Transformers Collaborative: Universal Monsters Dracula Mash-Up, Draculus
(Ages 8 and Up / Approx. Retail Price: $31.49 / Available: 10/1/2021)
Worlds collide in this TRANFORMERS-Dracula mash-up pack! The mysterious Count Dracula takes on a new form as a TRANSFORMERS robot, called DRACULUS. We are dealing with the undead…an undead DECEPTICON! DRACULUS rises from stasis under the cover of darkness and feeds on the ENERGON of the living. The DRACULUS figure is inspired by the vampire from the 1931 Universal Pictures film, Dracula. The figure stands at 5.5 inches, converts into bat mode in 23 steps, and features details inspired by the Dracula movie, including black and white deco inspired by the black and white movie release. DRACULUS also comes with cape, blaster, and Impaler claw accessories.
TRANSFORMERS robots have always been More Than Meets The Eye, but now, through the TRANSFORMERS Collaborative, fans can experience these larger-than-life characters as they team-up, mash-up, and meet up with other characters, teams, and people who share this same special quality. DRACULUS is available exclusively at Target and for pre-order on Target.com beginning September 10, 2021 at 1:00PM EST with limited quantities on Pulse.com.

I like the packaging too though I don't feel the VHS tape is best suited for this release. When I think Bella Lugosi Dracula, I don't think VHS.

I would pay up to voyager price for this, but leader price is highway robbery.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

Is it Eee-gore, or EYE-gore?
Seriously, we need a Leslie Nielsen version of this figure...

Thanks, I ordered one there and added NEST Bumblebee to get the free shipping.
The box is kinda dumb. The description mentions him awakening from stasis at night so why not make a box that looks like a coffin shaped stasis pod? The VHS tape feels like a bad attempt at achieving that 80s and 90s vibe they've been going for with the other crossovers. Shaping it like a book would have made more sense.
Removing the headmaster is lame, too. Instead of being a robot like Dracula it could have been a robot for Dracula. And who sculpts a vampire head without visible fangs!? Plus it seems like whoever wrote the description hadn't seen the final figure because they keep stressing that the figure is in black and white with no mention of all the red.

To be fair, the robot mode sans accessories is in black and white. If it had been a Titan master they could have cleverly nodded to two of the most famous actors to have portrayed Dracula on the silver screen (Bela Lugosi and Christopher Lee)
What if they used Fangry instead? The wolf head at least looks better.primalxconvoy wrote:NOBODY LOVES WHEELIE wrote:Makes me think could Weirdwolf / Wolfman be next?
I was thinking the same thing.
