My target had Wizard of Oz, Tootie, Alice, Fonzie, Norm, and all the others that no one wants! No monsters.

What in the world.... Uhura looks like she is M.O.D.O.K.'s cousin, and Kirk looks....I don't have the words. Is it terrible paint on Kirk, or what? I like the gorn though...he's shiny,lol.

At my Target there are so many Samantha's from Bewitched they don't have room for other figures!

I've been periodically checking Target's website looking for a certain Ape-Footed Werewolf and I noticed Army Boots Frankie was listed briefly a couple of days ago and quickly disappeared...yet again. Target's way of doing business is a farce. I know we've belabored the point ad nauseum but it still amazes me just how clueless Off-Target really is.

A 20 mile drive to get a Christmas decoration landed me near a Target, so I went in.  Behold!  The MEGO Frankenstein!  Finally got this thing...  And, yeah, I must confess I really dig this color outfit.  It's so... nostalgic and beats the Universal green any day.  Now to find the Face of the Screaming Werewolf... hopefully online.

How many did they have?  Any Draculas?

They had two.  One had a busted card.  No Draculas, so I am glad to have snagged him online.

I walked into a local Target looking for a werewolf and found two Dracula figures. How those popped up I'll never know but I grabbed them for my friends that missed them.

That is strange for sure. I wonder if they're pushing extra stock? I'm at my local store a couple of times a week and haven't seen anything new in a few weeks. Time to keep checking for Drac and Wolf.

Does anybody know if the male AND female new Mego's have arms and legs that are compatible with  the EMCE versions? I've got a Bride with two left legs and a recent deal on a nice but broken-armed Mummy.

They are close, but not identical. To be completely candid.... I prefer the Emce bodies to the new Megos. I bought a Lugosi Mego for the express purpose of stealing the clothes for a Carradine Dracula mego size I am working on. That gave me the opportunity to decide which body to use for Long John, as I had an Emce handy. The Emce wins. The Lugosi will be another project I am cooking up in my lab.

Emce is better in my opinion....look for a loose one to fix your boogered up one.

I like the EMCE guys a lot... but I may splurge on a cheap Mego to see how well I can finagle the Bride's leg. Luckily the Mummy's bandages keep his arm in place with a little sticky-tack so I can be more patient on that end. We'll see, I guess.

How are you gonna make a Carradine head? That sounds so cool!

Anton Phibes

I don't have to make it, just an adapter for it. Jeff Yagher sculpted a replacement head for the Aurora Dracula. A little paint, a neck peg and voila.
