Maybe they were designed by Jack Kirby, 'cos they're nearly all standing with their feet four foot apart. (Ho ho!) Got the Frankie one, used to have the Supes one. I've got the larger version though.
Those 12 inch figures were strangely rare around here.i think it was because department stores over-ordered on these standard ones.I remember shelves overflowing with them for years.The Monsters were re issued in the early 2000's by Figures Toy Company and that includes not only the 4 original Monsters, but alo a Devil, a Witch, a Reaper, and a Ghost.
I have heard about greying and seen examples of it. My figures never got grey despite being around all these years.They were in cardboard boxes until about 20 years ago when I put them in the jewelry case you see in the photo.Maybe that helped somehow.I am missing a few boots and some accessories, but there is plenty of online stores the make reproductions of those things,so I plan on sprucing them up.
That's a great childhood collection, Brian. I like Dracula and Frankie. Don't they have glow in the dark heads & hands?
