What happens when the monsters of yesteryear meet the monsters of today...

Big Frankie - Aurora to Mezco

Let me regale you with the tale of Big Frankie.

Originally designed to be a toy, the manufacturer Aurora got cold feet and released the figure as a model instead. The fact that the sculpt was more of a caricature then a realistic version of Boris Karloff as the Monster made it less appealing to the kids that were buying the extremely successful line of monster models the company made. That and his price tag being five times that of the regular models resulted in poor sales and a short run. This results in the model being highly sought after by collectors.

This brings us to Moebius Models and their re-release of the model. The kit is beautiful and comes in a Glow in the Dark version as well, but carries a price tag of $109.99.....too much for this here Fink.

Now we have Mezco and their upcoming Giant Frankenstein. for all I know that could be the name but I'm calling him Big Frankie and he's gonna have a home here at casa de Fink as soon as he hits the market.

DinoFroz

Okay, monster toy fans hold onto yer hats, ya think Monster in my Pocket was sumthin' ya ain't seen nuthin'



That is the commercial for DrinoFroz, a series of 24 Dinosaur toys made of slightly super deformed hard rubber dinosaurs figures that come blind packaged inside "frozen" eggs. The egg is broken open and water added which makes "snow" from which the dinosaur toy can be retrieved. Sound cool? it gets better. The other half of the egg contains a collector’s book to encourage collectability while a printed spinning top gives scientific details, characteristics and trading value of the creature. The spinning top can be used in gameplay; pitching one dinosaur against another with friends in a trading game from the ice age.

Sounds pretty damn awesome right?

Hold on...

The line was pretty successful and became DinoFroz World, where the egg idea was dropped and the game aspect of pitting the ferocious flesh-eaters against the horrifying herbivores in a never-ending battle...

Now if that weren't cool enough the line expanded again to DinoFroz Combact  and DinoFroz Duels and introduced not just prehistoric mammals to the battle, but a bizarre mutation in the dinosaurs causing all kinds of fun freaks with extra horns and tails.

Head hurting yet? I saved the best for last...
