So, a number of days ago, I told you about the AHI Frankenstein Monster figure... well, here's the Mego Frankenstein! You can see how they tried to make it generic, yet still recognizeable to kids as the Monster.
The Mego Mad Monsters were my faveourite toys as a kid, acouple of years ago I bought myself the repro versions which were pretty true to the originals. As a Frank fan, please check out a version of the Monster I have painted and posted to my blog: http://pinhead45.blogspot.com/ go to the Bass Monster post. Leave me a comment and let me know what you think. I'll be adding your blog to my list of recommendations at Pinhead45.
The Blog of Frankenstein is your daily destination for vintage Frankenstein-related goodies, including posters, lobby cards, stills, toys, and other coolness! And yes, I know that Frankenstein was the doctor, and not the monster... but the term has become such common use thanks to toys and the like over the years that I don't have a problem sometimes using "Frankenstein" to refer to the monster.
I have been a Navy journalist, word processor, graphic designer, medical assisting student, cook, and truck driver, and am currently an eBay seller as well as an employee at a big retail store. I have been and always will be into comics, sf, tv, cartoons, monsters, oldies rock, and lots of other stuff.
