SnapShot Review and Photos by Michael Garrett

I followed the adventures of the Munster family as a small boy back in the 60’s and when my daughter discovered the show she quickly became a fan of the ghoulish family too. So I decided it would make a great Christmas gift to give her a Munster Koach of her own.  Thanks to AMY this classic model has returned to the shelves for a whole new generation to enjoy!

For The Modeler: Tamiya gloss black was used for the main color with semi gloss black applied to the fabric areas on the top. The curtains were then brush painted and covered with a black wash to bring out the details. BMF was used for the bright trim. The inside is rather basic with only 5 parts including the interior tub. I painted the seats and inner panels Testors red and then covered them with a layer of flocking. The floor is painted flat black. All the chrome was covered with a layer “The Detailer” wash to tone it down a bit and bring out the details. This was a rather simple, but still fun build with only about 60 pieces in the kit. There was actually very little flash to clean-up considering that the molds are 40 plus years old now, however I did replace the kit supplied plastic tires with rubber ones from my parts box.
