This was my first model, and it got Aurora into a bit of marketing trouble. I was six years old, and I thought I was buying a toy. Opening it up, it looked busted! My mom explained to me that I was expected to build and paint it. Even when I did all that, the model (right) looked nothing like the box art, which was a pastiche of Lon Chaney's 1941 "Wolfman" and Hammer's 1961 "Curse of the Werewolf". The artist, James Bama, was then told to use model prototypes for the next two models' box art, The Mummy and The Creature.

This is my 2023 buildup of the model. The Aurora Wolfman was my very first model - back in 1964, when I was six years old!

I went for warm colors this time, and also opted for olive-green pants.

The rope knot was missing from the 2000 buildup of the kit when I took this picture, but I've since replaced it.

This painting may still exist. The brouhaha over the "the stuff in the box doesn't look like the cover" resulted in Aurora hiring someone to do a totally new painting for the glow version in 1969, so this painting was spared.
