    Boris Karloff as Hjalmar Poelzig Licensed Megostyle Figure

    Hello guys. For your perusal I give you Boris Karloff as Hjalmar Poelzig from 1934's The Black Cat Megostyle Figure. I hope you don't mind but I am over the moon with this and have added more than my usual amount of photos on this. I am happy because I feel it has not only caught Boris Karloff but I think it captures a true Mego feel at the same time. Oh and to make it that bit better the Likeness is Licensed by Karloff Enterprises / Sara Karloff. Full details of shipping and pricing at

      wow, great likeness and figure!
      It's equally cool Sarah extended a license to you.
      I have your Mr barlow and Pennywise - the quality is incredible. The painting and mad sewing skills are impressive.
      My only problem with them is, I can't have them all ;-)

            I am always impressed by your figures. But this one may be my favorite. It perfectly captures Karloff. And it has just the ideal mix of realism and Mego stylization.

                  That looks great, but your figures always do. I hope a Lugosi companion piece in the works.

                  I'm always amazed by the clothing on your figures. so well made with great material. Buttons are the right size collars and ties look right. Such great detail.

                  The head sculpts and paints are always top notch.

                  I hope you make some extra Fu Manchu's because it sounds like he is going to go fast.

                  I like your selection of Karloff's. Maybe a special edition Grinch could be added for Christmas, lol.

                          This is a fantastic figure. But that kind of goes without saying. It's nice to see you make "good" and get the license. You more than deserve it!

                          If the line were to continue, I'd suggest Karloff's character from "The Bodysnatcher". I LOVE that film.
