Published

on

There are a ton of toy companies that have released action figures based on the classic Universal Monsters and now Jada Toys is getting into the game with four brand new authentically-licensed figures of their own.

The 6” figures and their packaging are modern takes on Universal Pictures’ 1930s-1950s horror characters Dracula, Frankenstein’s Monster, The Bride of Frankenstein, and The Creature from the Black Lagoon.

Each with 20+ points of articulation, the figures come with character-specific accessories.

Moreover, Jada Toys is set to release a reverential Frankenstein’s Monster figure in fall of 2021 as part of their exclusive Next Level line of products. This limited-quantity item has been rendered in grayscale to accurately recreate the original run of Frankenstein’s Monster appearances in Universal Pictures films from the 1930s and 1940s. “The special Deluxe Frankenstein kit includes a functional operating table as seen in the classic movies, plus accessories and packaging.”

This is just the beginning as Jada Toys has future plans to release The Invisible Man and The Wolfman action figures, the press release promises.

Priced at only $24.99, the four flagship Universal Monsters pieces from Jada Toys can be pre-ordered at EE and BBTS.
