NECA HAS OBTAINED UNIVERSAL MONSTERS!!!!

[YoungestMonsterKid]

The new checklist dropped today. No new entries, just paint variants.

I assumed NECA new better than to do a black and white variant for the Metaluna Mutant. Guess I was wrong.

That's what I thought when Sideshow did it.

It's not a case of knowing better, they're just emulating Sideshow, Yanoman, Diamond Select, etc, and wisely amortizing molds. Hopefully they'll make a glow version!

Have they ever done a monster who actually glowed in his/her/its movie (The Invisible Ray, Man Made Monster, etc.)?

No, NECA hasn't gone very deep in the roster. I think someone made a limited edition vinyl "toy" of the Made Made Monster. I looked into it via the Chaney estate, but none of that came to pass. I keep thinking Amok Time / Monster might do that one in particular.

I wonder if it glowed? Missed opportunity, if it didn't.

I'm not finding it in my search and now I'm thinking I've confused it with the James Arness Thing from Another World vinyl figure that, yep, glows in the dark.

I don't remember him "glowing", even when he got volted.

It's from HOP Toys and... I think they just wanted to make what they considered a cool toy. There's a full glow and a just-head-and-hands glow version.

Oh, I remember seeing that one.

[Monsters For Sale]

The White Castle figures also were G-I-T-D.

[Monsters For Sale]

Sideshow did their figure in glow versions, too.

But The Creature never made it to production.
