              Universal Studio Screamers - Vinyl Figures - Series 1 - 2021


I don't see any mention of how tall they are.  People who have opened these and are selling specified figures are asking $100 for the Creature.

I saw a photo of one in somebody's hand. They look like about 4 inches.

The Universal online catalog Prices:



I guess the scalpers are only asking double the usual price for most of these figures.  (Go figure.)

Except the Creature, which is 5 times as much!

For these sorts of things I kinda understanding caving and paying the scalpers. Who knows now many unopened figures you'd have to buy at retail to get the one you want.

I could buy 6 of them for what they are asking for the Creature. As a matter of fact, I think that is just what I'm going to do! Sell the others for $20 ea. and get my Creature for $20 .  :)

I bought a Frank for $25.00.  Worth it to me not to have to open all those boxes and try to sell the extras.  (Who the hell is "Chance"?)

That's one strategy. Kinda depends on just how rare the Creature is though. There are six different figures, and if they're saying Creature is limited edition on top of that, I'm going to guess the odds of getting one are much less than 1/6.

Besides Frankenstein, Chucky and Gillman, most of them are Halloween Horror Nights "Icons", which are essentially mascots for it. Different years they have different ones, so since this is the 30th anniversary of them having Halloween Horror Nights, it looks like it's a commemorative sort of thing. So these are two of them, Jack and Chance:

Absolutely not my thing, but when Masters of The Universe did their blind box thing you could find the serial numbers for each one online and then know what you were getting in the store.   I managed to snag an exclusive that way at retail.   Check the bottom of the box, if there's a number try putting it online and you'll get the master list of the others too.  It's a long shot but it's possible.
