[QUOTE=PM Moderator;2548690]Here are three new Moebius kits that are not in BT's report:

1/8 scale Spider Man
1/8 scale Green Goblin
1/8 scale Karloff Frankenstein

All are new sculpts........ No pictures of the two Marvel kits yet, pending licensor approval. They are Comic book versions of these two characters..

The Frankenstein is planned as a scene from the original motion picture. We may post the photo reference soon.....No pics of kit yet as sculpture is not approved by licensor.

Plans are for first half 2009 releases on these kits....


Can't wait for this one to be released:thumbsup: Frankenstein in a new sculpt:woohoo::woohoo:

Who is doing the Sculpt for Frankenstein? Box art? and which pose will he be in? and did I mention that this is an ultimate dream kit come true for me?

Frankenstein is the kit that started it all back in 1961 IMHO and to see it being resurrected is just way cool......:wave:

That's the Frankenstein photo Moebius had on display so I bet that's what the new model kit will look like.

Yeah Quoting Phibes from the Clubhouse (who was talking to Frank);
I spoke with Frank Winspur on Saturday about Iron man and the kit will not have clear lenses for the repulsor rays.
Also, the Frankenstein kit will have the Monster (Karloff) coming through the lab door, as in the famous still. :http://monsterscene.net/frankensteindoor.jpg
So we can more than likely look forward to this Model Kit, which I think will be totally awesome...That's Frankenstein, the Mummy and I also read that Frank wants to do a Creature from the Black Lagoon while the licensing is still in effect:thumbsup: I wonder how many Universal Monster Models in all new poses we'll actually see come to fruition ? I don't know but I sure like what I'm hearing:thumbsup::woohoo::wave:

Are these in the same scale as the PL Bride of Frankenstein? I have a had a PL Bride since they came out, but I never built her as I wanted a Frankie that looked good to go with her and I never liked the Aurora one.
I will definatly have to get Frankie and the Mummy.

Ohhh, thats the pose I had pictured in my mind when they said it was taken from a scene from the movie! Lynn, I bet the New Frank will be somewhat larger than the old Bride. I think the new kit will be 1/8th scale, the Bride was about 1/12th if I recall correctly..

Bummer on the scale, but they would still compliment each other as far as looks.

The PL. Bride kit is about 1/10 scale - the figure is about 6.5 inches tall that translates to about 5ft 5 in @ 1/10 scale
