A Series One Universal Studios Monsters Action Figure (measures 3" x 8 3/4" x 14" [8 x 22 x 36 cm]) (Learn More) The Wolf Man, the 1941 George Waggner Universal werewolf monster horror thriller (written by Curt Siodmak; about the son of a Welsh nobleman who returns to Wales after many years in America, and things start out well when he and his father reconcile, but then he meets a beautiful girl at a carnival, and a gypsy fortune teller sees the sign of a wolf on her palm, and soon after, she is bitten by a wolf, and the man tries to save her, but she is killed, and he manages to kill the wolf, but is bitten during the process, and later, the gypsy turns up dead, and the man is the primary suspect, and that is only the beginning of his massive problems!) starring Claude Rains, Warren William, Ralph Bellamy, Patric Knowles, Bela Lugosi (as Bela), Maria Ouspenskaya, Evelyn Ankers, and Lon Chaney Jr. (in the title role "as 'The Wolf Man'"/Lawrence Talbot). Note that this was the only classic 1940s original Universal monster (the others originated in the 1930s). Actually, however, there WAS a 1930s Universal werewolf before this, which was in 1935's "Werewolf of London", but Universal did not like the way Henry Hull's makeup looked in that movie, so they restarted the character in this movie, with completely different makeup! In addition, they had the great fortune to hire screenwriter Curt Siodmak to come up with an original screenplay, and unlike several past classic Universal horror movies, this was not based on a classic story, but instead was a Siodmak original, and it was brilliantly written and has been imitated countless times since!

What is important for the bidders to know is that this item very likely CAN'T be combined with other purchases, because there would not be much savings if any, because this item will be in a box with substantial depth (because the item is "three-dimensional"), while other purchases will be in a flat package, and trying to combine them would likely damage this item. If you purchase multiple items like this (ones that need to be packed in a box), then they likely can be combined with each other (unless the resulting box is simply too large). So please bear in mind that this item likely must be sent separately in a box (the size and depth of the box will depend on the size of the item), and bear this added expense in mind before placing a bid on it (so if you would pay $150 for the item, but the shipping is likely $100, then only bid $50 for the item). Condition: very good. The figure is in its original blister package (which has some warping at top and general wear) and it is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
