Aurora Model MIB 1969 Glow
Godzilla 1st Complete Unstarted
Listing is for a Aurora Model MIB 1969 Glow Godzilla 1st Complete
Unstarted.
The Glow Series
After the success of the original monster kits in the early and mid
1960's, Aurora must have needed to jazz up the line a bit - they did this
by introducing the "Glow in the Dark" series of kits in 1969.
Technically, the glow kits had their birth with the "Frightening
Lightening" series - basically the long box kits with a lightning bolt
running across the box lid and glow parts added...however, the series
didn't use the 'Glow in the Dark' tag line until the introduction of the
square boxed kits late in 1969. These 'square boxed' kits were the
same artwork - cropped to now fit a square format - with 'glow'
highlights added. These "1st issue" boxes are identified by the
copyright (1969 :) ) and are a "solid" box format (ie the box is firmer
than the later issues and cannot be folded).
Aurora's Godzilla Go, go, go - Godzilla! Ok, it would be better with music, but
imagine me humming it.
All original Aurora Godzilla 1st issue 1969 Glow in the Dark kit.
Complete. Unstarted. Too cool!
