Does anyone have info on this guy?   He's got a Universal City copywright.    Was he a park item?

Found an old for sale photo, but all they said was 5", Hong Kong and Universal City Studios Inc.

Ok Mike..you're gonna hate this. 😉     Its from 79-ish and they apparently made a Creature also.

I'm pretty sure I've seen it and I wouldn't call it The Creature.  ;D

That would be VERY surprising to me. Any images?

Sadly no.  Just a person who recalls buying both at a toy store around 79.   They still have the Frankenstein.

I see them on eBay, every once in a while. It's the typical fishman Creature wannabe, all skinny and stretched out like that Frankenstein.

Except none of those knock offs have ever carried a Universal copyright and, while I saw them at retail plenty of times over the years including when mine was bought for me, that Frankenstein's Monster was never part of the assortment.

I doubt the creature I'm thinking of had a UM c., so maybe it's not the same one.

Here's a couple of other tall skinny Frankies.
