Ted, thanks for the heads up, I ordered the Creature for CFTBL pinball and I also ordered a Frankenstein for my Monster Bash

The company also has a Dracula which would be cool for Monster Bash as well...

Yes...it would not fit in my gameroom. I'm not using it for that. Mine is for my Cigar Room and the Creature will be sporting a large stogie. I just remembered a bunch of Pinsiders wanted them a while ago and they were sold out.

Yay for Fright Catalog!

I've been patronizing them since 2000 or so, although I can never afford to get the really cool stuff (which they always have A LOT of).

Yeah, good place. I missed out on these the last time and refuse to pay hundreds of dollars on Ebay. I called them and asked to be notified when they were available again. They called and sent Email. They also said they would be gone pretty fast....

How much you wanna bet part of that reason will be from some mod-flipping tool buying a lot and throwing them up on eBay for a ridiculous price?

(And if that tool is reading this, you suck, and are a great part of what makes the current state of the hobby shitty.)

Kudos for waiting it out, instead of overpaying and supporting the greedy opportunistic arseholes who couldn't care less about pinball and the people who love it.

WOW! The Creech arrived in the mail. Even though these figures looked pretty good in photos, I actually never saw one in the flesh, er, scales...
Anyway, they are FANTASTIC! The paint job is great! Here are a few pix of it in the box!

I agree. I was actually quite shocked at how good this thing looks. It is actually pretty creepy... especially the eyes. Mine had one of the claws/nails broken off. But, it should be pretty easy to glue and not noticeable as it's in an all black area.

VERY happy with this one!

Yeah, that's the first thing I checked, to see if any nails were broken. But, nope...all intact! Now just gotta find a place for the new, as my wife calls it, "dust collector"
