Unearth a Classic Horror Legend.

Why Pre-Order? (And Why Waiting Is Actually Part of the Fun)

High-end collectibles like Official Props, Hot Toys and Sideshow statues aren't mass-produced tat you grab off a shelf. These are limited, painstakingly crafted pieces—and that means the queue forms before they exist.

Pre-order or miss out. It's that simple. Don't pre-order? You'll be watching fellow Universal Monsters collectors secure theirs while you're left searching the aftermarket. We've seen it happen. It's not pretty.

The wait is usually around six months—sometimes more, sometimes less—but here's the thing: life gets busy, time flies, and one day a parcel just arrives. A glorious, unexpected treat that past-you had the foresight to order. Future-you will absolutely high-five past-you for this decision.

Ordered from us specifically? Even better.

PRE-ORDER ITEM

This officially licensed The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) collectible faithfully recreates the legendary fossilised Creature hand discovered at the beginning of the film. Secure yours now before this cinematic relic disappears beneath the Black Lagoon once again.

The Fossil That Uncovered a Monster.

Before audiences ever encountered the terrifying Gill-man, The Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954) opened with one of horror cinema's most memorable discoveries—a mysterious fossilised clawed hand unearthed deep within the Amazon. This remarkable relic hinted at an ancient evolutionary mystery and set the stage for one of Universal's greatest monster classics.

Factory Entertainment faithfully recreates this iconic fossil as part of its acclaimed Scaled Prop Replica collection. Officially licensed and sculpted to faithfully capture the appearance of the original screen-used prop, this collectible preserves the distinctive shape, elongated claws and weathered textures that made the fossil such an unforgettable piece of cinematic history.

Expertly cast from solid metal, the replica delivers an impressive weight and premium feel while showcasing intricate sculpted surface details. A carefully applied finish recreates the fossilised appearance seen on screen, giving the piece the character of an authentic museum exhibit excavated from a forgotten age.

Standing approximately 7 inches (17.8 cm) tall, this scaled replica is perfectly suited for display on a desk, shelf or within a dedicated Universal Monsters collection. Complete with a display stand and presented in collector packaging, it arrives ready to become a striking conversation piece for classic horror enthusiasts.
