The Monster Shoppe


DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION IN THE LAB, THE MONSTER SHOPPE IS
DELAYED INDEFINITELY
(BUT SHOWING SIGNS OF LIFE)!

SORRY, MONSTER FANS, BUT BECAUSE OF A HEAVY WRITING SCHEDULE, I'LL HAVE TO POSTPONE THIS FOR A WHILE.


Okay, wipe the drool off you fangs, Monster Lover -- as soon as Fritz is finished pulling up his socks, he'll be dragging more goodies into the store! In the meantime, here's a preview of "things" to come.

HOW TO ORDER: This here's a low-tech (but not low brow!) operation, so don't expect automatic replies and having your email box filled up with shipping updates. For now, all product updates will be announced right here at WORLD OF MONSTERS. What Fritz will promise you is personal service and a great line of monster goodies to roll over your cortexes. Everything sold here is from a private collection, and "vintage" items have been tucked away for years in the Mysterious Mansion.

SHIPPING POLICY:

RETURN POLICY: Fritz insists you know that THE MONSTER SHOPPE is not Amazon, Costco or the local library. He wants you to make sure that you review and order all items as carefully as handling a jar of brains. If you have any questions other than the description shown for an item, contact Fritz and he will try and answer them for you. As a result, returns are not accepted. If your package arrives damaged, Fritz suggests you file a claim with your postmaster. NOTE: Some more costly and one-of-a-kind "vintage" items are shipped with insurance which will be noted in the item description.

RESTRICTED ITEMS: Some items sold here are intended solely for mature buyers.

Description from the manufacturer:
Standing almost 16-inches tall at the wings, Great Cthulhu towers over all other figures, inspiring a mixture of awe and terror that is most appropriate in the presence of an Ancient One. Crafted by sculptor Brian Dugas, Great Cthulhu is one of the most intricately detailed Clix pieces ever created. From its open sores to its extra tentacles, the care and artistry that has gone into the creation of this figure is evident everywhere. Working from Lovecraft's description of Cthulhu in the short story "The Call of Cthulhu," Dugas mixed elements from many different sources to create the sculpture. Most notable was his use of real pieces of sea creatures (including shrimp and crab) for various parts of Cthulhu. The overall look of the sculpture is, therefore, very organic. You can almost smell the brine! The tenacious Dugas lifted his brush and turned to his paint to add the details that bring Cthulhu to life. The creature's skin is pallid, befitting something that has spent the last few thousand years in the darkness beneath the ocean. Brian's use of shadows and tones bring Cthulhu's trademark tentacles to life, and he added the sickly ichor and blood dribbling from a couple of superficial wounds that the Ancient One might have suffered in its slumber. The Great Cthulhu is not only a great piece for HorrorClix collectors but for any aficionado of the genre. Prepare yourself for the most ancient and evil collectible ever produced: the HorrorClix Great Cthulhu!

NOTE: The figure that's for sale here is complete and in the box. The wings are separate pieces but attach easily to the body. There are a few small spots where the paint has come off, but otherwise it's in great shape and ready for a new home to terrorize. Price: ? (includes shipping and insurance)
