Reunited!

[The Toyroom]

Yeah, I'm not 100% on how it went down but the sculptor of these told me that he was just told to do Dracula generic but was given still of Karloff and Chaney for the other monsters, it shows.

I guess the image of Quarry was handy but the doll wasn't based on that. What's weird is the mini monsters card shows Bela, I guess a deal was struck with his son? Although the figure is just as generic.

Yeah if you look at the copyright notices on the boxes, all of the monsters are the Big "C" of Universal EXCEPT for Dracula. Same thing for the missing tagline above Dracula's logo...the others all read "Official Universal Studio's..."

Obviously Bela Jr wasn't being cooperative so they went "generic" even though they used Count Yorga for the artwork.

Who says there is no such thing as Toy Karma?

Yeah, I'm really happy how that all went down, total win/win for everybody!

Obviously Bela Jr wasn't being cooperative so they went "generic" even though they used Count Yorga for the artwork.

I wish Bela Jr played ball more.
