[@BrianVanNostrand-tr9jr]

"The Creature rises dripping with rage!" - My new favorite quote from a commercial and my new motto.

I found the glow in the dark creature from the black lagoon the 3" at a good will for 99 cents

[@Collectorsconfessions]

That’s a score. I wish we had good Will stores around us that actually had something besides clothing!

[@ChadFarley-x9f]

Dude .99 for a Remco! Thats a steal!

[@CDRrockwell]

Hooboy, talk about memories! I had the 8" Dracula, Frankenstein, Mummy, and Wolf Man AND the freakin' Monsterizer! I'd sit up late at night playing with them while Excalibur was on Cable.

[@Collectorsconfessions]

Wow! You were lucky enough to have the Monsterizer!!! You must have been a big monster fan!

[@CDRrockwell]

@@Collectorsconfessions Actually I was not, I was 12 and back then you got what the parents bought and knew better than to complain.

[@lordmegatron9248]

Still have my creature and Wolfman figs. I played with them with my gi joes

[@Collectorsconfessions]

That was a great idea, must have been lots of fun. Thanks for sharing

[@lordmegatron9248]

@@Collectorsconfessions damn cobra always used them as weapons against the Joe's lol

[@Collectorsconfessions]

My Wolfman just hung out with Chewbacca.

[@allthesepaiges]

@@Collectorsconfessions Love how you incorporated these into other lines

[@Collectorsconfessions]

We always had some extra characters in our stories.

[@pagsthirdbase]

I had some of the 8" ones, they were great and you described the weird body perfectly

[@Collectorsconfessions]

Yeah they were so different from Mego

I was born 1995 and my father and I watched the universal monster movies we rented them from our local video store and they have been a big part of my life since I collect mostly new stuff because it's cost effective but Id love those mini monsters for sure

[@Collectorsconfessions]

You father must be awesome! There’s really Nothing better then sharing your love of something with your children. Those memories last a lifetime for parent and kid! Check flea markets and yard sales, you could get lucky!

[@MisterJessel]

I had the mini Drac, Frank, Wolfie and Creature back in the day. Now I have the beautiful 7in NECA Universal monsters

[@Collectorsconfessions]

They were awesome! They went well within my Star Wars world! Wolfman hung out in the Cantina!

[@allthesepaiges]

Didnt know these existed. Will have to look for the Dracula

[@Collectorsconfessions]

Glad we could help, hope you find one at a good price

[@VikingEric]

I have two sets of the original remcos with the case. One is my original that i got for christmas when i was 6. the other I bought 10 years ago because it was in such good shape compared to mine. all cardboard pieces intact, etc. I had the glow in the dark versions later, but always preferred the original ones that went with the set. Now, I have the Ultimates that just came out as well as the last 3 7" lines and various other UM stuff. Frankenstein and Dracula are my favorite movies, though I tend to watch the wolfman more for some reason. Just bought the Mezco (not official) monster tower to put one set of my OG 3.75" figures on with the lab/case adjacent to make one scene.

[@Collectorsconfessions]

This is fantastic. We love to hear from fellow monster fans. Would love to see how you display them.

[@treyjohnson4035]

I ran up on a later distribution of the dracula,the white area had lesser detail on the medalion,and.some boots had lace detail

[@Collectorsconfessions]

What company put it out and what year is it from?

[@treyjohnson4035]

@@Collectorsconfessions it was remco

[@treyjohnson4035]

What I'm looking for is replacement hand for my dracula, new.clothes and boots

[@G.I.JOE_fan]

The Monsterizer to me kinda looks like the apparatus that Boris Karloff put Glen Strange's Frankenstein Monster in to revive him in House of Frankenstein.

[@Collectorsconfessions]

It absolutely does, good pick up.

[@G.I.JOE_fan]

@@Collectorsconfessions thank you.

[@treyjohnson4035]

I've seen reissue versions in a larger scale

[@Collectorsconfessions]

How old are they?

[@treyjohnson4035]

@@Collectorsconfessions its the super7 versions,the card is the exact same just bigger,say 8 inch,and the sculpts are movie accurate with the same articulation as the old ones

[@patsparks8731]

@@treyjohnson4035Yes! They are great!!… but they are actually made by Neca. They even use the same card art like the original Remco glow in the dark line. People still love the Universal Monsters….I know I do. Great video!

[@Collectorsconfessions]

So do we, grew up watching them wish they brought them back right

[@treyjohnson4035]

When I was in 1st grade,picture day saw me in the bottom row sitting indian style with my mummy figure standing right in front

[@Collectorsconfessions]

Not only is that awesome! I really wish I would have thought of it when I was a kid!

[@BillyBobKornhol]

Why is this Dollar Store Jimmy Dore knock off leaning into the camera for?

[@Collectorsconfessions]

What are you even talking about?
