She looks as if she had one too many.

That's the trouble with these online dating sites...

I came across this ad in a copy of Our Fighting Forces from 1971. To my knowledge, these kits never made it across the pond to the U.K. I'm sure @tv horror can put us right on that , come his return, or of course if anyone else knows?

By the looks of it, they have re-issued them.

I knew of the GK comics......

    

    

Never read them though, nor seen the show! any views on either?

the tv show was a daytime soap opera,, it was on during the day when i was in school ,.. the only thing i can remember is that every time i was able to watch it (during the summer or if i was off from school) of the dozen or so shows i watched  i never saw the vampire ...

Quite similar in some ways as to how my ex-wife turned up for her alimony... (Just kidding).

 

One of the greatest horror movies from the fifties I love this movie and the story was inspired by my favorite author M.R.James.

i hope you didn't sink your life savings into these

Thankfully that's one "collectable?" I missed, a few years ago I stopped buying multiple Frankenstein monsters Dracula's and Wolfmen and have just concentrated on things I like and now my collection is more streamlined which I enjoy.

Top of my Hammer Horrors....

 

I have to agree it's one of the better Hammers and Charles Gray was marvelous in the role of Mocarta I've always enjoyed his acting. Did you know that he found fame as being the voice for Jack Hawkins when he lost his voice through cancer, another fine actor.

Yes I have the full run it took me many years to hunt them down, however I'm not fussy on condition so long as they were complete.

Yes they have been re-issued and were quite unusual at the time as they were model kits with flexible arms I had known about this show for years but as I lived in the U.K I never got to see the series until the early nineties when the Sc-fi channel broadcast them. I loved it as it was so hokey and because it was videoed live there were a lot of bloopers. In fact the thinking at the time was that it was never going to be repeated again (that's what they thought lol). My favourite toy from the series was the 12" action figures. Although I have to confess that I was in love with Lara Parker she is one beautiful lady of course she also played the villain yes another BAD girl "It's my only weakness!" It also had a successful comic series that has just been reprinted.

Thanks for that TVH. I didn't think it had aired in this country at the time. Sounds bad enough to be good from what you and @1950's war comics have to say about it

I used to possess this in 2nd edition (Charity shop find), with the same hessian covers as for the 1st edition, and as rarely found, so still as valuable as a first edition. I sold it to a mate, at mate's rates: Ever wished you hadn't done something !

Something to watch for later....
