Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    You just made me wet my pants a tiny, tiny bit (but if anyone asks I'll just say i put a wet nickel in my pocket!) Hooray!! I used to collect auroras and have always wanted these kits but the prices were too high. In fact they are in the very rare category of things that ebay has not affected the value of at all. Hell, resin copies of monster scene kits sell for hundreds and thats just not right. So now I can buy them AND have the pleasure of building them... you sir, have just made my day!

      I've purchased a Captain Action model from Moebius. I will purchase others as well. I'd like to see the B9 Robot from Lost in Space in 1/6.

            I bought (and built) the Moebius Jekyll & Hyde kit. The quality was excellent. Great fit on the parts.

                    That looks like some cool stuff! Wonder what the size is on those? Could I pop a mego Dorothy in that cage?

                      ....Monster Scenes.....? MONSTER SCENES?!?!?!

                      And they've even got the Giant Insect! I have a resin recast of that ome! SUPER-Rare, even though I can remember going through four or five of 'em when I was a kid! WOOOHOOOO!!!! (No Vampirella though.....)

                      ANd no, they're a bit too small for Mego figures. The characters are 4 or 5 inches tall.

                        These are cool and it's great news. I know the guy that runs the company. He's had some of this stuff in the works since day one. Glad the cat's outa the bag. I've known about this stuff for a long time. He's got plenty of goodies to come.

                        No Vampirella tho. Harris will not let anyone release the old Monster Scene kit. They've never liked it.

                        The hanging cage is too small for 8" megos. All of the MS figures are about 4" to 5" tall like Don said. It would be easy to build a cage like that for megos.

                            >I know the guy that runs the company.

                            Any word on how much they'll be; and how distirbuted they're gonna be? I've been looking to finish my set for a while now. (And are they considering doing releases of some of the add ons folks have done over the years; like the Scream Queen and recovered Dungeon and Animal Pit? I have a resin Animal Pit and it goes together kinda funny....)

                            >No Vampirella tho. Harris will not let anyone release the old Monster Scene kit. They've never liked it.

                            I can see that. It was kinda rigid and generic; given the mold making capabilities of the day.

                            >It would be easy to build a cage like that for megos.

                            ....how did he know.....? The cage is an easy one. So would the Pendulum if I had one to plan off of. The fanged rabbit is trickier; but I was gonna try a scaled stuffed animal one.

                            He he heee.... monster scenes....

                              i have a buddy that has the big frankie along with about 40 kits from aurora . I remember him telling me he even had the original plastic wrap inside the boxes. I saw the big frankey and it is incredible. Wish i could buy them all from him but he's not selling..lol
