Hey guys and gals It's been a very exciting couple of months and obtaining a set of these guys mint on card was a big reason why. Lincoln Monsters were released when Mego toys were at an all time high. With their individual card art graphics along with their facial expressions it made the entire item alot of fun. My personall favorite happens to be the Phantom of the Opera so much so that it made me take my wife to see the play in New York. Sick I know but true. sigh....lol Seriously though, I've always wanted a set of Lincolns and this two case find that recently took place in the United Kingdom made it happen. A sellers grandfather left her two entire cases and while many were bought up by your usual pond scum some did wind up going into collectors hands which is cool. Lincoln Monsters were released on both cards and boxes. The boxed Lincolns were only released in the United Kingdom ( see pic for an example ) which makes them super hard to find. Again, the artwork simply kicks butt! It's a pleasure posting this pic for all of the members of the Legions of Gotham to enjoy and please feel free to ask any questions that you may have about this classic line.

Matt, first off thanks so much for the kudos. As for the Lincoln Monsters, yea, their a bit on the pricey side but I got them for half of the eBay price. The seller really wanted me to have a set as she recoginized the enjoyment I get from them. That combined with the fact that I did a 6 week payment plan softened the blow a bit financially for me which was very kind of her. I've got some other spooky treats for you guys that I know you'll enjoy. Keep your eyes open and your homepage set to the LOG for more pics! ;D ( hows that for a LOG sales pitch?) ;D
