Mighty Mego Monster of Frankenstein

[BudgetMego]

My first exposure to this guy was the Power Record. My folks got me my first record player one Christmas, and knowing what I liked, got me a bunch of Power Records to go with it. I was at that age where I was still too young to buy the comics when they first came out. Fast forward to the 80s, and I was in my mid teens with odd jobs, whose proceeds I spent at the comic shop. In the three for a dollar boxes was the entire series, only about ten years old at the time. Got a good Bronze Age collection pretty cheap that way. Now in my old age, I'm happy to attempt my own custom of the Monster. Built on a Trek body. I left the black pants, painted the boots brown, and the hands grey. Can't see it in the picture, but I painted the fingernails black. Made the shirt. Cut the bear skin vest from an old terrycloth bath towel(washed of course). Made the head myself.

Now that turned out great! Really like your approach to a classic monster.

I remember having the power records Monster of Frankenstein book, and your custom is a good comparison, nicely done.
