Sneak peek: ‘Nosferatu’ from Monarch Models
Fans of plastic figure model kits have been unhappy since the buyout of the Polar Lights company led to the end of that company’s figure-kit production, but there’s hope on the horizon in the form of Monarch Models.
I’ve been in touch with Monarch’s Scott McKillop to ask about the new company, which expects to have its first offering — “Nosferatu,” designed by Gary Makatura and co-designed and sculpted by Jeff Yagher — on store shelves in about a year.
I’m slowly putting together a story to run sometime later this month, but just today I got some photos Scott said I could share now: Yagher’s sketch of the character, and his sculpture. The kit is designed to complement the classic Aurora monster models and I, as a biased reporter in this case, can’t help being impressed.
Like I said, more details coming later this month.
