Just bought this on eBay!    Topps Foldees "Mixups" #4 (of 10). 1962

Only seem to see them about once a decade. It was in such good condition and cheaper ($20) than I would have expected. Another one off the Creature cards list!

Received my Big Creature Nik figure (6 1/4" tall).

I'm pleasantly surprised by this figure. The eBay listing said "3D printed" so I expected a heavy piece with lots of rough edges and unnecessary lines but it's actually hollow and has a much smaller amount of "roughness" than other 3D printed pieces I've bought. It's sturdy, stands well, and displays well. It reminds me of a blow mold. The color looks green in the pics but is actually more of a greenish turquoise which looks pretty cool. It had "Make Offer" and the seller accepted my offer of $26 plus cheap shipping.

I'm not much into most custom 3D printed pieces but I like this one. It's an homage to the '60s Monster Niks which never made the Creature. I also like that it's twice as tall as the original Niks which gives it kind of a Big Frankie vibe next to the little guys.

The latest S7 Creature came today. The other day I got that Foldees card. Those things are tiny! (1.5 x 2.5)

Picked up a Secrets of Haunted House 5 with the nifty Wrightson cover. Also, I've been purchasing the reissued Pirates of the Caribbean models just for fun.

Finally got the TOTS action figures of Shock Monster and Beast of Blood.





Justin Mabry and Alexander Ray did a great job on these. They're pretty impressive in person. The backer cards are large (12" X 9 1/2") and are designed nicely. Collector-friendly packaging would have been better, but the blister cards aren't bad.

Shock Monster looks cool. I especially like the big monstrous hands. Blue hair would have been better, but the black is okay. Great to get a Shock Monster figure to go with the mask and candy pail.

Beast of Blood is very well done. Some green highlights for the chlorophyll poisoned blood would have been welcomed but it's still a good figure. The axe is a good accessory reminiscent of the fight on the boat. I compared this one with my Distinctive Dummies Beast of Blood and I think I like the TOTS version a little better.

So well worth the 40 bucks each. Took 2 years but I guess it was worth the wait.

Is that dirt at the top of the "Beast" card printed on, or is it real dirt?

It's printed on. The cards are new and in good condition.

Mold-A-Rama Standing Frankenstein showed up today.



Since I'll probably only be getting one of these the Kelly Green is the best color imo. Made a little niche for him next to my Monster Anchor-Hocking Glasses so he's in good company.

Thanks to MFS for the heads-up on the fair deal.

Picked this guy up over the weekend. Can you guys help me ID this piece? I swear its a wolfman/werewolf bust, but I have no idea. Got him at an antique store on the cheap...

THANKS!

Can't really make it out because of the watermarks on the photos -- looks like Lugosi's Ygor to me.  AP usually means Artist Proof.

[scarey1scd]

Yeah I dont know how to get rid of the watermark...
Good call though, never thought of Ygor, or possibly even Island Of Lost Souls?

Appreciate that!

The NECA hunting has been pretty poor this season, still looking for the new wave of Toony Terrors monsters after spotting a creature at Wal Mart covered on paint scuffs.

Today I finally found a nice Ben Cooper Michael Myers to replace my one with a damaged box and a Jungle Hunter Predator!  Only one from that wave they had.  Hopefully I can get a Pee Wee or an ALF.

Finally got the new Mondo Creature. That was a long wait!
