Here we have a resin model kit, 1/8 scale of Bris Karloff and the Monster he played. Titled "Boris Karloff: A Tribute". Sculpted by Mike Hill, and released through Fifth Sense Models. It was sold in an illustrated box, and has a numbered certificate. This is #37 of 200. Painted by noted Ohio modeler, Wayne Helton.
Released by Creatures UK, 1/6 scale model kit. Sculpted by the late Simon Laurens I believe. Very Limited run, and somewhat hard to acquire these days. Released in mid 1990's. Unknown painter.
A Netherworld release. Cast in resin, slightly larger than 1/6 scale. Sculpted by Paul Komoda. Early 1990's release, prior to Price's passing. I used to have the box and instructions sheet, but they were damaged/destroyed in a roof collapse. The title of the piece officially is "Vincent Price: The Corman Years". My nametag and base were all scratched up from the collapse as well. The missus saved Vincent Price when the ceiling came tumbling down. I got a replacement brass plate made, and slapped it on a larger piece of marble. It's a really nice kit. I am unsure who painted this one, as I sent it off. for paint and assembly. It might have been Paul Gill, but I honestly cannot recall.
