Much like my Aurora Godzilla Glow box, I always had a nostalgic desire to own an original Aurora Creature Glow box. I already owned several Creature reproduction kits in the tall and skinny box variations (like the earlier original Aurora kits), but since they had never reissued the Creature in the square Aurora-style box, the only way to go was to find an original.
Fortunately, like Godzilla, I found a great deal on a Creature box, along with a built-up, painted kit (in pieces). That's his head up in the top photo.
There have been some recent Aurora reissues with square boxes — the Mummy, the Wolfman, the Phantom, the Forgotten Prisoner, King Kong and Godzilla. And should they get around to reissuing a glow creature in a square box, you can rest assured that I'll add that to the collection too, as I've long wanted to rebuild a glow version of the original creature (almost as much as I'd love to build a glow Aurora Monsters of the Movies creature kit)!
Be sure to check back next week for another item from my Creature collection!
