Just got home from Universal. Those machines are awesome! Got 2 the first day there (Frank and Pumpkin)
Went back the next day to get more for some Christmas presents. Frank on  Day 1 they were a lighter green, day 2 a dark green. So of course we had to get 1 on day 3! It is a little in between  the 2 greens! Haha pumpkin was orange.
Hopefully they move these machines into the Monster Cafe when it reopens. Such a great souvenir for $6 bucks!
Everybody needs to believe in something , I believe I'll have another beer!

You need to get one in each different colour though!

Collecting! It's what I do!

I just added another standing Frank today.  It is not quite like from the others.  See if you can spot the difference:




Hint:  It is not the fact that the name Frankenstein does not appear on the base.

Don't see it?  How about now?

That's right campers, someone has made a new mold and these are currently on sale as a Halloween item.


Can't make to Chicago?  eBay seller tunataim sold me mine.  Check his listings https://tinyurl.com/395eak9c for any future offerings.

Thanks for the heads up and seller info, mine is on the way. Orange MiniFrank will soon stand by his two taller green brothers. I don't have a rainbow of waxy frank options like you do.

My buddy is moving to Florida and while he was there during Oct. finalizing his housing he managed to get me a green pumpkin with a happy face and a grayish purple frankenstein head coin bank from Universal Studios,  both have Universal Studios imprinted around the back of the base in raised letters. The pumpkin is lacking the Halloween Horror Nights lettering on the front of my scary face orange pumpkin from a previous year.

Now that a new mold has been made, look for future issues in additional colors for following Halloweens.  It has become a tradition to have the Mold-A-Rama machines at a couple zoos every year.

I like the fact that they are smaller and easily distinguished from the vintage toys.

It's Back!


FRANKENSTEIN - Mold-A-Rama - Standing Frankenstein - 5⅜ in. - Green - Brookfield Zoo - Made 2022

The Zoo has brought back the smaller Moldy again this year.  Unlike last year's Orange model, this one is Green.


Here is a glimpse of the machine being used at the Zoo:

In case you live too far from the zoo and want to save the admission price, here is a reliable source for a figure:

The seller just sells these on eBay to defray the cost of his annual zoo pass.  I've dealt with him before.  Nice guy.

Oh, that would be cool. 

If only someone would make Mold-A-Rama molds for all the Universal Monsters - and install machines at Universal Studios!

Sorry for the lousy picture.  The only real way to capture detail is by photographing them individually so lighting can be adjusted for each color - but I wanted to show them side-by-side.

BRIDE - Figure - Mold-A-Rama - Universal Studios - Florida theme park, 2023

This was obviously introduced for the 2023 Halloween Horror Nights, but it is already showing up on eBay.

By-the-way, Universal has raised the price of their Mold-A-Rama figures to $8.00 this year.
