Creature from the Black Lagoon (27/54) - Super7 Revenge of the Creature ReAction Figures (2019)


Lest you think Super 7 created a single Creature sculpt and re-issued that over and over again... they also created a Revenge of the Creature (1955) sculpt, in chains, which has only been re-issued a comparatively few times...

First, the classic paint job...



Next came the con-exclusive obligatory Glow-in-the-Dark variant — however I give Super7 credit for at least giving us a newly designed cardback this time around (it too saw several variations before they did that with the classic Creature). 





And last — to date — but not least, Super7 released a boxed Jolly Rancher version (okay, I kid). Actually, this variant was inspired by a line of Monogram reissues of classic Aurora monster model kits in 1991 called Luminators — which were molded in different neon colored plastic, designed to shine brightly under black lights. And they do! Yes, I've still got my full set of built-up Luminators monster kits (including Frankenstein, Dracula, The Wolfman, The Mummy, The Phantom of the Opera, and King Kong — and inexplicably — NOT the Creature, or you would have already seen him here!). 


 


Return next week for more from my Creature collection!
