Glass Lite Dracula from Brazil
One of my favourite monster toys of late is this tremendously quirky 1980s action figure made in Brazil by the famous (to Star Wars collectors) Glasslite toy company.
Glasslite simply released the single 3 3/4″ Dracula, no other monsters appear on the card and he’s a pretty sweet figure but that’s not the best part.

They also created this killer Dracula gift set that gives Vlad a sweet convertible Porsche and a Monster Truck! It’s so wonderfully silly that I absolutely want it. Unfortunately, they’re hard to get so I’ll just have to stare at my buddy Phil’s.
Well, why not?
Every Distinguished Nobleman of the 80's (evil or not) just NEEDS a Porsche and a four-wheel drive. They didn't made a Helicopter just because Vlad can fly.
A Trans-am was a suitable substitute for the Porsche.
I really dig both the figure and playset. Very cool stuff, indeed! I hope you find one for your collection some day.
Peace,

I can just see Drac racing the Hulk on his Quadrunner.
