Best and Worst Dracula/Vampire Action Figures!

[ctc]

>I can appreciate the craft and detail involved, this one never really screamed "Vampire" to me.

Hmmmm 7:3/4" tall.... 8 1/2" with 'fro.

Y'know.... I can't pick a worst one, since I think ANY monster figure is cool.

Chris my kids LOVE the toy Island monster figures, in case you wanted to add the Mummy and Creech to the line.

Holee Dracula rampaging madness!!! They've taken out the Gorn, and Robin. (Whom they've pantsed for some reason....)

I love that little Dracula

Marvel Legends Dracula to me is a bit of a "miss", particularly since the other three figures he comes with in the Boxset are so awesome. I mean who's ever think we'd get Marvel's Werewolf by Night, Frankenstein and the Marvel Zombie as action figures?

[Werewolf]

It actually includes a bag of dirt (helpfully labelled "do not eat") to put in his coffin!

Undead? More like FUN-dead.

I always thought the Jakks Monsters were under appreciated and unfairly maligned. Same with the Toy Island ones. I think they're great.

I hate this hunk of crap

As a collector, I agree. As a parent, I found the Imperial line to be very kid friendly. Except for Franky who's head was small and popped off all the time. Looking back I should have waited on the Frankster. The first time my son accidently knocked the head off, I became "Hero of the Day" to my son when I simply popped it back on. After the third time watching me, he figured how to do it himself. Not bad for going on two. Every kid is different, I took him at three to see Army of Darkness, he loved it. The following Halloween I took him to a "Kickin" haunted house, toward the end he starting getting scared and I rushed him through. On my way out I heard other visitors saying: "Who would bring a baby to a haunted house?" Once outside, he wanted to go back in. From the back seat of the car I explained that we couldn't go back. He seemed to understand, and accepted it rather well for 4 years old. All the way home he giggled like the devil from the back seat. I was sad that the same people who had seen him having the time of his life for about 3/4 of the show, suddenly found fault when he got a little scared toward the end. This is why parents have to decide for themselves what is good for their child, even though it isn't for someone else.

I must say that the 12 inch Side Show (black and white) version of Bela Lugosi's Dracula is the best I've ever seen.

I must say that the 12 inch Side Show (black and white) version of Bela Lugosi's Dracula is the best I've ever seen.

SideShow's 12" line of monster dolls rules. I got Nosferatu and London After Midnight. Could you ever guess.
Yeah, that Bela is FANTASTIC. How about the Bela Frankenstein from Frankie vs. wolfie. Didn't they also do a Glenn Strange Frank as well. All the SideShow 12" monster dolls are to die for. I'll go with you, for it being the best, and that's a hard call.
As for the worst? I'm not sure. There were some "Spanish versions" of Drac that took the place of Bela due to likness rights of Universal.
Sorry, I have yet to come up with one to call the worst. Although that McFarlane "Vampire" just may be it.

I like those Oldman figures, they look bad ***

Imagine how cool it would have been if they did a figure with the Vlad the Impaler armour instead! 1/6th scale on a posable body with removable armor.


I didn't realize Sideshow had done a Lugosi as well!


Nosferatu!


and Oh Wow! Who'd of ever thought that we'd get a London After Midnight like this?

A company called Product Enterprise? There was supposed to be a Peter Cushing Van Helsing as well, but it never was released. Someone needs to kitbash the Star Wars 1/6th Tarkin figure!

I'm a bit torn about this one. This cartoony Dracula really doesn't look like much, but like all the Real Ghostbusters toys, it had a great action feature.

If Super Powers hadn't ended, you can just imagine what Kenner could have done with something like a Man Bat Super Powers figure that opens his mouth and flaps his wings.

The Tarkin head is a very good sculpt but its sadly TOO FRIGGIN BIG

I think I saw mock ups of Man Bat in one of the toy magazines along with the Catwoman prototype first shot . . . .?
