    Wolfman Flasher Faces



    Behold the last Monster Rack Toy ever produced by AHI! Flasher Faces popped up five years after the Monster merchandise bonanza of the mid seventies and while AHI was doing wonderful things with the license under their Remco brand, these flasher faces are the sole bit of cheap, dime store goodness produced during this period.

    I bought the Wolfman above so I could feature it in Rack Toys, I'm cheating with the Flashlight used because this is some super LED thing from my junk drawer and not the one included, which needed a new bulb.

    If anyone has the Frankenstein and would like to sell it, please drop me a line. Despite my "I only collect figural items" rule, for some reason I really like these.

      Cool, but if I hadn't seen the package, and you hadn't told me, I would have thought "Chewbecca flashlight!"

        Cool, I've never seen these. It's interesting that the card design is quite different between the two.

          Actually I think the Wolfman that got released had Artwork that looks like the Frankenstein. It looks like they just used a mock up for the catalog.

            I like the Frankenstein one. Those would have been fun to Trick or Treat with!
            "Do you believe, you believe in magic?
            'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
            Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
            If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

              Maybe it's just the view from here, but Frankenstein's face looks a bit like Christopher Lee's face, plus Boris' hair.
