I built a 1/25 scale model of that long ago...

I built the model of this one when I was a kid.

That’s a model of the original Dragula from the Munsters TV show.

The picture I posted is actually one of five created in 1964 for the show. It was the last to be sold at the Mecum auction in 2021.

My bad, I’ve seen some made after the show ended even one by George and his son, but was only familiar with one actually made for the show.
Keith Dean, whose father Dick worked for George, has the mold and makes reproductions of the original from the show.
