Coming later in 2025 is an all new kit of Frank Frazetta's Dracula Meets The Wolfman. The model is sculpted by Jeff Yagher, based on the Frazetta cover art for Creepy #7 back in February 1966. I've been told this is a large kit with two figures and the big base.

I did a quick build up of the new Konga kit from Monarch Models. I really enjoyed the model. Much like the old Aurora kits, it was a quick, simple build. I decided to focus on the figure and a few simple tricks to improve the model.
