Just in case you guys are forgetting your Universal Monsters roots, please realize there is still life in that old license!
Since it has been one of my favorite versions of the character, I was seriously wondering, Why hasn't there been a doll of Claude Rains as the Phantom of the Opera? It would be a fantastic collector's piece on the shelf, and if done right (good costume, great sculpt,) it would be absolutely stunning when displayed next to the Lon Chaney version.
He could include interchangeable heads (one scarred, one normal) a removeable mask, a red lined cape, a hooded cloak, broad rimmed hat, a violin, a piece of rope and a tray of acid. I'd buy it in a heart beat!
BTW, all of the characters that NEED to be made:
Colin Clive as Henry Frankenstein
Basil Rathbone as Wolf von Frankenstein
Claude Rains as The Phantom of the Opera
Lon Chaney as Kharis
Bela Lugosi as Dr. Mirakle
Charles Laughton as Dr. Moreau
Bela Lugosi as the Sayer of the Law
Karloff as Hjalmar Poelzig
Karloff as Edmond Bateman (scarred version)
Rondo Hatton as The Creeper
Revenge of the Creature (could be a retool of the original creature doll, with slightly modified suit and an all new head sculpt.)
Bela Lugosi as Ygor
(I left off Maleva because I personally wouldn't want to pay 50 buck for a doll of an creepy old woman, but you should still make her since there ARE plenty of fans that would.)
Thanks for reading Sideshow guys, and keep up the FANTASTIC work!:D
