>>5305470>Where's my Dracula?Now that's a good fucking question. I was pretty disappointed in Diamond Select for just opting for a generic head sculpt when they couldn't use Lugosi's likeness, despite the fact that pic related also existed. What a huge waste of potential that was.
Also, for the rest of the thread:
>Wolf von Frankenstein: You understand that, don't you, dear? He was right. It was the unforeseen blunder of a stupid assistant... that gave his creation the brain of a killer instead of a normal one. And how my father was made to suffer for that mistake. His name has become synonymous with horror and monsters. Why, nine out of ten people... call that misshapen creature of my father's experiments...>Guard: Frankenstein.- from "Son of Frankenstein". See; after Universal's posters and ads had misled the public into mistaking "Frankenstein" for the monster, that error was adopted into the movies' canon to justify it's continuation, I guess for the sake of convenience. Hell, by "Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein", they just flat-out forgot to incorporated a relative to Dr. Frankenstein to justify the film's misleading title on a technicality. Lou even refers to him as "Frankie" in one scene, further nailing that misconception into canon. It might still be dead wrong, but considering how loosely those films were an adaptation to the book in the first place, "Frankenstein" may as well be the name of that one particular iteration of The Monster.
