About Monster Fighters

A monster for every set

The theme follows the classic horror film playbook, with each regular set built around a single creature. The line runs from The Mummy (9462-1, 91 pieces) through The Werewolf (9463-1, 243 pieces) and The Vampire Hearse (9464-1, 314 pieces) to The Crazy Scientist & His Monster (9466-1, 430 pieces) and The Zombies (9465-1, 447 pieces). The story linking them has the monster hunters racing a vampire lord to collect a set of magical moonstones.

The big three

At the top end, The Ghost Train (9467-1) has 744 pieces and the Vampyre Castle (9468-1), the flagship of the main range, has 949. Towering over both is the Haunted House (10228-1) with 2,064 pieces, a large hinged building aimed at older builders and still one of the best-remembered sets of the theme. With only 14 sets from a single year, Monster Fighters is manageable to collect in full, and the parts lists show which of the theme's dark-coloured and spooky elements you might already own. The minifigures, with their vampires, ghosts and zombies, also mix well with other horror-flavoured figures.
