Drastic Plastic: The Bride of Frankenstein and Dracula's Daughter

 Continuing my project to make mini monster customs, here's two I've blogged before, but this time they're all boxed up and accessorised.

Hope you like them.


Using empty fig boxes, I've gone for a sort of clear coffin look, Snow White style. The Bride comes complete with an electrode for mobile charging and Drac's daughter got a stake and a black cross.


The labels I printed on our micro printer and the price tags are courtesy of Bill.


These two Universal femme fatales are off for some beauty sleep now.

    Those were two great figures, and the 'clear coffin' boxes really suit them. The mini labels really look the part here. Well done.

    1. Thanks a lot. The 8p gives them an old feel I felt. I wanted 8d but I don't have a d!

    1. Thanks Looey! Yeah, Zodiac was a terrific chain of toy shops in the 60s and 70s in the UK. There was one in Preston where I lived. The price tag was sort of iconic.
