Dr. Dreadmoor’s Castle


When I requested a reviewer sample of Lemax’s Dr. Dreadmoor’s Castle Spooky Town Halloween table decoration I based my request on a small photo of the castle.

At that time larger photographs were not available. I received the review sample and all I can say is, “Wow!’ There is no better word that I can use to describe just how impressive Dr. Dreadmoor’s Castle is.

There is so much going on with the castle: lighting, action, music and lots to look at.

It’s night, there’s a storm brewing, lightning flashes and there in the deep shadows you spot a building.

It’s a castle. It’s huge stone walls seem to beckon you to come closer. You walk up to the huge door and cautiously knock. Will someone or something answer?

It is a humongous castle! The castle sits on a segmented stone base that blends into the smaller stone masonry of the castle. Pumpkins, a skeleton and ooze populate the lower level.

Speaking of the stones that make up the castle. There is such a large variety and so many! Cobblestones, flat fascia stones, rough hewn tower stones with restraining metal bands, step stones and raw, unaltered foundation stones-some boulders. The castle sits upon a precipice of stone that the castle nestles into.

There are balconies, walkways, spiraling stairs with short railings, huge entry stone stairs, small stone-framed, multi-pane windows and doorways (I count 20).

A massive set of doors of wood with metal hinges is open revealing the crouched pumpkin on wooden legs and draped with vines. When the set is turned on the double door swings open and then shut as the pumpkin man comes from within. Above the door way is a light. Twin lights illuminate the heavy metal and wood, ten-pane windows on each side of the door.

Just right of the right window on the side of the castle is an alcove where a large electrical panel can be seen. It is filled with gauges and buttons along with power lines. A huge broken glass canister sits next to it, green ooze seeps from under it on to the stone floor.

The large second level of the castle has two mechanized and electrified transporter mechanisms with a large fly and a mad scientist in each. When activated the man and fly switch places in the heavy brass and metal transporter canisters as the triple blue light flicker.

In the middle of the castle is a large barred opening where two yellow eyes peer out, next to them is a chalkboard with schematics and calculations. Light flicker making the eyes look like they are opening and shutting-creepy! Above the eyes is an extended balcony where Dr. Dreadmoor’s library can be seen illuminated by lights.

Traveling upward in the middle of the high castle is another large opening covered by a gable roof. Three small round towers with four-pane windows decorate the upper portion.

On top of the heavy shingle roof is a platform with electrodes and wiring leading to a table holding a mummy-wrapped monster waiting for its next jolt of electricity. Turning on the power the monster is lowered and raised beneath two large metal doors that open and close.

To its right is a glass enclosed container of metal with green ooze inside. It is lit up. An eerie purple light fills in the gaps. Inside is a strange alien-like creature captured in the container’s ooze.

The chamber sits on a high tower. Part of the tower’s lower section is broken away. revealing a series of translucent tower conductors that glow.

Other features of the multi-tower unit include small vegetation and vines scattered on and about the castle. Decorative posters are near the entry way, a large centipede crawls on one of the windows. the roofs of the towers are purple wood and slat, Igor sits on the balcony on the left of the castle adjusting a glowing blue electrode, all the windows glow from inner lights, several spotlights are arranged around the entryways, a human skeleton sits next to main entryway sign, next to the sign is a Keep Out sign, the main door has large metal hinges and twin door knockers and metal railing sits beside the opening doors that reveal the mummy wrapped monster on the roof.

The units comes securely packed and strapped in a two-section form-fitted cardboard container inside a flip-lid box decorated with photos of the castle on all side. It’s an impressive Halloween display that kids, family, friends and visitors are sure to love.

The craftsmanship and imagination that went into the design of the castle is astounding. Graphic designers, artists, craftsmen, sculptors, package designers and printers-all of them did outstanding jobs creating and packaging the castle.

John 16:33These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

Space Trek

Mankind has speculated and wondered about space as far back as ancient times.

For thousands of years man has peered into the night sky and imagined, “What’s out there?’

What if man could travel to the stars? What would be the benefits? Is it possible to travel to distant planets and survive? What would we find? Is there life out there?

These are just a few of the questions posed.

In Space Trek The Endless Migration authors Jerome Clayton Glenn and George S. Robinson examine what man has accomplished is space so far-from the early space capsules, to the Space shuttle, space stations, the journey to the Moon and the preparations to travel to Mars.

