Kaustic Plastik opens the floodgates

Yeah, I think I am passing on 90% of what they offer. 1. The stuff is too expensive, 2. I have oodles of monster stuff, and 3. I like being able to pay my bills, eat food, and stay out of unnecessary debt.

Wolfman, Vincent Price or Psycho might get me off my wallet. Maybe not even those three though. I am becoming very frugal and selective in my mid 50's.

I'm sure this is concept art, but the Monsters bolts are too big. And the Bride likeness is way off.

There is always some minor glaring flaw with these figures that kills them for me. Dracula collar esp. For the price they should be perfect.

Looks expensive!

I am extremely selective these days, but he is very purdy. Unfortunately he needs his own bedrooom.

I love Frankenstein-- bolts are way too big as pointed out, but this and The Mummy might get me to bite.

Yeah.

I've gotten very frugal regarding new stuff (aka cheap

). If I drop a lot of $$$ it's usually on something vintage, and even then I beware stupid prices. Some of the prices on so-called "high end" new items are borderline insulting. Hard to believe some people are actually going into debt for it. Financially problematic down the road.

I got their Lugosi and the coffin. I got their exclusive sets (individually boxed) for Horror of Dracula. Only because I was able to wrangle a deal. I don't think I am going to even try for Phantom, London After Midnight, or even (can't believe I am saying this) the three Universal Monsters shown in the banner. Stuff is too pricey these days.

Frank looks great, but needs a second head -- just like they did with Bela (and maybe others but I don't own them).
