New to the AHI Monster Gallery (http://www.plaidstallions.com/racktoys/azrakmonsters.html) is this awesome display box of Super Monster Jigglers. I'm not very observant because someone smarter than me had to point out that there are two sizes of Monster Jigglers, the larger ones that came in this box that have tags and the slightly shorter ones that came on cards (someday)

Dracula was absent from this line for some reason, I'm guessing it had to do with the likeness rights of Bela Lugsio.

I've also revised a bunch of photos in the AHI Monster Gallery. (http://www.plaidstallions.com/racktoys/azrakmonsters.html)

You scored a display box. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeet

Likeness rights or not, this line just isn't complete without Dracula, they should've gone with a generic Dracula if Lugosi was too expensive.
The good thing is tho we got a Creatur jiggler, which probably wouldn't have been made if Dracula was in this series

Seeing that display put me back in time to the Kresge's. I can see in my mind exactly where on the shelf all of the jigglers were. I never got one, but I used to pick up a spider-man every time we were there shopping and shake him around a bit before sighing and putting him back. I remember seeing a mummy and wolfman, but not a creature or frankie.

That is flat-out awesome. Love the old-school, Halloweeny feel of this. The pink letters prove toy companies were just obsessed with pink back then.

I guess Lugosi's estate does have an upper-hand when it comes to licensing, since Bela didn't wear any real make-up as Dracula. If you want an authentic Drac, you gots to pay!
