    I'm proud of my kids this year, it's the first time I didn't spend the majority of the day doing the little details of the kits. They followed through with the entire project to the point where my daughter demanded I didn't touch up her kit.

      That's a cool tradition Brian.
      I let some of the boys from the group home I was working at do some of my models last year, and while they turned out horribly (I honestly wasn't much help), it was a lot of fun.

        Awesome Brian! I've said it before, but you inspired me to do the same with my son, and now he has a Frakenstein, Mummy and Dracula on his shelf. This year we're working on his favorite monster, The Wolfman!

        Dani is enjoying painting random rats, skulls and spiders from the Polar Lights accessory kits.

          Nice job, they paint models better than I do! I threatened to steal this idea in my post from three years ago, and this might be the year I give it a try.

            That's a pretty fun tradition you and your kids have Brian. And their technique is improving every year!

              Very cool--I wish they would reissue Phantom. I love how your family is involved--even after 60 years, Aurora rules!

              (BTW, what's the diff. between the original & new Drac heads?)

                ^Is it de-Lugosied?

                (Yes, Bela Jr. that's a legal term.)

                  I have the same kit, and yes, the new head looks less Lugosi-like. It still has a twinge of Bela in there. More so than the Diamond/EMCE ReMego figure.

                    There is a European look about the new head that works in conjunction with the Universal trademarks to give it a Bela quality.
