5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!, March 28, 2009

This review is from: Gigantic Frankenstein Big Frankie by Moebius Models (Toy)

I wanted this when I was a kid but it was too expensive. The normal sized monster models were only around $1.50 and Big Frankie was about $7.00. So, the rich kids were the only ones that seemed to have one. That was the 60's and finally Gigantic Frankenstein is unleashed again. Of course, now it's around a hundred bucks but worth every penny. Funky and detailed...just waiting for the artist's glue and brush. Big Frankie has lots of personality and makes a good friend through tough times. I got two!

It doesn't fit together as tightly as my first one did back in 1965, but I love it. I blew my first one up with fireworks for a student film in college. Is this one really as big as the original? Seems smaller, but I have only memory to judge it by. Makes me feel like a kid again, with a treasure.
