Screamin’ Freddy Kruger Model Kit, signed by Robert Englund

Does anybody own a Screamin Model Kit? I own one and the only reason I was able to buy it was because the store selling it went out of business. When I was 16 I worked at a deli in the mall. There was a comic/collectible shop in the mall near the movie theater. I knew one of the guys that worked there and he would hook me up with his discount in return for free food. So I use to buy all my comics and other collectible stuff there, they happened to have a Screamin Werewolf model made from resin and 1/6 scale. The only problem was it was $49.99 and that was high for me back then. So I let it go, a few months later the owner announced that the store was closing and everything had to go. Long story short I got the model for $20.00, I later spent the night cutting, gluing,drying and painting the model. But it was worth it Screamin makes very well sculpted models that is why they were a bit pricey.toyshack is selling a Screamin Freddy Kruger 1/4 scale. The model has already been painted and assembled so that takes some of the fun out it. But the model has been autographed by the great Robert Englund so that does make it a bit more special.

Here are two pictures of my Werewolf from Screamin.

A Nightmare on Ebay St

Its almost Halloween and what better way to celebrate than with Freddy Kruger. I think its awesome that pop culture allows us to celebrate a chard child murderer by creating action figures, posters,costumes,and clothing in his likeness. Freddy has definitely been one the most famous horror movie icons of all time. The recent resurrection of the movie franchise by Michael Bay was not up to par by my standards. Hopefully they will do a sequel and get it right.

funhobby2 is selling the Original talking Doll from Matchbox. That’s the people who make little cars. This doll was released back in the late 80′s. I have one of these along with the replica that was sold at Spencers. Low starting bid go for it.

groglenn has this piece of fine late 90′s craftsmanship by McFarlane Toys. The attention to detail at the time for the Movie Maniacs figures was incredible. Before NECA released their version this was the one everyone wanted. It has motion sensing sound effects. These are long gone from store shelves and the current bid on this is quite low.

kristieinaz has the small version of the Movie Maniacs Freddy at more reasonable starting price. If you can’t afford the one above this may be the way to go. There were two version of these released. One had blood splatter and the other didn’t. Toy stores like Toys R Us did not want to carry the ones with blood.

snakeyip why do you have to tease me with this? I have always wanted to MEDICOM Freddy. It was released in the 90′s, and just like everything MEDICOM does its perfect. They always find a way to make a minimal looking figure so detailed and appealing.
