Hi UMA Folks,
Universal Monsters are my favorite subject when it comes to collecting and building resin kits.
This here took me 14 years to hunt one down: "Igor "from Resin from the Grave,
sculpted by Randy Bowen. After some failed Ebay auctions, ridiculous prices and
sold "as a set only (with a real bad sculpted Frankenstein)" I finally scored one at past Wonderfest.
And a decent casting to boot.
As far as I know, back in the days he was sculpted as a companion to Billikens Frankenstein Monster.
Ok - sheepskin is missing (apologises), but here is a little Photoshop first.....

Thanks for looking,

Nice to see another Clubhouser here. Great build. I've had a few of those, with Frankenstein and the huge base. Unfortunately, I was tempted buy the money to sell them- wish I didn't. That's a nice kit!
That's not Ygor. That's a Mike Thomas model! :)
I have this kit. I painted his clothes day-glow orange and call him, "Crossing Guard Ygor".

HA!! That's priceless!! :D :D
If I heard correctly, Resin from the Grave has once again risen from the grave. Mike Fosella is back again? Can someone confirm this? And if so, what future kits has he announced?
Love that crossing guard!! Yes, it looks like Fosella's Resin From the Grave is back.......resinfromthegrave.tv

He's back, but we'll see how long that lasts. I sold a lot of kits for him a few years ago. He's a nice guy and all, but his paranoia will eventually overcome him. If there's something you want, I'd get it now, before the Mike loses the motivation and the stuff again goes the way of the dinosaurs. And buy from jmdeary and make sure he has the kit in question in his hands, with all the parts. I spent some time at Mike F.'s place, and we'll just say I thought I was in the Twilight Zone and remaking The Old Dark House, :). Like I said, Mike is a nice guy, but the stories....
