Barnabas 1969

Barnabas 1969-recently completed...Jonathan Frid as Barnabas Collins from the original TV series "Dark Shadows"...this is the original MPC kit with the greatly improved Cult Of Personality Productions replacement head...not totally happy with the eyes but they look pretty good in person...didn't glue his head on in case I get a wild hair and decide to repaint them...the base is something I just blobbed out to set him on temporarily until he takes his final resting place on the big 10+ figure Vampire diorama I'm building....several pictures here under a variety of lighting conditions...MPC marketed the original kit as 1:8 scale, but in truth is more like 1:9 scale

Wall Of Shame-Amazon Prime

I don't rant often....but when I do, it's because I've been badly mishandled...Just an alert-for those of you wasting your money on Amazon prime accounts...the words GUARANTEED TWO DAY DELIVERY...mean absolutely nothing...they can't guarantee anything because they aren't in charge of the delivery...and if your stuff is four or five days later than the two days they've promised, that's your problem...glad I was only paying for Amazon Prime month to month...it made it much easier to cancel and I'm not stuck with having paid them a bunch of money up front...I've had much better luck with eBay...and I've always had things delivered by the "delivery by" date...I'm sticking with eBay...no monthly prime fee, everything is cheaper even with paid shipping, items arrive by the time promised... kind of a no brainier but I had to live and learn I guess...to sum up...Amazon sucks!
