Yes, and maybe soften the Frankenstein image a bit.  That will make it really blend!   :)

Thanks for the tip and feedback. I'm still tampering with it somewhat. Trying to get the blue reflection on his left side to blend in more.
If the sky were black and blue it would appear stormy and give better contrast. The green sky looks too flat and doesn't make the foreground images pop the way they should. Maybe add a tinge of pink on the horizon at the hilltop like the sun were setting behind the storm.
ALWAYS MONSTERING...

Was hoping maybe to have one or two additional covers to post along with this since I find it a slight waste to just post one but currently I don't have enough resources. Oh well. More to come when they come.

I plan on redoing this one if one day I get a better scan of the Japanese LD cover.

Are there any other CFTBL (or sequels) domestic VHS releases besides the "Good Times" tape, the "MCA 3D" tape (both below), the 3 "Classic Collection" tapes and the 3 with one sheet poster covers, released at the same time as the first DVDs?

In answer to your question, I'm not sure if there were any other releases; however, here is a custom cover I made from one of the above covers.

When times are dark, don't consider art to be merely a distraction; rather, think of it as a lifeline-  Neil Gaiman paraphrase.

I saw that on my image search. Very nicely done!

As far as I know there are not. For CFTBL you pretty much nailed it. MCA 3D VHS, Goodtimes VHS, Classic Collection VHS, and Classic Monster Collection. For the two sequels there were the Classic Collection VHS' and the Classic Creature Collection VHS' with artwork modeled after those in the Classic Monster Collection. Interestingly the Creature sequels were the only films in the Classic Monster Collection that did not get a double feature DVD. They would not make their DVD debut until the 2004 Creature Legacy Collection.

Thanks! It's all I could find.

I thought that was interesting, too.

I picked up a Good Times CFTBL tape, just for a Creature collectible, from ebay. The boxes I see are usually in rough shape, but this one looks like brand new and was only $2.00! Couldn't say no to that.

This is somewhat wider than the copy I had previously posted although the other does show a smidge more image on the bottom.

Many of the images are missing from the main VHS artwork gallery.

Anyone here own the UK VHS' for '43 Phantom of the Opera and The Mummy's Hand and would be willing to post nice scans/views of the front covers???
