The base does have what looks like it may be a button on top. The holes being on the base bottom explains why they aren't visible in the package. Maybe it was planned to have Lee Drac sound bites. Too bad that didn't happen. Christopher had that great commanding voice.

Definitely would have been interesting to have a Christopher Lee figure that.....talks.

A voice chip was planned. It was nixed by....legal issues. The figure almost didn't get produced for the self same legal issues. Ancient history now, but every one was talking about it when the figure was new/in planning stages. I think Lee's representatives, or possibly Lee himself, was involved in the legality of it if I remember correctly.

Another one for the monster game shelf.  In this one, you play as very classic tin toy esque maintenance robots on a space station.  The space station has begun to be overrun by gribbly creatures called creeps, who are looking for food, and the human crew is the food!  If a creep eats a person, they multiply into a new creep, so you want to avoid that at all costs.  Your goal is to fight off the creeps and get 28 humans to the escape pods before they are devoured. 

Lots of fun little figures in this one.

Well, back to the drawing board!

I just got a black screen. What you need is a file url. Should end in .jpg, or .gif, or similar.

So, I found this Distinctive Dummies 12 inch Plague of the Zombies figure at an antique mall I frequent. It was listed as a "Zombie Vampire" and they only wanted $39.99 for it. My mind was blown. This is a bigger steal than the time I found a 1984 Tsukuda Metaluna Mutant model being sold as a "Mars Attacks alien" for $20 in the same antique mall.

Sorry. I'm apparently too dumb to figure out how to embed Flickr photos. I tried. Numerous times.

The boys around here call it "The Black Lagoon"; a paradise. Only they say nobody has ever come back to prove it.

Apparently, you have to (at least) be a member to get a url for the photo.
