Title: Universal Studios Mold-A-Rama Frankenstein - Blue - 2022
Post by: Monsters For Sale on September 06, 2022, 01:25:18 AM
Looks like at least one of Universal's locations has brought back the Standing Frankenstein for Halloween Horror Nights, 2022.  I imagine these will be available in Florida. The Orlando park sems to issue many more souvenirs/collectibles than the California studio.

This year's moldy is Blue and poorly cast, as was earlier Horror Nights re-issues.  Don't know if they can't get the plastic formula right or tweak temperatures so it flows more smoothly, but they can't seem to duplicate the quality of the originals.

As usual, they are showing up on eBay before we get any official word from Universal.  (Why the hell can't they announce stuff like this for collectors?)

FRANKENSTEIN - Figure - Mold-A-Rama - Universal Studios, 2022

I hope Chicago's Brookfield Zoo issues another, smaller Standing Frankenstein this year.

Hope you don't get taken too badly.

I don't want one - too crudely made.

I do hope Brookfield Zoo makes another, smaller Standing Frank this Halloween.

My daughter got me the green standing Frankie when it was available.  Also got me a purple Frankie head.

Those Mold-A-Rama machines have always been a bit twitchy from time to time.  Sometimes they came out great, other times thick mold likes, or not enough plastic injected so there were thin sections or even openings in the molded piece.   When my daughter was young we took her to the Central Florida Zoo, and they had a Mold-A-Rama machine with a figure of Maude, their elephant.  My daughters came out perfect - mine was missing the head!

I see you can get the Frankenstein head directly from the mold-a-rama website - $10 each - 3 colors, silver, green and dark grey.

He looks a little stiff....maybe a bit blue, too. Sad, Franky

Going down to HHN in a few weeks, I love getting these! I give them out to folks during our bands Halloween Party Gig.

I got the Frankenstein Monster Mold-a-rama bust at Halloween Horror Nights 2021. I saw it at a haunted house style shop in the park, after a couple of employees claimed they didn't have them in the park. If I go this year, I definitely want one, if they have them at Universal Orlando.
