Basil Rathbone

I would definitely be in for a Basil Rathbone figure, Sherlock Holmes.

[Jetjungle75]

Yes, Lionel Atwill. Could either go for the one armed police inspector from Son of Frankenstein, or the burnt and disfigured Ivan Igor from the classic Mystery of the Wax Museum. I know that an Ivor Igor figure has previously been produced, but it would be nice to see a Mego version. The head sculpt used for Freddy Kruger, could easily be reused for Ivan.

I wonder who would get made first between Fritz and Igor. With the Mel Brooks one out maybe that effects things too...

Colin Clive

[TheVintageToyKid]

Lawrence Talbot

[zeedox]

Maybe mego can make a Lon Chaney with Removable Wolf

[Earth 2 Chris]

I would lovet to see

Lawrence Talbot (The Wolf Man)
Maleeva (The Wolf Man)
Bela (The Wolf Man)
Wolf Von Frankenstein (Son of Frankenstein)
Ygor (Son of Frankenstein)
Inspector Krogh (Son of Frankenstein)
Henry Frankenstein (Frankenstein)
Fritz (Frankenstein)
Dr. Pretorious (Bride of Frankenstein)
Reinfeld (Dracula)
Professor Van Helsing (Dracula)

I know in the past it has been said Universal is reluctant to ever market Collin Clive's Dr. Frankenstein because of him having no known heirs, and them being afraid some may surface. At this point I think they should just take the chance. Chances are those heirs are dead too! It's been nearly 80 years since his death!

I’m almost surprised we didn’t get a Chaney since they licensed his rights for the Screaming Werewolf.

[zeedox]

Of course we need the Universal Van Helsing to balance out the Hammer one...

[Earth 2 Chris]

I’m almost surprised we didn’t get a Chaney since they licensed his rights for the Screaming Werewolf.

Yes, and I hope we get a Universal Wolf Man that actually looks like Chaney in the role. If I can only get one, make it from Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man. Jack Pierce perfected the makeup in that one. Not too much fur, not too little. Just right.

[Falstaff13]

I am fine with all of these good suggestions, and I'd love a House of Frankestein/Dracula count figure of John Carradine. I've always loved that look for Dracula, and even though I know I'm the only one who would want this, I still vote for a two-pack based on Billy the Kid Vs. Dracula. When we were getting the stage Lugosi and the Screaming Werewolf Chaney, I advocated that film was a way to get Carradine's House of vampire. Plus, Billy the Kid was never featured in the western line, so it works as a "two-fer" bringing some new options out in Mego style. As it is, the closest to that Billy is Dan Reid, Lone Ranger's nephew, in the Gabriel line (since Chuck Courtney played both).

I too would like a John Carradine Drac. As well as a Chaney Alucard, a Lugosi Ygor, a Kharis Mummy, and a Creature Walks Among Us. Still so many great Universal characters to make. For non-Universal (off topic, I know), an Oliver Reed Werewolf would be awesome.

I want a Kharis soooo bad, but my understanding is he's off limits. Universal insists the Mummy must always be Karloff.
