              Universal Studio Screamers - Vinyl Figures - Series 1 - 2021


I don't see any mention of how tall they are.  People who have opened these and are selling specified figures are asking $100 for the Creature.

I saw a photo of one in somebody's hand. They look like about 4 inches.

The Universal online catalog Prices:

I guess the scalpers are only asking double the usual price for most of these figures.  (Go figure.)

Except the Creature, which is 5 times as much!

For these sorts of things I kinda understanding caving and paying the scalpers. Who knows now many unopened figures you'd have to buy at retail to get the one you want.

I could buy 6 of them for what they are asking for the Creature. As a matter of fact, I think that is just what I'm going to do! Sell the others for $20 ea. and get my Creature for $20 .  :)

I bought a Frank for $25.00.  Worth it to me not to have to open all those boxes and try to sell the extras.  (Who the hell is "Chance"?)

That's one strategy. Kinda depends on just how rare the Creature is though. There are six different figures, and if they're saying Creature is limited edition on top of that, I'm going to guess the odds of getting one are much less than 1/6.

Besides Frankenstein, Chucky and Gillman, most of them are Halloween Horror Nights "Icons", which are essentially mascots for it. Different years they have different ones, so since this is the 30th anniversary of them having Halloween Horror Nights, it looks like it's a commemorative sort of thing. So these are two of them, Jack and Chance:

Absolutely not my thing, but when Masters of The Universe did their blind box thing you could find the serial numbers for each one online and then know what you were getting in the store.   I managed to snag an exclusive that way at retail.   Check the bottom of the box, if there's a number try putting it online and you'll get the master list of the others too.  It's a long shot but it's possible.

I thought the only "store" where you can get them is the Universal store? None of those around here.

Got my Frank in the mail today.

He is 3 inches tall.

          Beneath the Bar Code:  4  0001350793  8

          Is this smaller Number:  #842213  -  Is this the individual number for the Frankenstein Figure?


Anybody else have a Frankenstein box to compare to mine?  Any other figure boxes with differing numbers?

No.  Paid $25 to an eBay seller.

(I'm assuming he sent me the correct box.)

The Studio Screamers, Series Two is out.

(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52325181164_504a06163d_o.jpg)
                                            Universal Monsters - Studio Screamers, Series Two - Wolfman

Note the other 5 figures in Series Two are Bride of Frankenstein, Casper, Michael Myers, Director and Pumpkin Lord.  Odd group.  I guess they are saving Invisible Man and Dracula for a Series Three?


They are also making this 12" Popcorn Bucket.

(https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52323948787_c636a14367_o.jpg)
        Studio Screamers - Frankenstein - Popcorn Bucket - 12 in. x 6.5 in.- 2022

The paint job isn't a detailed as it was on the little figure in Series One.

They are also doing the enamel pins as they did with Series One.


They are for sale at Universal Studios Park in Florida.  I just saw that the 12" Frankenstein Bucket originally went on sale for $25.00, but the Park price was raised to $38.00 a few days later..  The eBay prices are MUCH more than that.

I think a neutral face would have worked better with Frank.    Like the Mini Mates.    Wolf looks bettter the more I see it.

Sorry I posted the Plush Screamer and the B&W Screamer over at the Keychain thread.  I will repost them here to keep things together a bit more.

Universal is also selling this 10 in. Frankenstein Plush, based on the Screamer design.

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!

Think I'll pass on the Plush.

I got the bucket from someone who must have paid the original $25.00 price, 'cause it was WAY cheaper than eBay sellers are charging now.

If I can get a reasonably priced B&W 5" figure, I will.  Anyone know what the in-Park price is?

Good luck selling those! I don't buy t-shirts. There's just way too many of them! I'd rather have something I can set on a shelf.
