It's no secret that the Creature From the Black Lagoon is my favorite of the Universal Monsters. There are lots of reasons.
The film was filmed in Silver Springs near Ocala, FL, which is near where I live. It's the one Universal Monster that is an original creation. He looks really, really cool!

Price: $29.00 from Mezco/Retail and I found it on Amazon for $49.00.
Robert's Two Cents
Points in Favor:
- It's The Friggin' Creature From the Black Lagoon
- Excellent detail
- Beautiful colors
- It has 11 points of articulation
Points Against:
- It has 11 points of articulation.
- Price. $29 is high for an action figure but not too bad for shelf art.
Recommendation: Buy. It's a cool piece. It's a little cartoony but not too cartoony. It will look cool on a shelf. It's The Creature from the Black Lagoon.
Also offered in a New York Comic Con Exclusive Translucent Version for $60.00. There was also a black & white version offered over the summer that is now sold out.
Buy direct from Mezco.
