This listing is for a fully functional 1960's BATTERY OPERATED FRANKENSTEIN MONSTER as shown. This is not a reproduction toy. It is in excellent - near mint condition. Clothing, tin litho & plastic parts are very nice and clean. When switch is activated, All 6 functions work as follows: (1) He raises his head up, (2) His arms move menacingly up and down, (3) His body starts to sway from side to side as if walking toward you, (4) He makes a screeching monster like sound, (5) Then......suddenly...his pants drop down, (6) He looks down and his face turns red........and would you believe..... Frankenstein is wearing striped shorts. HOW EMBARRASSING!............Very entertaining toy. A must have for your next Halloween party. Process is repeated by lifting his pants and re-hooking them up. This toy has been tested and works fine. No damaged or missing parts anywhere. No rust or corrosion anywhere. Perfect battery compartment. This toy is approx 14" tall.
