Toony Terrors Invisible Man, Bride, Creature, Phantom Figure Details and Accessories

NECA has packed a surprising amount of play value into each 6″ figure:

Invisible Man comes with two head sculpts—one with his signature hat and one without—a potion and his trademark bag.

Bride of Frankenstein features two heads—a classic coiffure and a more dramatic expression—and her iconic white-streaked hair rendered in cute style.

Creature from the Black Lagoon includes a fossilised hand, a whimsical nod to his amphibious lair.

Phantom of the Opera also sports dual heads—a masked and an unmasked version—for dramatic display variety.

Packaging is delightfully retro, featuring classic blister cards with cut-out backdrops, while the bundle arrives in a windowed box perfect for collectors.

Behind the Design, How NECA Adapted Universal Monsters into Toony Terrors Series 12

NECA excels at blending horror iconography with cartoonish proportions.

If you enjoyed the styling in the Toony Terrors Universal Monsters Silver Screen review or the moody vibes of the Phantom of the Opera Red Death figure review, you’ll appreciate this playful yet respectful twist on classic horror.

Best NECA Toony Terrors Series 12 Figures Ranked

Here’s my ranking, from most to least favourite:

1. Invisible Man – The dual heads (hat/no hat), potion and bag give him maximum versatility.
2. Bride of Frankenstein – Feminine charm meets cartoon sass, thanks to expressive options.
3. Phantom of the Opera – The dramatic flair is sublime, perfect for gothic displays.
4. Creature from the Black Lagoon – Solid design, though the lone accessory nudges him to the bottom.

What We Do in the Shadows, Toony Terrors Series 11 Bundle Comparison

Series 11 spotlighted the What We Do in the Shadows cast—Nandor, Laszlo, Nadja, Guillermo and Colin—in a comedy-horror style bundle featuring character cut-outs. Series 12, by contrast, re-focuses on classic Universal Monsters with bold, theatrical charm. Both bundles are top-tier, but Series 12 is ideal for those drawn to vintage horror with a playful twist, while Series 11 suits sitcom-style vampire fans.

Final Thoughts

The Universal Monsters Toony Terrors Series 12 NECA set brings together retro nostalgia, stylised art and playful accessories in a charming package. They’re brilliant solo or as part of a horror‑comedy collection. My pick? The Invisible Man steals the show, but each has personality to spare. And at ~US $60 for the full bundle, it’s a savvy pre‑order value compared to buying each figure separately.
