    RE: AHI FRANKENSTEIN - Variations?

    Okay...I just purchased this AHI Frankenstein Figure.

    AHI SuperRARE VARIANT FRANKENSTEIN FIGURE Mego ERA LOOK - eBay (item 390128502514 end time Dec-14-09 08:07:01 PST)

    Has anyone compiled a list of the many AHI Frankenstein variations that are out there? I was thinking about trying to collected them all.

    Yes, but don't ask me where

    I remember seeing a site years ago that listed a ton of variations with pictures of each.

    Can't remember where it was though

            Yeah a lot of AHI stuff turned up in weird packaging after the fact. Someone told me once those curved wrist guys were in baggies with header cards but I've never seen it.

            I have seen some AHI Batman stuff with an "LHT" logo but not sure if it's a foreign distributor or somebody just swiping the item.

              Hey B, LHT is Len Hunter Trading from here in Melbourne, they did reissues of the plastic AHI Batmobile and Batboat in the early 80's, and they were also responsible for the 1982 release of the unaltered Mego Batman Bendy on unique LHT blister card, which is why so many perfect loose bendy Mego Bats turn up on ebay aust.

              Reminds me I have a former LHT employee to chase up :-)

              Cheers!

                        And then there are the head versions. Check out this really interesting thread at the Universal Monster Army. Its got a great shot of all the different head sculpts.

                          Are there different versions of the clothing AHI monsters come with? I always see the same black jacket & pants, but my AHI Frankenstein came in a dark orange turtleneck sweater; I've seen so many pics of him wearing a moss-green colored turtleneck.....
