CHILLER THEATRE'S SPRING 2001 EXPO SHOW (Page Three) Some
kits that caught my eye were a kool Shadow Creature, along with a nicely painted
Vorlon, from the Babylon 5 TV series. A
small, sweeeeeet Batman figure looked pretty impressive as well. Tom Parker
(alias Bwain) had a Godzilla (or "Bwain-zilla") out on display, which included
his replacement head and hand. Mark
also had a couple of entries entered in the Professional Category: a very nicely
painted Lou Ferrigno Hulk, along with a nice Mighty Joe
Young. My
Personal Best, though, was a large scaled, scratch built diorama of a Boris
Karloff Mummy, along with some miscellaneous props from the movie scene. I
really admired the quality of that display, right down to the realistic nail
heads sticking out of the wooden floor. I
finished taking pictures of the remaining models, adding some shots of the
artwork that had been entered. Then,
I went to shoot the breeze with Buc and Diceman. Buc commented on how he had
already been down to the Vendor’s area and had already spent a whole lot of
money. One of his acquisitions was a very finely sculpted Green Arrow figure.
Since comic book characters are my favorite type of figures, I made a mental
note to keep my eyes opened for that piece. I
picked up a copy of the latest Model Maniacs Magazine and then headed back to
the seminar room. (Back to the "Shows & Other Sites" Page) Copyright © 2008 Anthony I. Wootson. No material may be
