Check Out The New Universal Lifesize Frankenstein Bust for $450&500

This doesn't have anything to do DIRECTLY with the Franky head, but just some observations on some other new Factory products. I am a big Beatles fan (in fact, me and my fiance are having a Yellow Submarine themed wedding in September) and I just go their new Yellow Submarine "Premium Motion Figures" which are basically bobble heads, but only 1 have a head which bobbles. At first glance they were pretty nice, but the more I looked at them the more something irked me about them. Then I started to notice things like the submarine only have 3 periscopes (there should be 4), and on the Dreaded Flying Glove they made his striped base square when it has always seemed more round (arm shaped!), and all the bases on them have the Sea of Holes, but they never bothered to paint any of the holes black. None of these should be big deals, but what bugs me about them is that they are all things that could have been discovered by a 2 second Google search, let alone if they bothered to actually WATCH the movie. Albeit, in comparison to Franky here, they were only about $15 a pop, but none the less, is it really that hard to get something accurate? The majority of people buying these pieces are most likely pretty big fans of the film, and like myself are going to notice details with it (just like a lot of us on here notice details about monster stuff!). S little research goes a long way, and it just seems like Factory isn't really big on doing much research for some reason. Maybe it's just me, but it seems that if a company in the late '90s doing $10 toys can get it right, it can't be THAT hard to do.

I hear they're gonna do polystone replicas of Elvis' fried banana sandwich.

[creaturerevenge]

It's going to be $600, the wrong kind of bread, and the banana is gonna light up! But act now because they are only making 500 of them!!!

Do yourself a favor and shell out the few extra bucks for the scratch-n-sniff version.

Yeah, that's me and the Beatles. Mostly yawnworthy, but I like a few cuts.

Funny, the Olympics balloons of the sub only have 3 too...

[aura of foreboding]

It's really odd.  There seems to be a trend to only put 3 on 3D physical representations, while the 2D versions always have 4.  I wonder if it just looks funny and that is why they leave the fourth off?
