Transformers Generations Collaborative: Universal Monsters Dracula Mash-Up, Draculus, Ages 8 and Up

Product Information

Guinea worm is on target to be the second infectious disease of humans to be eradicated, after smallpox. It was formerly endemic to a wide swath of Africa and Eurasia; as of 2023, it remains endemic in 5 countries: Chad, Mali, South Sudan, Angola and Ethiopia, [6] with most cases in Chad. Guinea worm spread to Angola c. 2018, and it is now considered endemic there. Infection of domestic dogs is a serious complication in Chad.

D.medinensis L1 larvae are found in fresh water, where they are ingested by copepods (small crustaceans) of the genus Cyclops. Within the copepod, the D.medinensis larvae develop to an infective L3 stage within 14days. [9] When the infected copepod is ingested by a mammalian host drinking unfiltered water, the copepod is then dissolved by stomach acid and dies and the D.medinensis larvae are released and migrate through the wall of the mammalian intestine, and enter the abdominal cavity and retro-peritoneal space, where they mature into adults. After maturing and mating within the host, the males die and females (length 70–120cm) migrate in subcutaneous tissue towards the skin's surface. Around a year after the infection, the female causes the formation of a blister on the skin's surface, generally on the lower extremities, though occasionally on the hand or scrotum. When the blister ruptures, the female slowly emerges over the course of several days or weeks. [9] This causes extreme pain and irritation to the host. During those few days to hours before the worm exits the skin, the person may develop a fever, pain, or swelling in that area. When the host — in an attempt to alleviate the excruciating burning pain — submerges the affected body part in water, the female releases thousands of larvae into the water. From here, the larvae infect copepods, continuing the life cycle. [9] After the worm exits the skin the wound caused by the emerging worm often develops a secondary bacterial infection. Permanent damage can occur if the infection goes untreated around a joint. Most cases occur in areas without access to health care facilities.

Noggin rides again', Arts Guardian, 28 July 2014; An interview with Peter Firmin by Julia Raeside. Firmin also recalled how his children helped him name some of the characters (e.g., Nooka of the Nooks came from his daughter talking about the film Nanook of the North) Currently, Dracunculus is not considered invasive in the USA.

Inspired By Dracula: The Draculus figure converts into bat mode in 23 steps and features deco and details inspired by the 1931 Universal Pictures Dracula movie Transformers robots have always been — More Than Meets the Eye — but now, through the Transformers Collaborative, fans can experience these larger than life characters as they team-up, mash-up, and meet up with other characters, teams, and people who share this same special quality. While I feel like Draculus is just too specific and odd (with the cape and all) to fit in with the "regular" G1 canon, I feel like Frankentron actually kinda works. I love to imagine him as the Decepticon equivalent to Ratchet. MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE: Transformers robots have always been More Than Meets the Eye. Now fans can experience Transformers characters as they mash-up with iconic characters who share this same quality Plant Characteristics: Dracunculus showcases dramatic burgundy spathes. It is a striking choice for adding visual interest to gardens.
