This weekend features a special alive and werid horror haul featuring Frankenstein merch, plus books and novels--several of which we've never heard of before!

This Figura Obscura Frankenstein's Monster from Four Horseman features unique box art that holds the 7" figure which includes a wealth of accessories including a lab table, multiple heads and other items. This is the second version of the figure, with a more green-ish tint that is most commonly associated with the Frankenstein monster--with a head that has a more Karloff-inspired look. Boris Karloff, however, this figure is not. The first release was more aligned with the Mary Shelley version that had long hair and a yellow-tinted skin.


More Frankenstein! This monsters is from NECA and is a nod to the popular 1997 Burger King Kid's Club toys. This 8" version came in a Loot Crate box subscription several years back. Packaged like the BK versions, which included a glow-in-the-dark sticker, but didn't include the lab table as seen in the kid's toy. The BK monsters, considered by some to be the best 'happy meal' toys of all time, were resurrected multiple times. Two years after the BK versions hit, the west coast burger chain Jack in the Box featured figures similar to the BK line. NECA itself collected all four monsters--Frankenstein, Dracula, Wolf Man and the Creature from the Black Lagoon--in a highly-collectible massive package that also included Dracula's coffin.


Now to the weird part--this made-from-wood racer driven by Frankenstein's monster! A custom work believed to be from a local artist, the mean drag racer is faster than lightning and contains more wood than that old windmill from the first Karloff movie!





We even have some books to show in this haul! No Frankenstein, but there's great rep from the best decade for books (for us, at least)! Eerie, Indiana and the The Outer Limits--both TV shows from 90s. The Incredible Hulk book is from Pocket Books, 1979 and the second in the series. The Flintstones "Mystery of Mammoth Mansion" brings us back to Bedrock, but the book hails from 1978. The real treat here may be The Addams Family book, which featured the ooky-kooky family in this 1965 tie-in novel.
