The Shadow Bagatelle Game (Sponsored Link) —
Another ultra-cool toy for the Shadow that appeared in the mid-1970s, just as nobody was talking about the Shadow. It’s also gorgeous.

Ben Cooper Tarzan Halloween Costume (sponsored link)
Oh man, I just realized this suit is definitely released at the same time as the Filmation cartoon. I also appreciate the extra “Breathin’ Hole” on the mask.
Horrible Rat display box (sponsored link) —
As a lover of Rack Toys and the movie “Willard,” there isn’t much I dislike about this. I’m sure these kinds of toys are available today, but not in the gorgeous, hand-painted display boxes they once were.
Dracula Vs Frankenstein Game (sponsored link)
I think I have at least four different movies promising a “Dracula Vs Frankenstein” fight (with mixed results) but I’ve noticed that there are dozens of games that also explore that theme. I adore the design influences here, as this game seems to originate from Thailand.
Rare Italian Monster Target set (sponsored link) —
As much as I love seeing Karloff Frankenstein toys, I honestly prefer the generic monster at times. This gorgeous piece is made by Edison Giocattoli who also made those incredible TH3 Space toys.
Speaking of Generic Monsters, our Lincoln Monsters Kick Starter is Alive! Alive, I tell you!
