MAN & SUPERMANTIS

The movie Goosebumps, opening tomorrow, features a giant praying mantis. Since the title character of 1957’s The Deadly Mantis...

 …has already been a Monster-of-the-Week back in 2008, how about this week…

Monster-of-the-Week: …we feature the Colossal Mantis from the AMT Gigantics model series of the ‘70s…


I like how the mantis seems to be holding the headline out so we can see it, like he's proud. I never had the mantis, but I did have the scorpion. Those two and the tarantula have been reissued by AMT/ERTL and are available on amazon; for some reason the giant wasp is not.
