One of the most iconic Universal Monsters is getting an all-new figure from Mondo. They have opened up pre-order for their upcoming Creature From The Black Lagoon 1/6 Scale Figures. The figure is based on the Gilman from the original 1954 film. It will be available as a standard release, or as a black and white Silver Screen Variant. The 12″ tall figure includes three interchangeable portraits, two sets of hands, two sets of feet, and a fossil hand accessory.
The Creature From The Black Lagoon 1/6 Scale Figure is priced at $175. The Silver Screen Variant is priced at $185. Buy both and you can save 20% on the Silver Screen version. These are expected to ship out in February 2021. See photos, details, and the pre-order links after the jump.

Creature From The Black Lagoon 1/6 Scale Figures by Mondo
FYI. Despite their claim that this is the 1st 1/6 scale version, it is not. Sideshow released a 1/6 scale Creature back in 2003, along with a black and white variant.
This one, however, looks much better than that one.
I have to say, the silver screen version coming out of the water with colors in the background is kinda creepy--like that girl in the ring coming out of the tv in black and white lol
Sideshow also did an awesome "Creature Walks Among Us" 1/6th scale figure. I wish they would consider doing a new line of Universal Monsters. I believe the figures they did back in the late 90's are what put them on the map.
Need this.
I wish this was 1/12 scale....I think I still gotta get it. I don't have 1/6 stuff. The only other Mondo 1/6 I wish more than anything I bought was the original tmnt design figure. Aftermarket is insane on that now....
I don't collect 1/6!!!! No! I'm not getting it....I'm totally getting this. I have to. It's AMAAAAAAAAAZING. The movie is so great too.
Also, there is no really well articulated 1/12 scale CFTBL figure. I'm very sure about that...right? I need one SO BAD.
I've thought about getting a reaction CFTBL but it doesn't do it for me.

Ahhhhh yes, I'm remembering researching that a few years ago. Thanks for the reminders. That is a really good one. 7 inches works for me better than 12. Ebay aftermarket is about 75-90. That probably scared me off the first time. It's not looking so bad right now. There aren't even many available. It was $22 at retail! Argh!
