Had all the monsters. Loved 'em all!Also had the knights, the gladiators, the men from UNCLE, Bond and Oddjob, the Addams Family house and a host of other oddities. Used to bug me, tho, that reading the code on the side of the box told me they were 99¢ in the US, while I was paying $1.99 in Canada!!

Spock, of course, had tucked-into-the-boots trouser cuffs, the beginnings of a frustration that has haunted me ever since!

Bill,
My older brother had the King Kong and Godzilla models with the optional glow in the dark parts.
The glow head and fins of Godzilla and the glow head and Fay Wray of Kong kept me up at night.

My favorite three monsters were represented in the Aurora line - Creature, Godzilla and Kong. Loved the little snakes and critters included in the Kong kit - Kong was even standing and squishing a lizard beneath his foot!

I had the models of the Creature, Frankenstein's monster, Batman, and Superman.
Oddly enough, my assembled version of the Creature was nowhere near as god as Bryan's picture above!

Me neither. It was Revell, AMT or Monogram but no Aurora.
