat hangers in a dark closet!
$59

While on a trip I stopped in a store and found this. A 3 sided Frankenstein goblet. The pictures don't do it justice. It is a licensed item.

U-Steve, I'm glad you found one of these--is it not just truly the coolest? The relief sculpts on every panel are tremendous--and those neck bolts! Yikes! Makes a person want to say--"Wi-i-ine GOO-O-D!"

Thank you. It is very cool. I wish they did the other monsters. I paid $60.00 for it a couple of weeks ago. Not a bad price.
That goblet is so cool! Every monster kid needs one. I will have to keep my eyes open for one. ededed
