Mike, did Jakks ever do a prototype of the Creature figure?

Yep.

Makes you wonder why no release.

I know! Just one of those business type decisions, I guess?

Yeah., poor Creach never got the love that Frankie, Mummy and Wolfman do.

That Jakks Creech is better than the other three Jakks figures combined.

I don't know, I'd have to see Dracuwolfenstein before making that call.  ;)

Here are my most recent gets in the toy category. A Gigantic Frankenstein, A Sideshow glow in the dark Frankenstein and Mummy and a Jakks Pacific B&W Bride of Frankenstein figure. Thanks to Mord for educating me on the glow figures. I'll keep my eye out for the Sideshow glow in the dark Wolfman and I'd like to get the color version of the Jakks Bride of Frankenstein as well. (forgive the amateur photography)



WOW..What a great haul...It's like Monster Christmas. Also, your photography is great. In fact, one thing I first noticed in your pics, was the quality. The pic you posted of the 3 masks on the table last month was very clean and crisp. It was not grainy at all. To capture all the detail though, don't use a flash.

 That's a very nice little quartet you found, Glenn. I'm already saving money for our "Son Of Monsterpalooza" event in September. I usually spend at least $500 at those shows. I hope your piggy bank's getting fat by then.

Thanks a lot guys! A lot of the fun in this is being able to share it with you guys. I was mainly a mask guy for awhile now but you guys got me back into the other monster collectables and I'm having a lot of fun with it. Thanks for the compliment and tip on photography Horror Man. That means a lot coming from you. It's just my cell phone set on auto so the dark lighting prompted the flash. In this case it helped because the shrink wrap on Big Frankie was so reflective that without the flash all you could see was my reflection on him. I have some more masks on the way so I'll post that when they show up. If I don't watch it I won't have any money left to spend at "Son of".  ;)  Looking forward to it Mord.

You know, I have been seeing some really great pics with cell phones. I do not have a smart phone. I feel like I am the only person left who has not upgraded. For now, I will stick to my digital camera and a lot of editing. ;D

Very nice! I love me some Mummy action! Reminds me of  the Kenner Karloff Mummy but much improved. But that's to be expected from Sideshow. And don't beat yourself up about the smart phone. I've only had mine for about a year. I will say this, now that I have one I'm not sure how I did without one.  :)

Nice Glenn! I did recently win this ebay auction:



Ended up paying a bit too much for it though.  Got an extra Glow Frank if anyone wants to trade for it.

Super nice Count! I still need a Wolfman. I paid $21.00 each for mine including shipping.

Mord

 Ok, thm, how much did you spend on the SS Mummy? That's a beautiful piece (along with their Ardeth Bey), and one of their rarest 12"ers.
