What was your 1st monster toy?

Aurora glow kit of Dracula and the Phantom I know I had. I'm sure I had jigglers and other trinkits.

Christmas 1961 Great Garloo; I remember waking up on Christmas Eve and hearing my Dad out in the living room playing with it. I could hear the whirr of the electric motors and wondering what was going on out by the Christmas Tree.

My first "real" monster toy was the Aurora Frankenstein, purchased at Disneyland at Tinkerbell's Toy Shop in Fantasyland. When ever I'm at Disneyland I make a pilgrimage to that toy shop and visit the counter where they had a huge stack of those great kits.

Growing up in Rochester N.Y., my fondest memory of my first monster toy was, a
AHI Frankenstein or couple of Aurora Monster kits. But, I can not recall which came first?
I do remember going to the Midtown mall in Rochester and my Mother and Grandmother
buying me the AHI Franky. That was a great memory as a child. I would watch Chiller Theatre
with my parents and play with my Monster toys. Frankenstein's Monster was always my
favorite too.

A battery powered tin robot (1960's, very cool, wish I still had it).
Plastic dinosaurs
Jigglers
Dark Shadows trading cards
Palmer monsters (still have Gorgo, Frankenstein & Kong, minus Fay Wray)

Not sure if it was my first but its gotta be close. I had Shrunken Heads hanging on every doorknob in the house.

Does anyone have any shrunken heads they made with this kit?

I made some as a kid, but I no longer have any. The memories remain though. They turned out pretty darn cool. The kit works just as advertised.

I have the kit...brand new and never used.  My son and I WANT to shrink heads...but honestly have just never had the time.
(and the required light bulb...all we have now are the energy efficient flourecent bulbs!)

WE WILL shrink some heads...no doubt.  And I'll post pics here.

First Monster toy was probably an Aurora Wolf Man. OR the Mego Mad Monster Frankenstein.
They blur together so I'm not sure which came first for me.

[Roback]

I've got a factory sealed set too which is the only reason I haven't shrunk down any heads as an adult. I gotta find me an opened set so I can resume my shrinking head ways.

[Scary Terry]

Had to be one of the Aurora monster kits for me -- but I don't recall which was first.  I know my first kit was the Aurora Superman -- and the monsters followed.
