    I really liked those models as a kid, and always wanted to get one. But then again, I had a weird skeleton fetish when I was a boy, it was always my favourite "monster". I had one of those life size, cardboard, articulated Halloween skeletons hanging on my bedroom door all year around.

    I have a small collection of these guys going. I try to pick up the ones I see for less than $10 at flea markets and yardsales, only have the visible woman with the original 60's skillcraft box. I had about 5 or 6 but somehow my stupid cats knocked them off there shelf and they get damaged pretty easily, so now I'm down to two.

    There is one of these models in the background of the Medical Center set in a season one episode of Space:1999. I think "Breakaway," but I'm not 100% sure.

  6. Got this one also w/ box. I have a feeling your looking into our attic!

    Neat!

    I had tons of anatomical kits when I was a kid. Lifelike put out a bunch. I remember the toughest part of building these two was that they used staples as the joints, and it was tricky to get them to say in place while you glued the bones together around them.

    Revel did a 1/1 scale head like this too. I called him Iggy.

    I've always been curious about these kits, but have never owned or built one.

    I did put together Revell's life-size human skull once, and turned it into a zombie head by adding a ping pong ball eyeball and skin made from crushed corn flakes mixed with liquid latex.. I was a creepy teenager.

    Oh then, what's this? Big flashy lighty thing, that's what brought me here! Big flashy lighty things have got me written all over them. Not actually. But give me time. And a crayon.
