| If you are
unfamiliar with these model kits, then you are
probably wondering why I have devoted such a
large section of my website to them.
The Prehistoric Scenes
are a line of 17 models produced by the Aurora
model company. (the same one that made all
the monster models back then)
They were released between 1971-1975.
They are all snap
together construction with interlocking bases.
Which means you can display the models next to
each other. If you are lucky enough to gather
them all, you can make a huge diorama.
They also feature moveable parts and optional
pieces so you can decide how you want to build
yours and how you want to see it displayed.
The originals were produced in bright colors
fitting to the subject (more
or less)
So, you don't
even have to paint them to display them.
Which made them perfect for kids in the early
70's. Which was before action figures really came
about. So these were fun to collect, build, and
play with.
