NECA Has Colorized Frankenstein’s Monster for Father’s Day!
At long last, we’re getting top-shelf Universal Monsters action figures based on several of the original black and white classics.
NECA is giving life to these horror icons, including Lon Chaney Jr. as the Wolf Man from The Wolf Man (1941), Boris Karloff as the titular figure in The Mummy (1932), and Bela Lugosi as the legendary Count in Dracula (1931).
However, the crown royal is Frankenstein’s monster from the 1931 film Frankenstein. The sculpt captures Boris Karloff’s poignant portrayal of the misunderstood monster in authentic black-and-white, but a colorized version is also on the way. Before getting a wide market release, it will first come alive at Walmarts this coming Father’s Day.
NECA will also unleash an “Ultimate Kessler Wolf Figure” from An American Werewolf in London this fall.
Following in the wake of dolls based on The Shining, Stephen King’s IT, Beetlejuice, Gremlins 2, Elvira, and Annabelle, the Creature from the Black Lagoon is getting a Monster High doll.
On Friday, April 26th at 9am PT, Mattel Creations, Mattel’s e-commerce and content platform for creators, collaborations, and innovators, will be releasing the newest Monster High Skullector doll, Creature From the Black Lagoon!
In partnership with Universal Products & Experiences, Monster High is reimagining the iconic creature who lies in the mysterious depths of the Amazon just in time for the 70th anniversary of the classic film. The prehistoric amphibious humanoid dazzles in Monster High fashion with glimmering green gills, shimmering scales, and killer harpoon heels.
The Creature from the Black Lagoon Monster High doll features…
- 10.5 inches tall with 11 points of articulation
- New face sculpt (made specifically for this doll) on original scaly body with fin and gill details
- Wears a scaly swimsuit with pearlescent amphibious body armor
- Accessorized with anchor-accented fin headpiece and webbed harpoon heel boots
- Includes custom lagoon-inspired doll stand and premium packaging
On sale to the public beginning April 26, the limited edition doll will be selling for $65. These Monster High “Skullector” dolls never last long, so be sure to act fast this coming Friday!
