    Your Targets sell them for $32???? Mine are $43.

    Can't say. It's my wife's figure I got her as a late Xmas present. Well, I bought it before Xmas, but didn't have the POL ship until last week.

    Does Frankenstein's table tilt like the Jada version?

    I’ve been waiting for Dracula & Invisible Man to show up in store. Where’d you purchase yours.

    I looked up a review of the Jada set…and their Franky is surprisingly smaller than NECA’s.

    For some reason I thought they might be closer in size...haha. I was just hoping maybe the Jada operating table might be compatible with NECA's Frank...probably not going to work, though...

    BBTS.

    Man, I love how the Jada one has double jointed elbows and knees. Wish NECA did that.

    It is but NECA's GENERALLY true 7" scale. Okay, NECA scale can vary between lines. Their TMNT are essentially 6.5" scale and their Gremlins and ALF are closer to 1/6 and their Aliens and Predator (the aliens themselves anyway) are AWFULLY BIG for a guy in a suit on a movie set. But their R-rated humans clock in at 7" generally.

    And Jada follows Marvel Legends comics scale, which is closer to 6.5" or 1/11. (Marvel Legends movie figures are generally 6.25" scale, which stands out when things like the suit body got reused for comics characters.) Jada's 6" figures are consciously designed to blend with Marvel Legends comics figures.

    I think the big difference there is probably that Jada is going for the "actor in makeup" aesthetic whereas NECA's making them a bigger to look more monstrous?

    Practically, there shouldn't be more than a half inch of difference.

    We have a dedicated Universal thread, right? Just so I know where to gush about and share some nitpicks of the Jada line in the future.

    Anyway, Jada’s Creature from the Black Lagoon is exactly 6” scale at 6.5”, to fit Roy Chapman’s 6’5” height out of costume. Both Draculas are 6.25”, so only slightly out of 6” scale compared to Lugosi’s height. Frankenstein is 6.8” tall, but I cannot for the life of me find an accurate height for Karloff in-costume.

    Out of those I have so far, even with the unknown height none look to be 6.5” scale. They just look as big as they do and appropriate to ML scale because the monsters are big.

    Saw the Frankenstein Accessory Set at three different Targets today. Picked it up at the first one. Rang up $32.99.
