Jaymar Frankenstein Puzzle

Frankenstein Puzzle
Jaymar (1963)


This is the small size 10"x14" puzzle.


Here it is put together. The image was inspired by the 
film "Frankenstein meets the Wolfman" (1943).
I love that the guy on the table has a pool of blood
under his head and there is a giant hypodermic needle
laying there. Little kids were not snowflakes in the early 60's.

The Tomland Yeti Figure Is Ernest Borgnine???

So.....
I just learned that the head sculpt for the
Tomland Abomindable Snowman/Yeti was
based on a character that Ernest Borgnine
played in a 1975 movie called
"The Devil's Rain".



Now every time i look at that figure i see this...

AHI Frankenstein - Flat Palmed Variant

Frankenstein (Flat Palmed Variant)
AHI (Azrak-Hamway) (1973-76)
8 inches tall


This is the "Flat Palmed" variant,
also referred to as "Type A".
The hands face out rather than to the side of the body.
This variant has a hard rubber head 
whereas the others have a squishy head.

AHI Frankenstein - Green Variant

Frankenstein (Green Variant)
AHI (Azrak-Hamway) (1973-76)
8 inches tall


I am completely obsessed with AHI Frankenstein figures
and have many variants that will be seen in future posts.
This variant is sometimes referred to as "hands to the side"
or "Type B". AHI never made an official designation for these 
figures, so it is left to collector interpretation.

ReAction Dracula

ReAction Dracula
Funko (2014)

I am not generally interested in newer toys,
but these ReAction figures are too cool to pass up.
Really nice detail.
