I kinda hate to bring this up, but as a writer with OCD I can't help it. The placement of the apostrophe indicates plural possessive, meaning the Gasser belongs to more than one Gorgo. "Gorgo's Gasser" would be the singular.

Awesome artwork and setup. And again, I apologize; my grandmother was an English teacher, so I didn't have a chance.

In Canada we were taught that placing the apostrophe between Gorgo and the S means 'is' as in Gorgo is in first place and that S- apostrophe was possessive as in the Gasser belongs to Gorgo...
.... but aside from that...Thanks for the compliment on what has been a real labor of love :thumbsup:

Oh. Well, never mind, then. And yes, it looks like it was a heck of a lot of work. Those labors of love are that way.

A Lesson in Gorgish

We're taught that also in the USA. Here are some examples of how it works here:




Gorgo's Gasser is ready to race!


This way means the Gasser belongs to Gorgo.




Gorgo's going to race his Gasser.


The apostrophe-s indicates a contraction of "Gorgo is".




Dr. Zaius' decision was to give "Bright Eyes" a lobotomy.
Dr. Zaius's decision was to give "Bright Eyes" a lobotomy.


Both are considered an acceptable way of showing a possessive form with words ending in 's'. The decision belongs to Dr. Zaius. The first form allows easier pronunciation.




Gorgos' design was entitled the Gasser.


A team of Gorgo beings created a design that was entitled the Gasser. The design belongs to more than one Gorgo.

Dennis - Just Awesome!!! I've just got to get Me one of those! I'm sure Scott M likes as well. Is the Box Art and Name Plate going to available??? Is the Box Art going to in the Aurora Fantasy (Monarch Fantasy) from D, Vaughn - I think known as Digital Master(spelling)?


I just think Gorgo's Gasser is a nice companion to the "Monster Rods"!

Thanks for Sharing

Massive stuff Denis! So much fun going on here and its very cool to see all the little details you've pack into this project. A great homage to Aurora as well as to Scott's Monarch!

Regards,
Matt

Remember, it's not just an obsession it's artwork!

 

[phrankenstign]

Is that a REAL Aurora Godzilla's Go Cart, or is it a repro box?

This one is a repo

When I was a kid, I used to watch Wacky Races every Saturday morning. The Gruesome Twosome was always fun to watch. It would've been great if all of Aurora's monster rods, the Phantom's Bantam, the Bride's Buggy, and Gorgo's Gasser could have been included in a special episode.


That cartoon was unusual in that it spawned two spin-offs: Dastardly and Muttley in their Flying Machines and The Perils of Penelope Pitstop.

Just picked up these 4 resin kits to complete my Monster Rod kits,
They go great with the Gorgos' Gasser and the rest of the Aurora Monster Rod series....

The Creature's Cruiser is an oddball in that it isn't a wheeled vehicle. I know the Creature is a sea creature, but I still prefer the Creature's Crate over that one. After all, he is a lung fish that can breathe on land. As a stand-alone one-off though, The Creature's Cruiser is a nice kit.
