I collected a couple of these 'vintage' kits during my time in the US. Recently found their website and wow - nostalgia kicks in. Now, come on admit it.... you've got some in your stash - yes?

I think one of the very first models I built was one of those Aurora kits of monsters with optional glow in the dark parts. I had several but The Witch was what started it. After that, I remember King Kong, The Forgotten Prisoner and Frankenstein. I may have to see if they can still be found. They were great fun, I recall.