Is it possible? What is the cost both financially and socially? Will mankind also take conflict to the stars?

All are viable questions and need to be answered. The book, published by Stackpole Classics /The Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group, Inc., provides some speculation, facts, photos and art examining the future of space travel and its lasting effects on mankind.

Deuteronomy 31:6Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Lion Trio 4

Three Mystery/Crime/Detective books for the price of one! Such a deal!

There is something alluring and compelling about the old Mystery/Crime/Detective books from the 1940s and 1950s.

The stories were real gut-wrenchers. There was no soft-peddling. There were bad guys and good guys-no blurring of the line between.

Sure, many followed a pretty set formula but if an author was good enough and if they really knew their chops they could use the formula to their advantage.

In Stark House Noir Classics' Lion Trio 4 three tales of Passion, Crime and Mystery set within the 1940s and 1950s grab you by the throat and won’t let go until you finish each tale.

In Act Of Violence, by Basil Heatter, ex-resistant fighter during World War II Tony has settled in New England with Eva.

Employed as ski instructor he has settled into his new profession but he still has a feeling of unease because he knows his past has made him a marked man.

He knows it, accepts it and expects his peaceful life to end violently one day-that is until he meets Lee, her brother and discovers a new reason to survive.

In Naked In The Dark by Paul Conant, the main character of the book is a little off-settling. Jim Stetson is a member of a movement that is dedicated to radical change. Eventually the group hopes to take over. Unfortunately a rival group has plans of their own and part of that plan is to see Jim dead.

They send their best ‘agents’ after him-all female. One-by-one they try to seduce him, persuade him or kill him. Will he survive the deadliest threat of all-seduction?

In My Gun, her Body by author Jeff Bogar, on a visit to a Florida town Jeff Bogar hopes to meet up with his old friend Mike McCullum-the only problem is-he’s nowhere to be found.

What Jeff does find is an abduction, a beating and near death.

He survives with a lust for revenge-with the help of Dinah. But is she a friend or a foe? Does her association with a local thug have anything to do with Mike’s disappearance?

Three tales-three tales of Intrigue, Suspense and Mystery. It’s good old-fashioned Crime and Mystery all wrapped up in a trio of stories. Embrace the dark and mysterious world of Crime Noir-there’s no telling what you might find in the shadows.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-11For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,

Star Trek Voyager Homecoming

After a long trip, a vacation, a business trip or an extended stay away from home it’s always a comfort to come home to familiar surroundings, friends and family.

Seven years-seven long years and the crew of Voyager, under the command of Captain Janeway, have come home after being trapped in the Delta Quadrant.

Voyager has arrived and most of the crew has left except for the command crew.

Just as they are about to disembark All of Voyager’s systems are taken over. The ship is hijacked along with her remaining crew. Masquerading as humans several Species 8472 have shanghaied the ship and crew in order to take Voyager back to the fluid universe of their species for judgment and preparations to invade Earth.

It’s up to Janeway and her crew to figure out how to stop the invasion and return home.

With the help of some unlikely comrades the Voyager crew face-off against Species 8472 in an all-out attempt to stop the invasion and return home.

Star Trek Voyager Homecoming, written by Susan Bridges and Tilly Bridges and artist Angel Hernandez, along with IDW Publishing, present the last exciting adventure for the crew of Voyager in a trade paperback collection of the 5-part mini-series.

It’s an exciting and unexpected, but perfectly logical, story of the returning crew of Voyager. With its compelling story, stellar art and gallery of covers it’s a Star Trek treat.

Isaiah 41:10Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Illustrated Catalogue Of Drawing Instruments

I love visiting art supply, office and craft stores to look at all the different types of drawing instruments for sale. 

Pencils, pens, compass sets, protractors, T-squares, triangles, templates-you name it-I can’t get enough of them.

Author John L. Lyles, RA’s and Astragal Press’s Illustrated Catalogue Of Drawing Instruments is jam-packed with photos and information about architect’s and engineer’s drawing instruments.

Besides being a full-color, photos guide the book also provides prices, manufacture information and much more.

I just love looking through its pages and examining all the drawing instruments that are both familiar and unfamiliar to me. There are so many items!

