I picked up an ornament of the Hatbox Ghost at Disneyland. It's pretty much exactly 3.75" scale. They also had a Madame Leota ornament in the sameish scale that had a light up bulb inside. Anyway, these weren't cheap ($20ish) and are only available in the park. Also, the eyes glow in the dark.



I was at Disney World yesterday and saw those two at Memento Mori, and they also had the Hatchet Bride to go add to the ensemble. 

But what really grabbed me was the Haunted Mansion picture disc record (image from eBay), the Haunted Mansion CD, and a book about Imagineering the Mansion that looked awesome with lots of original concepts.  (I restrained myself from buying anything, but while looking for an image to post, found the book on Amazon new for $12.)

Haven't really bought anything lately, (excluding Transformers) but I've seen some cool stuff around:

So it looks like the beloved Fright Factory is reincarnated for 2018 - now with absolutely NO HEAT! (Personally I think 3rd degree burns are an important teaching tool).





If you're near an Ikea and have a little Monster Kid, these Vampire and Mummy plushes might float your boat:



Finally, I was at Disney World this weekend and saw a few cool things:

Mens Room door in the outside Mexican Restaurant at Epcot



Tower of Terror concept model on display at Hollywood Studios (click to enlarge)



And finally, Cyborg Lincoln is the stuff of nightmares! From the 1964/65 World's Fair, also on display at Hollywood Studios.
The Great Robot Emancipator shall enslave all humans! (click to enlarge)


Stay sick. Turn blue. Drop dead.

Finally got these two 3¾" Funko Reaction Frankensteins.







I had bought a single, loose Blue direct from China, but it was filled with bubble and looked frothy inside with very uneven color.  I guess it was a factory reject.  This one will be a huge improvement.

This was my first chance to get a single loose Green.  I knew someone would break up a set eventually.

Collecting just one monster can be challenging, sometimes.

Picked up this 4" Frankenstein bust.  Fan made, it is cast in resin and extremely light.







Not a world-beater, but I kinda like its simplicity.  Besides, it was listed with something else that I was sure I could sell to recoup my full purchase price.  Hard to pass up free items.

It looks better than some of the stuff Universal has put out in the past!

And lastly, the Camp Crystal Lake accessory pack.



How are you liking the accessory pack?  I haven't opened mine.  I only have the part 6 Jason currently, but he's waiting for his rock!

Finally picked up Herman and repainted him. Maybe down the line I'll get him a black suit, tried dying it but it wouldn't take. Pics are not as good as in person.

Nice! Looks just like him!  :)

I usually don't buy unlicensed stuff, but I thought this was pretty cool. It's a postcard sized 3D lenticular photo of the Aurora model kit on a little set. Similar to a Frankenstein one that was made in the '60s. It has good depth and the Creature stands forward of the surface. Somebody (maybe the same guy?) made a similar (or identical?) one of these that was like 2 ft. tall. Last time I saw one on eBay (a long time ago) it was very expensive! This was only $10. The guy has several more, if you want one.
