Mike Scott

If you haven't seen it, here is more of Ed Repka's Universal Monsters art. I think his stuff is terrorific!

I just ordered these beauties and guess WHO makes an appearance on one of the covers?

There's a Bride of Frankenstein cover and (I think) a Wolf Man cover, too.

The Mummy art is by Ed Repka, who has been doing the UM art for the "Super 7" products.

@Mike Scott As I read your post about the Creature figures and you stating that there were some you did not have made me wonder when is enough ENOUGH!

Never! I don't just have Sideshow figures. I have figures of all sizes and shapes, from a 1" gumball toy to a 2 ft. vinyl creature. Not to mention posters, iron-ons, trading cards, a Frisbee, a beach towel and on and on!

I wonder how they felt wearing the uniforms of such a hated regime? Even with the parody they must have been concerned especially if any of their families or acquaintances were affected during the War.

Unfortunately, they're all dead, so we can't ask them.

Much like the beloved John Banner, he was also Jewish and Austrian born interned by the Nazi regime .

All of the main Nazis on "Hogan's Heroes" were Jewish. Leon Askin (General Burkhalter) and Howard Caine (Gestapo Major Hochstetter) were both Jews and Werner Klemperer (Colonel Klink) had Jewish roots.

I was just" testing" the forum...I knew it all along.   Actually I did know it but hey even I have off days. What did you think of all the Creature figures Mike? Is there a collectable or just really nice item you love just that bit more. 

Love the Creature figures! Have some of them. Wish I had the others!

A young @Mike Scott well he had to start somewhere. I  it probably a Ben Cooper costume? 

It is a Ben Cooper. Unfortunately, I was 20 when that costume came out (1973).

Peter Cushing who also had the longest running joke in television history "I want my money" Morecambe and Wise:

So, what was the joke and how long did it last?

Just "Perfect" if you get the pun.

 

Good pun. Bad movie.

Charles Gray as Morcata 

Another terrific movie in the same sub-genre!

Is this a good movie MrHorror 🤔🤔 I have never watched it 

I agree with tv! NIGHT OF THE DEMON is classic horror! Directed by Jacques Tourneur (Cat People, I Walked with a Zombie, etc.) Screenplay by Charles Bennett (most of Hitchcock's mid to late '30s films.)

I came across this video on the Tube and I thought that it might be of some "Universal" appeal! 

Dark Corners Reviews has lots of terrific videos for us old school horror fans! The "M" and "Nosferatu" ones are favorites!

It's funny you said that because when I was a child here in Ireland I would pester him to smoke MORE cigarettes so that I could get the collectable cards free in inside.

You are a terrible son!

candy cigarettes are still a thing but i am surprised they have not been banned yet 

 

800 × 48

 

 

650 × 366

 

 

 

I'd be amazed if those (boxes that look like a pack of "Winsons", etc.) were still around 40 yrs ago! "Hey kids! Now you can get lung cancer, just like dad!"

 ... looks like they are the size that would have some candy cigarettes inside ??

 

And indeed the original boxes said "cigarettes" on them. Also, the '60s set had a Mummy, instead of a Phantom.

I'm gonna guess that the dog's name is "Rimshot"?

Yes I liked the look of the Mummy figure but never bought him I suppose I was too WRAPPED up in my collecting to notice.

Is there a "rimshot" emoji?

The Mummy PF is my favorite horror piece.

That and the Creature were the most expensive ones ($350 ea.) They also had the lowest and highest edition size. Mummy 300. Creature 1,500.

 I bought mine for about $35 postage to the U.K included in the good old days.

Those were the good old days! They're $200 and up, now. The Mummy even more!
