Here's the MPC FunDimensions "Strange Change" Vampire. The "Watch it Change" mechanism is a wind-up deal with rubber bands. In practice, I found that the fit of the kit was way too poor for the close the lid/open it again and-it's changed-from-a-hideous-corpse -to-a-sinister-vampire gimmick to really work as advertised. I'd be afraid to have so much torque on the rubber bands that rapid rotation would damage the figures. However, I can change them manually, as you see in the photos.

Re: MPC Strange Change Vampire
Very cool.
This is the first time I have ever seen the kit built-up.
And you did a great job with it.
Thanks for sharing.

Re: MPC Strange Change Vampire
Glad they reissued this kit. its a bit sentimental,it's the first
kit I remember doing with my dad. Going to build it with my kids and then give it to him on Father's Day.

The instructions even say "Have Dad bend the wire for you."
