Description
 
1964 saw Martin Luther King win the Nobel Peace Prize, the Warren Commission claim Oswald acted alone in the Kennedy assassination, the Beatles invade America, and Aurora issue the Dr. Jekyll as Mr. Hyde plastic kit! TV had The Munsters, Bewitched, The Addams Family, and Universal Monster movies. Monstermania had infected the culture, and Aurora model kits were the cure!

Jump forward to 2007…. The good Doctor is back, reissued by Moebius Models! Flash back to those great days of the 60’s by building this newly retooled kit! Fit and finish are drastically improved, as well as clear lab equipment to make it more realistic! Packaging is as close to Aurora as possible, Moebius has used the same glued on type label box as Aurora to make this a truly vintage looking kit.

Kit requires glue and paint for assembly and final finishing. Recommended for collectors and hobbyists 15 and older.
Newly retooled head included with each order!

Challenging but fun January 13, 2010
Reviewer: Robert Beach from Norfolk, VA United States  
I found the kit engineering interesting & different from most models I've built. "Partial shell" parts combine to build the full figure. For example, the "shirt" is a partial front closing off the lab coat. Therefore part alignment is critical, increasing the kit's difficulty inspite of a low parts count. The builder must also use imagination w/ the construction sequence as the instructions are pretty basic. One nice aspect is the plastic allows for detail carving, like thinning out the collars, scribing hair and opening up pockets. The rat esp. looks good w/ a thinned tail & engraved hair but the base wood grain is overdone-used CA glue to coat, then sanded to generate "dust", then recoated/ sanded 4/ 5 times. Two dings were a hollow head & awkward left arm pose. Scrap sheet plastic used for teeth & tongue but still working on arm-may just cut apart & re-assemble? Overall, not a beginner's kit-might get frustrated w/ tricky shell assembly-but still like it for challenges & coolness.

Amazing job Moebius November 7, 2009
Reviewer: John Cannella from West Babylon, NY  
back in '07, I never imagined that Dr. Jekyll as Mr. Hyde would reappear back on the model circuit after a 30+ year hiatus.  But seeing the kit again, and already building figure kits again.  Thanks, and a huge thanks fo producing the Invisible Man kit, goes perfectly well with my other Aurora monster kits.
