The Aurora monster models started everything. That whole monster craze that started in the 60s , it was all about Famous Monsters Magazine, the monster movies on TV and the Aurora Monster Models. Those will always be the greatest monster models of all time.

I absolutely adored this episode. I have a show where we go through the original Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine. I just inherited my late father's monster collection. Would love to chit chat at all things Monsters. I have 4 of the models in this. The draculas drag, wolfmans wagon, Frankenstein's car and the girl in the cage. Thank you again for sharing!

I had all of the Aurora Monster Kits when I was a kid, and have many of the re-issues since then. I also had most of the Monster Scenes Kits (with Dr. Deadly and The Pendulum), and a majority of the Prehistoric Scenes Kits. I had all of the Planet of the Apes models except for the Gorilla Soldier on Horseback. I had an assortment of dinosaur/caveman models from various companies. I still love to build/paint monster models, and my skills have improved vastly over the decades. I also had quite the collection of monster magazines when I was a kid, all lost through time, and I’m proud to be a current contributor (illustrations and articles) for Scary Monsters Magazine. I even wrote an article about building/painting monster kits that was published in Scary Monsters titled BE A MODEL CITIZEN!

@kimwestwood88402 жыл бұрын
I was a kid in the 60's and had the Frankenstein, Wolfman, Dracula, and Superman Aurora models. I would glue them together, do the painting down in the basement so it was sort of creepy but fun. I am sure today these would pricey but if I remember I think they were under 5 bucks back in the day.

I am SO HAPPY i found your Channel! im a *MASSIVE* Monster/Horror Fan and Collector, and i had no idea these even existed! i looked for them on Ebay and found out Polar Lights Re-Released these Model Kits not too long ago, and you can get the ENTIRE LINE of the Haunted Mansion "or now Haunted Manor" for around $60 USD! so i did JUST THAT! of course the Boxes for the 1970s Disney Versions look *A COUNTRY MILE COOLER* but i want to Assemble/Paint and Display these. so paying only around $15 to $20 each for them was far better of a choice. but my favorite by a mile is the Grave Robbers Reward, and Play it Again, Sam. those two are just so cool! i also got clued off while looking for these, about "The Strange Change" Model Kits of a Vampire and Mummy. so i had to get those too! i absolutely love the Gimmicks to them! my Mom "God rest her Soul" would have loved these too. she absolutely loved Horror as well. especially Hammer Horror movies.

Those Haunted Mansion models are really cool. I never came across them in my monster phase from the early 70's but those may have been discontinued by then. On the Bride of Frankenstein... I thought I had all the Aurora Universal monster model kids but apparently not. I never saw her, Dracula's daughter, or the Invisible Man in the model store that I went to. And no ads for them in the magazines that I had. All the others I saw but not those. They must have been discontinued by then. I did catch some of the 60's stuff but by the time I started getting those models it may have been the next series. They still had the glow pieces though. I was just too young to start my monster phase in the early 60's.... but I still had fun with what I had. The 70's toys were awesome too.

Hey Cindy, if you could email me some pictures I am a strong buyer on them, eBay takes huge cuts these days as far as their fees so I could always pay you directly if you wanted. I’d love to see what you found it sounds really interesting, you can email me if you like rudymunis@att.net

How do you remove paint from a plastic or vinyl model without damaging the plastic?
@RudysWorldOfficial2 жыл бұрын
Hey there my local hobby shop sells a liquid that comes in a jar for stripping plastic models, however a good friend of mine told me easy off oven cleaner works great. I haven’t tried it yet but he said put the model in a paper bag and spray it and the paint will eventually all come off. I’m gonna test it out on a cheap model or just a part and see what happens. Check online though there may actually be other products out there in the model world. I can’t remember what brand my jar was but it seemed alcohol-based possibly, it definitely never damage the models whatsoever
