New Universal Monsters Bend-Ems at Walgreen's

[Blue Fang]

I looked at my walgreens and only found the Batman bend-ems like others

On the bright side I found the new imported Shokugan Godzilla figures, so I did not leave empty handed

Went to 3 Walgreens today. No Universal in sight. I found the Batman at one and the other 2 only had the Herman Munster and Addams Family Pop figures. No Dracula POP figure. Tons of Nightmare Before Christmas Stuff. Not a fan of that movie. Never could get all the way through it. Tried 3 times.

I finally found a set at the third Walgreen's I visited. While the Creature is very cool looking, the remaining monsters are mediocre to poor representations. Also, I would have liked to have seen a Mummy figure.

The Creature looks like an amalgamation of itself and the Incredible HULK

So what's the downside?

I will pass on purchasing that figure.

Anybody who sees a Creature and doesn't want it, I'm looking!

They've probably been there and gone!

Hey guys I thought I might help some of you out.Maybe ? I mean if this is information is considered helpful to you? I called up my nearest walgreens and those scalpers actually helped for once, in terms of showing the backs of the carded figures which showed me the bar code . I asked the walgreens person on the phone and told them I had the bar code for them and they used that to look up if they had it in stock.They didn't but they were able to look up which ones did.

When I went out to the store the bend ems were not out yet but in the back in storage still for some reason . I showed them a picture of the bar code and they used the bar code number to get me two creature from the black lagoon bend ems .I was so happy .I have one for display and one for playing with!

Bar code number on back of items is
81000920038 for the creature
81000920036  for Dracula
81000920037 for wolfman
81000920039 for frankenstein


or look up a ebay listing and if it shows the back of the card of the item use that as a picture reference if they need one
use that and they should easily be able to look up the item for you guys and if they say its at one location and its not out front tell them the barcode and show them a picture of the item and it's probably in the back in storage

Ps.I think why none of you are finding them yet is that they havent been released out on the trade floor in a lot of locations
PS.PS. Happy hunting you guys ! The scalpers can't always win.

Thanks ,been reading these forums for a couple years on and off and been too shy to register or post . Also I have only been collecting for 10 years creature from black lagoon items . I just wanted to help out cause those ebay people were really irking me ! These forums helped me find out where they were selling the bend ems. So I thought I might at least try to help if I could. Even if it might be info people probably already know.
