    EMCE/AHI Frankenstien Swap-Out

    I totally love the EMCE Frankenstien! But, why stop there? I had an extra AHI Karloff head just sitting here, sooooo, I give you Boris Karloff as The Monster!
    This is an easy swap if you want to make one. You just need an extra EMCE Frankie and an AHI roto cast Karloff head. Just pull off the Glenn Strange head and twist on the Karloff head!
    Also took some shots of him facing off againts my "tweaked" original Mego Human Wolfman!!

    That's wicked cool!
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

      Too cool!! Ya know, I'm always happy with my collection until I see some new cool monster idea John comes up with.... Then I want something more.... John- does the EMCE Frankenstein head come off easily? I'm afraid to try and pull mine off in fear of breaking it....

        Mine popped right off. I would not try it if I only had one Frankie, cause ya gotta have a Glenn Stange version too! Pick up an extra Frankie and use that one.

          Well... Come to think of it, I don't have an EXTRA AHI Frankenstein head lying around either... I should be more concerned with that head breaking upon removal... But the AHI head is as or more smushy than a CTVT head... Well... I'll try it... Wish me luck so I don't break any of my toys trying...

              It actually is when you look at it. Just really looks like it was made that way.

                  Uncanny! I actually have an AHI Frankie that has seen better days… 35+ years old and he's recently taken a beating "chasing" my 1-1/2 year old son around the house. I might have to purchase two of the new Frankies and do a head transplant. Might get another 35 years out of AHI Frankie!

                        I haven't tried it yet. I did repaints on my existing one and got attached to it, so I'll be looking for an extra one to buy. I have one spare, banged up AHI Franky who needs a new "host" for his head. I'll definitely be doing it.

                          I got ya.
                          I love the Strange sculpt, so I would not have done the swap unless I had and extra Strange Frankie either.

                            Just makes me think how good that AHI Frankenstein head actually is, hard to beat.

                              I swapped mine today WOW! It looks amazing. I was worried the hands would be too light compaired to the head, but it really isn't at all! Thanks for thinking of this!
