Just wanted to post here with a very public THANK YOU! to Chris for the Hunchback nameplate he has provided for my PL kit. I couldn't bring myself to build the kit with the proxy PL name and courtesy of Chris's kindness and generosity, old Quasi has regained the title he should have always had!
The casting is superb and a perfect fit with minimal tidy up.
Cheers Chris!

Bruce and Robert, you're welcome guys .
I'm gonna go through all the molds I've done so far and see which ones are still usable. I'll post a list in a week or so....

That's what I like to hear Don!! 
I'm still looking for the cape cord myself so if I ever find one I'll cast it up for you and PhantomII.

Need Aurora parts
Hello Lads,
I am new here and I like what I see.
I don't know if it has been requested, but I am in need of 2 each of the ring and spider from the Dracula kit, I need two ropes belts from the Wolman, and of course the famous missing palm tree parts for 2 King Kong kits.
I have restored two Kong's using a few parts from the Polar Lights kits, but still short the palm tree parts.
I would be more than glad to contribute to the cause, be it cash or time or what have you.
I have been restoring a full run of the monster Aurora kits, and doing two each.
I remember buying the Frankenstein kit on the day of release in 1961, and I won first place in the Aurora Famous Monster contest at two different sponsor hobby stores. I wish I still had the certificates and the plaque, I also got a letter from Famous Monsters and two free issues. Man I wish I still had that letter.
Thanks,
Donald Bowman
Mr. Monster

Hi Donald,
Welcome to Hobbytalk mate  .
Unfortunately the ring and spider are well glued to my Drac kit, and my Wolfman has the rope glued solidly too.
I have the Monogram Luminators Kong so I don't have the missing parts either. If you can find someone willing to loan or sell you the Kong parts, I'd be more than happy to cast them and offer them around to complete everyones kits....
Cash is no good here- you just have to need the parts to complete kits .

Thanks to the generosity of Mickey D, I have Zorros cape cord in my possession!!  Thanks Michael- it's very much appreciated.
I know there's a few guys who need that part so I'll be casting it up this week. If anyone else needs it, please let me know.

Glad to help Chris. You have helped me and many others complete their Aurora kits so I for one consider you the ultimate Aurora Guru. I hope I can continue to help you in the future.
To everyone else out there that Chris has helped (and I know a lot of you have done your share of helping him also) the Aurora modelling world has never had such a great friend!!!!!
Michael
