It almost doesn’t seem fair to talk about Monster Toys and not bring up one of the most popular and influential of them all, the Aurora Monster kits. So today’s update is a look at the 1975 Aurora Glow in the Dark Classic Movie Monsters Catalog. As an added bonus we have shots from the collection of Charlie Balicki including boxed and built up versions of these classic items.
Have a spooooky weekend folks!

Wow, the memories these things bring back. I can still smell the glue.
My brother and I had most of these glow models. I remember we’d get a laugh out of the randomness of which parts glowed: If I recall correctly, you’d turn out the lights on Godzilla and see his spikes and one of his hands glowing! We’d wonder why they wouldn’t just make the whole thing glow. But there’s no denying they looked awesome!
