MOAR IMPULSE: Grandpa Munster!

Hey it’s the guy from the show with that Fallout Boy song! 

So, NECA impulse buys are always a crapshoot. A mid NECA fig is always more disappointing than a mid Hasbro fig because the average Hasbro fig at least has the kind of articulation you can do stuff with. When you know you’re getting NECA joints, you’re betting on a reasonable versioon thereof and hoping the fit and accessories take it over the top.

Grampa Munster is… fine! He’s not a disappointment like a Robocop or a standout like a Vincent Price. Out of the package I immediately thought of three things I’d have liked to see - a wired cape, a little table/rack for his science gear, and a deeper elbow joints because, as you can see, he can’t put the shovel on his shoulder like I would have wanted. 

Accesssory-wise he’s a smidge light. He has the cape, which is double-sided red and black, but a wire would have gone a long way. I know it wasn’t very dynamic on the show but still. He has three science flask things that are very nice and one of them has a little stand because it’s a sphere with a neck, but then it’s just hands and heads. The heads are laughing, grimace, and close-mouth, and they’re all nice and also it’ll be laughing head forever.

For the pic… look, I know Meat Man has gotten a lot of play lately but he just slots so nicely into different ideas, like “carrying a corpse down the stairs for weird mad science stuff”. 

Like Meat Man, Grandpa Munster is a fig in color that I needed to make B&W to fit the background from the show.
