Title: DST Dracula gets a facelift, information supplied too
Post by: Anton Phibes on October 05, 2020, 02:00:20 PM
OK, if you wanna upgrade your DST to have a custom Lugosi mug, here is an option. There is a replacement head available via Escape Hatch that was made for the Haunted Manor re-issue kit. A hairdryer and a hobby knife can be used to trim out the old DST neck area once the plug is removed. Then paint and glue in the head. I will post more shots when I get mine done. It's a good fit though.


Link to buy one:

I really like this Idea. I was hoping some one would do something like this. You guys sure do cost me a lot of money. Now I have to order this.

It isn't expensive, and with 2020 dampening everything and then some....a little Halloween distraction may prove stimulating. Here's some more shots.

Odered mine and its on its way. Was not that expensive, you are correct. Can't wait to get rid of the generic Dracula head.

Not entirely on topic (feel free to delete), but I'm totally willing to sell my figure, if anyone's looking for one.
Actually I just want to get rid of it. (Space and all.) The pegs on the base broke off, but I believe it's complete, otherwise.

would have done, but the security certificate for that website ins't updated or secure, and didn't see a paypal link. No way I'm putting card info in. Oh well, I liked the idea but that's life.

A link for paying via Paypal always shows up for me. Thats the only way I pay.
