MPC Strange Change Vampire

Here’s the MPC FunDimensions “Strange Change” Vampire. The “Watch it Change” mechanism is a wind-up deal with rubber bands. In practice, I found that the fit of the kit was way too poor for the close the lid/open it again and-it’s changed-from-a-hideous-corpse -to-a-sinister-vampire gimmick to really work as advertised. I’d be afraid to have so much torque on the rubber bands that rapid rotation would damage the figures. However, I can change them manually, as you see in the photos.




Oh wow, that’s cool! I’ve seen these before but never painted by someone this well.

Wow that brings back memories! It was a great time being a kid back in the day, when there were a lot of these “action models”! (When modeling was carefree and fun.)

I love the weathing you did on the coffin! [Y]

Thanks! Speaking of nostalgia, the instructions actually say, at one point, “Have Dad bend the wire for you.” [:)]

I like the little scorpions (?) or corpse bugs on the skeleton. [:)] Nice touch.
