Giant Hamilton Gifts Incredible Hulk figure from 1991. Awesome figure based on the savage Hulk look from the 60's.

I saw the new Ghost Castle game on the clearance aisle at Wal-Mart and couldn't resist. Ghost Castle is the latest incarnation of the classic Which Witch? board game from 1970.


Here's a review someone posted on YouTube.

That HULK totally reminds me of the 1990  Toy Biz HULK.  Very cool

Thanks. It definitely has some similarities. However, I am not a fan of that 90 toy biz Hulk. The legs are too thin, head is too big and the body is off. However, the Venom that came out at the same time is really awesome. I bought the Venom around the time it came out. I still have it in the original packaging. It was one of the first things that I collected.

Hi all,
I'm a brand new member so I hope I'm doing this right!  Here are some pictures of the vintage side of my collection, almost all things I've picked up in the last year. (I'm about 8hrs from home at school, and I rotate my pieces out over breaks).  If anyone is curious or would like better pictures, I would be happy to oblige, I just didn't want to inundate everyone with 100 pictures. Haha
We have an awesome 1986 Tendril from the Inhumanoids series (kind of has that Cthulhu vibe...), an OG '80s Star Wars Rancor (always dug this guy) with a Hong Kong prisoner jiggler in his mouth, some other rubber uglies, a Shogun Godzilla I picked up for $10, three Rat Fink models (I'm a huge Fink/Roth junkie), three shrunken heads (two are those cool blow molded ones in their baggies), two Zoo-Piks monster stir rods, some skeleton pocket peekers, a complete Mattel Fright Factory, and a few other smalls.


Also a complete Collegeville Skeleton costume (probably the late '50s? It seems like an older style that I've seen) and an also complete never opened 1959 Renwal Visible Man model. (Not really "monster" related, but there's bones and guts and that has to count for something!)


Finally (I think) a mostly complete Motorized Monster Maker kit I snagged for $25! I love Thingmakers and Creepy Crawlers, and this kit is just amazing!

Nice stuff Speedier - some classic items in your collection. And welcome.

HorrorHunter. I've never seen that game, but I'm a sucker for 3D board games with nice graphics.

[SpeedierThantheGrave]

Thanks! I'm really excited to join the board! I'm one of those rockabilly types, so the '50s/'60s stuff really appeals to me...
I'm looking for a "Weekly Finds" thread in the Modern Toys section to share my newer stuff too, but don't see one, unless it's really buried. Would it be appropriate to post them here too? I don't want to wreck up the place. Haha

There's a "Latest Gets" for your recent purchases. http://www.universalmonsterarmy.com/forum/index.php?topic=21580.0

There's also "Show Your Monster Rooms" for showing off your collections, old and new. Doesn't have to b a whole room, either. http://www.universalmonsterarmy.com/forum/index.php?topic=106.0

The line on the Monster Maker box should have been "They Walk, And Do . . .Things!!"

[SpeedierThantheGrave]

Ok cool thanks Mike Scott! I'll post some there. And yes, that's a way better tag line!

Plus, you can pretend he's The Invisible Man either comin' or goin'.

I built mine, guts and all - in 1959.  I was either 12 or 13.  (I probably got it for my birthday.)

I remember mixing the paints to get just the right color for the liver.
