    Red-Haired Dracula

    When I started collecting vintage mego figures in the early 2000s, the prize figure of my collection was a red-haired dracula. Here is a small pic of my collection back then:



    You can see the red-haired dracula in the center with the mad monster castle. I was proud to be able to contribute a photo of the figure to the megomuseum galleries that's still up on one of the pages:

    I sold everything when I went to college and got back in the game again several years ago. I have been looking for another red-haired dracula and finally found another. Here are pics of the new addition:













    I'm very happy to be able to add this rare figure to my collection again!

    If you want to see my whole collection, here's a link to a video I posted a few weeks back:



    These forums have always brought me a lot of joy, even when I wasn't actively collecting. There are a lot of great people and collections here.

                      those are some awesome variants. I really like the look of the wavy hair Drac.

                          Red Drac and Blue Franky are hypnotic to me. Had a feeling you'd end up with this one, congrats!

                              Fabulous collection. Amazing how it has grown!!!! Loved the video, and in particular how you set up the Star Trek figures , on the Enterprise bridge. Looks like a scene straight out of the TV series!

                              With regards to the red haired Dracula variant, there is currently a red head Dracula original head for sale on eBay. Here is the link:






                              Pleased that you were finally able to replace your one. Looks great.
