This example came from the minor find you referred to earlier.  I think the seller had three blacks total.

I think the seller had about the same number of Purple and a few more Dark Blue.  But many of the Blue were badly formed and had crack-like faults and an uneven surface.

Nice find!

Thank you.  Was happy to snag it for about $75.  I've wanted one forever, but wasn't willing to pay the $200 plus they were trading for over the last few years.

No kidding!

Most of mine were gotten years ago and from auctions badly listed.  (I think the lowest I paid was $28.00.)

In today's market, you got a really good deal!

It's been a bit more than just last week, but I have had a streak of luck with Mold-A-Rama Standing Frankensteins.


I recently went from this:

Huh!? What's going on here? You need an orange one and a white one.

My thinking exactly!

My dream is to get an Orange, White and Grey.  The Orange goes between the Red and Yellow, the Pink moves to the other side of the Red and the White goes after the Pink.  Then I would put the Grey after the White - since it belongs between the White and Black.

I know the Grey exists.  Not so sure about the Orange and White.)

That would put them all in order by the wavelength of colors. Ultraviolet to infrared.

(I can dream.)

Of course! I've been arranging colours that way ever since I got my first box of eight Peacock Crayons in kindergarten.

Only on the UMA can you find people who's dream is to acquire an Orange, White and Grey plastic Frankenstein. You gotta love it!   ;) ;D

Yes. On this board we dare to dream.

Flower! Don't be sneaking into my basement to play with my toys! I'm watching for ya now! You are a special woman among all womenzes! For sure! And sneaky too!

Also gotta say that those Frankensteins are really simple and cool. My first thought was that molding and popping out all sorts of color variations of those Frankys would be a snap. But nobody would dare do that "reproduction" thing of a vintage collectible....now would they? Ha!
