Any info on these? Appears to be pewter. The figure is referred to as "The Monster", with no mention of Frankenstein, which I suppose is technically correct, but probably due to licensing...lol

I have a pewter werewolf off of eBay and the listing said it was from 1979 by Valiant. Appears to be from the same time/series as your Frankenstein monster.
The fact that you have a werewolf answers another question that I did not address in my initial post. The question being if there were other monsters in the line. Would love to see pics of the others...

I don't believe that calling a character "Frankenstein" or "Frankenstein's Monster should create a licensing problem, if that were the case, Edison could have sued Universal in 1931.
its not an issue to use the word Frankenstein as long as it doesn't resemble one of universals renditions of the monster...you can't use Karloffs likeness, or anyone elses... NOT to say it doesn't happen ..just dont get caught! lol
Lol. Well, it's clearly based on Karloff. Thanks for the info everybody. Much appreciated.
