New addition to my Black and White Universal Monster collection, Professor Burke, not strictly, all black and white, but near as damn it
Also, his freshly 3D printed movie logo, ready for the shelf.
Does anyone know if an updated Universal Monsters checklist has been released by NECA?
I had a figure on the last one, that seems to have disappeared, just want to check if it's still got a chance!
As well as collecting figures, I have a deep affection, relating to my days as a kid, growing up, being spoilt with wonderful Saturday morning cartoons.
Original Scooby -Doo, currently collecting the new waves as they are released, not through Mafex however!
But, I've also been a huge fan of the Wacky Races, Mafex/Medicom released The Mean Machine last year, does anyone know if they intend to expand the line,or is this a one off?
Thx...
It was only right that Ash made the horror shelf.
The Evil Dead, Ash, a nice little pick-up, box a little battered but a great figure, all the same.
The box itself is awesome, the 3D Lenticular Lens, hits the mark, the figure itself, absolutely smashes Bruce Campbell's likeness.
Really pleased to add Vincent Price, to my Black and White Universal Monster collection.
This is definitely, my favourite line of figures.
​
Now, I know, many people hate A.I., each for their own reasons, I print, self produced 3d logos, make and paint models, make custom figure bases etc...
But I was giving these guys a clean, and just had the urge to put them in their proper surroundings.
Anyway, this was what I came up with, in A.I.
Just a bit of fun..
Would be nice to get an update...on the Universal Monster list.
Being a huge Universal Monster fan, I was wondering if NECA would ever release a Lon Chaney, Hunchback of Notre Dame?
A few months ago, I proclaimed that my Marvel figure collecting had come to an end, the shelves were loaded.
But, stupidly,for no reason, today, I entered our local Zing store, immediately I glanced and my eyes saw "OWL", well, it drew me to him, and eventually came home with me.
🙄🤣🤣
I wouldn't call him a grail, but he was a figure I'd like to have on the shelf, if I ever came across him.
Jungle Disguise Dutch, happy to have him.
Finally, found three Nightmare Demons and a reasonable price.
All the pieces in their place.
In my previous post about Lon Chaney, Phantom of the Opera figure, I mentioned the Masque of the Red Death (B&W), happily, he's now secured on Pre-order, another classic Universal Monster in black and white.
It always gives me great satisfaction adding a figure to the collection, but there's something special about the Universal Monster Black and White line.
I've added The Phantom, in readiness to swap head and hands, which are an added extract accessory in the Black and White Masque of the Red Death version.
I'll be able to stand them side by side on the shelf.
The Phantom of the Opera had 3 pre-screenings in 1925, before the official release date. No colour was used in those 3 screenings.
So, on a technicality, the Masque of the Red Death (black and white) preceded the Red version.
