Perhaps his most famous roles were on Star Trek and The Munsters 

He played monsters on The Outer Limits, too. Son Robert was "Pickman's Model" on a Night Gallery episode.

Did you know that the Gremlin was played by Burt Lancaster's former catcher from the Circus Nick Cravat? 

 

For some reason I always thought Janos Prohaska played that part. Thanks for the correction!

Father? No. Sugar Daddy? Maybe?   (She married the boss.)

I believe that the fans of these characters are getting older by the day the so called Baby boomer generation and the fanbase is falling (death illness old age). It's not doing the owners any favours as they will soon be forgotten by the current generation Karloff Lugosi Chaney who?   

It's like trying to tell Susan Hart (Nicholson) to sell the DVD rights to her AIP films. She ain't getting any younger and neither are the fans of her movies, but she's still holding out for a figure that no one is interested in paying. 

Found the TZ sketch somewhere else, in case anybody was having trouble.

If you liked the original you'll love this take on a classic Twilight zone episode.

 

Unavailable in my country? Aww, I wanted to see that one!

So, this is where you get your name.

I never even heard of it. Over here, "Beano" is something you put on your food so you don't fart.

That is the joke. 

I thought Heston actually said it. It was in "quotes".

He doesn't have the mask on, yet, Chuck. Sheesh!

Wow is that the going price, I would imagine that the paint pots would have dried up by now or at the very least evaporated. So would it still be mint?  Then you would also have to be careful it's the real deal as it would be very easy to fake. Why it just so happens I have a few thousand in my back shed, tell you what Mike, seeing as I know you I'll let you have one for 5K, interested? 

 

If you've got one of those "can't tell it from a real thing" fakes, I'll take it off your hands (for considerably less than 10K, of course).

Are these U.K. editions?

Not read any, so cannot comment on whether they're faithful or not to the films, but I'm sure someone will know.... @tv horror, or @Mike Scott

I haven't read any of them, either. E. K. Leyton is Harris.

More of the monsters paint-by-numbers box art.

Aha I found ONE although it's the wrong type of Easter egg (video game) however it is a cool drawing.

 

Swipe from this Monsters of the Movies cover.

In case you've never seen it, here's about 3 min. of the MUNSTERS episode.

I'm waiting to see some reviews from fans.

It's like looking at a Mugshot parade, there's some nice ones there thanks Mike.

The two pics at the start of row 2 are an example of those "original mold" masks.

I'll let you into a little secret only between you and me. I had planned to get a scuba suit and glue little rubber scales all over the suit then add the claws and feet finally topping it off with a lifelike mask, it was going to be my pet project.

 

The original used a body stocking with the foam pieces glued on. Much easier to get into than diving suit.
