Whoa!!!
I've been waiting for photos and packaging (if any). This "blind packaging" crap is getting old! If you want something particular, you have to buy it from eBay, at 3 times the price. :P

These retailers are getting smarter. They know scalpers will buy a lot of them and sell on EBay.
Coming in December:
Monogram Universal Monsters 3D Foam "Bag Clips". These 2 inch figures are attached to a 3 inch clip.

Well....if Jason, Michael , Leatherface and Freddy can look cutesy. I guess the Unimonsters can, too.

Monogram Universal Monsters 3D Foam "Bag Clips".
OIC "Bag Clip". Yes, you could clip it onto a bag, as long as the bag has a loop of some sort. You could also clip it to a key chain. Neither of which I'll be doing with mine. (Just bought one from eBay. Thanks, Adam!)

I thought the eBay seller was saying that they were intended to clip to the kids' backpack zippers as a "pull". That's where I got my name for them - from his listings. (I mis-read his listing.)
The eBay scalper I stole the pictures from has them early. The Amok Tome announcement says, "Coming December".
Just got an email that mine has already shipped. (Wonder how he got his so soon?)
These certainly aren't my thing, but if you're into them, more power to ya.
SO....is that the only Dr. Frankenstein piece of merch out there???

Only if they have a big-ass zipper handle with a big-ass hole in it.

Creature is kinda cute. He is made up of a lot of pieces, huh?
They made Dracula's medallion a cross....lol. ::)

Maltese Cross. (Looks more like a German WWI Iron Cross.)
Probably too many tiny pieces to make the fancy snowflake-looking pattern Drac wears in the movie.

That's the one! Looks like the "Chocolate Maltese Cross".

A cross is a cross. Dracula's chest would go up in flames.

Got my Creature "keychain" today. They are made of really hard rubber.
Adam. It does look like his arms are glued on. I imagine the head is, too.

Isn't every color a different piece of rubber - not just painted?

No, I was thinking about the picture in my earlier post. I remembered being impressed by such a small detail.

In that pic the head and body are the same color. The body on mine is a darker green.

Looks like they used flash - did you?
The little purple "Horrified" game piece Creature looks all kinds of shades depending on the lighting, too. That's why it was so hard to imagine before customers had them in hand.

I think the answer lies here, in the first image. It's not Rains. It's the Chaney Phantom. Just with a mask. I don't know why they made the change. I wonder about that.
Also notice that originally there was gonna be the Metaluna Mutant, before they changed it to Dr Frankenstein.

I wouldnt have even bothered but i know some of you are junkies for any licensed product.
;D
They're fun to get in person, but I wouldn't bother online. Got a few S1 last year at Spirit. Not really about the product. More about the experience.
Guess I'll wait to see what the eBay scalpers want for the Creature. >:(

Monster Bash drummer, I believe.
Have a cousin in Orlando, so I'm trying to get him to snag me one of those Frankenstein popcorn buckets if he goes to HHN.

Is that what it is? Is this the pinball game, or the magazine/con, or something else?
Well, they've added another version of the Studios Screamers Frank. This one is bigger than the keychain, smaller than the Bucket or Plush - and Black & White!

The Frankenstein Studios Screamer Popcorn Bucket is listed in the Universal Studios Store.

I dig the popcorn bucket and Michael Myers Keychain.

The pinball.

The pinball.
So, there were plush toys related to the pinball machine?
I ordered the popcorn bucket on Thursday through universals website, price as usual is crazy with shipping. Called and inquired how to get the B&W Frankenstein screamer since it was a park exclusive, they have no way of obtaining this for me they say. Universal only has a merchandising unit through the Orlando park (Hollywood park no website for merchandise.) Its not listed for sale on the Orlando website. So can not order it. Any know something I don't about how to get one. Im not even going to check Ebay Im sure that would be an arm and a leg.
