      @Ryan Ward That's right! Yes I'd read that somewhere and I think he missed a huge opportunity in his career that he always kinda regretted but it just wasn't meant to be. He did get to play The Monster in Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman as you'd probably know, and gave us the infamous slow, lumbering walk with arms outstretched, which itself became iconic. Karloff was the best choice for The Monster though easily don't you think?!?

    Stop it Robo! There's still no news on UK release date for the colour version of this figure, or any of the recent Father's Day NECA releases, so why'd you have to torment me with an awesome review?! I swear, if it doesn't get a release by October here, maybe I'll take a leaf out of his book and go on a rampage in the European countryside to vent my frustrations.
    Still as a HUGE classic monster movies fan I love the look of this figure, the colours are what sold me on it since most other versions overdo the green, the Mezco colour is what most figures out there have, here it looks so much more natural.
    The heads I appreciate they went so specific, I think the final one you showed is meant to be the moment when he scares Frankenstein's wife.
    This and the Wolfman are must haves since I never had a classic Wolfman in this scale, it'll be hard to top the Select Creature from the Black Lagoon though, if they ever get around to that.

  • @Cobralalalala
    @Cobralalalala 3 года назад

    Oh, that is gorgeous! I think I might have to get both versions so I can display at least two of the scenes. I'd also love a "illustrated" figure like we got from King Kong, and different figures from Bride and Son. Ooh! And maybe a Lugosi monster from Vs The Wolfman!
    Either way, I'm going to get whatever NECA gives us. I just hope they go beyond the core 6 or 7 that we always get. Also, I wonder what's going on with the Hammer license they were announced to have gotten. I have the Mego, but I need a higher end Christopher Lee Dracula!
