I've only recently become aware with how guarded Lugosi's likeness is.
It makes sense on one level, but looking at the specifics of what licensors are and are not granted the license makes no sense at all.
There may be a monetary aspect to of which I am unaware.

So before i get too excited i just want to know that a Universal Monsters license for Neca means Monster(s) not Monster.

In every NECA post there's someone talking about Godzilla figures "clogging the shelves" or the like.
I have not encountered that to be the case out in the wild at all.
Not only did the Godzilla figures sell well in my area, but NECA hasn't had any new Godzilla product, and thus nothing to clog the shelves with for months.
