Not a Star Trek fan myself so I seldom pay attention to such things, but I've seem people comment that Shatner's face is rarely captured well in action figures or sculptures.  This one looks more like Lee Majors than William Shatner to me.

Are there any nice sculptures -- not action figures or models -- of the classic Universal monsters (Lugosi-Dracula, Karloff-Frankenstein, Chaney-Wolfman, etc)?

Not bad!  It's a shame they did a better job of capturing Lugosi's face as Frankenstein's monster rather than Dracula, his signature character.  Is there more to this series, and who are they by?

** Corrected the reference to the monster as just "Frankenstein" ...

The Dracula statue is the closest to what I'm looking for (even if the face seems slightly off to me); I particularly like that it's in B&W.  If there are comparable statues of the Wolfman and Frankenstein's monster, I think I'll be hunting for them.
