The Wolf Man Custom 8" Figure up for Auction! UMA Toy Tour Figure!

[mjaycox]

Greetings again, all. The second UMA toy tour figure tie-in up for auction is, as promised, "The Wolf Man" as he appeared in "House of Frankenstein." The auction is scheduled to start tomorrow (Sat.) at noon CST. The first auction for the "Teenage Frankenstein" is doing well, has a lot of watchers, and will probably attract a decent number of bids in the last few minutes. Thanks to members of the UMA who bid.

PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM MAKING NO MONEY OFF THESE FIGURES, AS ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO TO DIRECTLY HELP THE UMA TRAVELING TOY SHOW 2008. SO PLEASE BID ACCORDINGLY. IT IS FOR A GOOD CAUSE.

On to the Wolf Man:

This gorgeous 8" Custom  Monster figure was lovingly hand made by me, complete with real fur on the chest! Outfit is authentically styled. He is made to look like he just prowled off the screen. The body is fully poseable, and features some moves even Mego didn't think of, including a head that can swivel and look in all directions. This figure's look is based specifically on the appearance of the Wolfman in "H.O.F." Jack Pierce's brilliant make-up changed several times over the course of the various Wolf Man movies. I feel the make-up reached it's peak with this film. Note that Wolfie has fully poseable flat feet. By the time of this film, Lon Chaney's character was no longer walking on tip-toe. Also note the characteristic mud splotches on his slacks. He looks like he just came from a midnight walk through the forests of Vasaria! Every effort was made to give this figure film-accurate looks. You won't be disappointed when you get him in your home. Sure to be the centerpiece of and Wolf Man collection!

Here are the pics. The auction link will follow.

Truly spectacular piece, Matt.  Thanks so much for doing this for the UMA and the toy tour!

There are a lot of Wolf Man toys out there, but I have never seen an articulated Wolf Man figure that had the same level of authenticity and charm.  Several figures have one or the other, but not both.

   Articulated? I didn't know that he spoke well, too!


    "Meek"(speak the speech, I pray you . . .)

[gracebuster]

It is perfection!

Plain and simple.

Very nice. Wipes drool away from fang.

Just a friendly reminder, this auction ends in less than 24 hours. This will likely be your only chance to own this great Wolf Man figure, and official UMA toy tour tie in. Don't miss out! Help support the UMA toy tour! In my humble opinion, I think he is the best of the three figures being offered for auction.

I could not be more thrilled with this cool custom figure! It is, hands down, the best I've ever seen!!!
Pictures just can't do justice to how detailed this piece is!!! It is worth every penny-and then some.
Here are some pictures of "Wolfie" in his new home.
