NECA HAS OBTAINED UNIVERSAL MONSTERS!!!!

[aura of foreboding]

Nabbed two Frankensteins at... TARGET!  Out of town store, wealthy area.  No Walmarts around me ever got them.  So go to Target if you haven't found one yet.

Saw some Frankensteins at Target the other day. And in LA too! They're out there, folks! Go get em!

A couple things from the NECA Twitter... Randy has said that the B/W Frankenstein should be hitting stores soon and also he mentioned that there WILL be a B/W Wolfman but doesn't know exactly when.

Great news. Hitting Targets' today.

[Doh!]

Hmm... I wish he'd said we're "definitely" getting a b&w Wolfie instead of "probably"...

[MonsterBaker666]

Likely will depend on sales of the B&W Frankenstein figure.

Neca may have the Frankenstein's monster. But I sure don't.

[MonsterBaker666]

NECAonline.com says that the color Frankenstein figure ships to retailers on August 2nd.  MaCready ships the same day.

No word yet as to the shipping date of the B&W version of Frankie. 

[Doh!]

BBTS still has B&W Frank listed as shipping in July. Tick-tock, people!!

[MonsterBaker666]

Yep.  They get that info from the manufacturer (NECA) and NECA hasn't updated the ship date yet.  My thought - sometime in August.  Likely focusing on getting the color version out first to all the retailers, then they move on to getting the B&W version out, since it will likely not sell as well as the color version.  Gotta go for the big bucks first.

Found a color Monster at Target! This is fantastic! I'd been keen on a Glenn Strange version too! I so, so, so hope we get a great looking Lugosi Dracula.

Is that fire an acc.?

Nope.

[Mike Scott]

Nope.

Would have been a cool one!

If anyone is still searching for the Frankenstein monster, try this link for Target. It only showed 1 location near me, but they had 4 in stock when I got there so it definitely works
