Halloween is the season of ghosts, ghouls, and monsters, but some figures in horror transcend time, becoming symbols of dread and fascination for centuries. At CJB Collectibles & Toys, we are thrilled to introduce two legendary figures that have shaped the world of horror: Frankenstein’s Monster and Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven, both brought to life in exquisite miniature form by Marco Navas. These collectibles are not just toys—they are tributes to the genius minds that gave birth to these iconic tales.
Frankenstein, Frankenstein & The Flowers of the Water Figure
Inspired by Mary Shelley’s revolutionary novel, Frankenstein or The Modern Prometheus, this figure captures the haunting essence of the monster—not its creator, Dr. Victor Frankenstein. Shelley’s work, first published over 200 years ago, is widely regarded as the first science fiction The Frankenstein & The Flowers of the Water miniature celebrates this legacy, offering a delicate yet powerful portrayal of the creature who sought humanity but was met with rejection and fear. This figure captures the iconic scene where the monster, in a rare moment of peace, interacts with nature—an act that tragically turns fatal. In both the 1933 film and the novel, this moment culminates in the monster nervously throwing the little girl into the water, where she accidentally drowns. The figure reflects the haunting beauty and tragic complexity of Shelley’s creation.
This collectible is more than just a nod to a classic—it’s a way to immerse yourself in the rich world of literary horror, where the monster’s struggle for acceptance mirrors deeper themes of human nature.
Edgar Allan Poe, The Raven Figure
Equally as captivating is the figure from the Sculpted Tales collection, paying tribute to none other than Edgar Allan Poe’s masterpiece, The Raven. Poe, the master of macabre, explored themes of love, loss, and death like no other, and this figure reflects the haunting beauty of his work.
The Raven miniature is part of the POEms of Muses, Love, and Death series, crafted to bring visual storytelling into your space. Whether perched on your bookshelf or in your reading corner, this figure serves as a reminder of Poe’s enduring influence on the horror genre. The dark, mysterious aura of The Raven comes alive in this intricately designed piece, making it a perfect companion for Halloween or any time you wish to channel the eerie charm of Poe’s world.
Both of these miniatures, crafted by Marco Navas, capture the very essence of what makes these stories timeless. Whether you’re a fan of Frankenstein’s tragic monster or Poe’s poetic dread, these collectibles are perfect for embracing the spirit of Halloween.
At CJB Collectibles & Toys, we believe in celebrating the legacy of horror that has shaped our imaginations for generations. Add these stunning figures to your collection this Halloween and bring a piece of terror into your home. 🎃