Marvel at the details, craftsmanship, engineering and manufacturing skill it took to create such accurate and precise drawing instruments.

You can’t help but be amazed at the sheer talent and precision that went into each piece.

Deuteronomy 20:4For the LORD your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.

Sakura Pavilion


I’ve always wanted to visit a Japanese pavilion-especially a pavilion surrounded by cherry trees in full bloom.

I’m not sure why. Maybe its the romanticism. Or perhaps the opportunity to visit another country and observe long-held traditions and a chance to visit the past.

Regardless, I think it would be so cool to walk up its steps, marvel at the incredible architecture and soak up the ambiance.

I can imagine myself under the shade of the pavilion’s overhanging roof, view some ancient ritual and smell the cherry blossoms.

Just look at the Rolife Sakura Pavilion’s setting among the twin, cherry blossom trees. Picture yourself walking on the upper or lower floor decks and marveling at the curved roofs, ancient steps, walkway railings and shuttered windows,

Examine the intricate details on the roof beams, floor slats, doorways and windows and the four-leg pedestal the pavilion rests upon.

Just feel the ancient spirits of the place and the centuries old traditions and rituals held within its walls.

It seems every time I look at any Rolife Kit once completed I keep finding more details. I am amazed at the attention to detail, 3D printing, color application, laser die-cutting and print quality.

Like with all of Rolife’s Kits be sure to have tweezers, a flat-head screwdriver, a pointed tool, a strong light, a magnifying device, liquid glue and a brush, an X-Acto knife and a lot of patience when assembling the Pavilion.


The Sakura Pavilion kit comes in a small box with a full-color photo of the Pavilion on its front. On the back of the box are recommendations and specs.

The kit is recommended for those 14 years old and older, consists of 235 pieces, requires no glue and should take about three hours to complete.

Inside the box are eight wooden slats in varying colors (browns and reddis, orange), Product Safety Instructions, an Icon Illustrations sheet and an Instruction sheet.

The Instruction sheet reminds me of the maps I used to get at garage stations. It folds out to a large size and like the maps presents a challenge to fold back to a smaller size. Boy, does that bring back memories!

The entire kit consists of wood and the various pieces that pop-out easily from their slats. Just follow the Instructions and never remove more parts than you need.

I suggest using a flat-head screwdriver to pop-out parts and tweezers to manipulate the smaller pieces.


The kit goes together easily but does require time, good eye-to-hand coordination and dexterity. I needed to use a magnifying glass for the smaller parts.

All the parts are numbered by slats and individual parts coinciding with the Instructions.

I started to build the kit and decided to wait until when my grand-kids come over so they can help me with it. Good family time.

Being as the kit consists of just wooden part slats it will be easier for them to help build it. Too many varying parts and they get confused. It should be fun.

The Fantastic Detective Notebook

I’m a child of the 1960s and 1970s although I was born in the mid-1950s. My mother was a reader-she read everything: Westerns, Crime/Detective, Science Fiction, Fantasy-you name-she read it.

I inherited my mom’s love of books, although I leaned more toward Fantasy, Science Fiction and Detective/Crime. I especially like when genres mixed it up and combined. For example Science Fiction and Crime novels.

It was the best of both worlds. I can’t begin to tell you how many of those types of books I read.

In Stark House Reference’s The Fantastic Detective Notebook, by Gary Lovisi, (originally published in a limited edition 40 years ago) I was able to look back at many of the novels of that mixed genre I read (some I was not familiar with) and get a quick lowdown on the authors of the books, see cover illustrations and paintings, the dates of publication, short story breakdowns and more.

What a delight-I’d forgotten so many of them! It was a real treat to see the covers reproduced in full-color and to recall some great stories.

For those who love a unique mixing of genres this book is a great reference source and visual treat.

Even better, the author has updated the book from is original version and has included more mixed genre books all the way up to present time.

What a great way to enjoy the past and present simultaneously!

Luna Knight Volume 1

A young woman tends her sister’s shop after her sister is gone when her shop burns down.

The young woman has a strange type of amnesia. She remembers bits and pieces of her life. Everything is a hodge-podge of jumbled images.

The people responsible for the shop burning down (it gets rebuilt) are part of a notorious gang who want to cash in on the shop’s location and property that are worth a pretty penny.

Almost everyday someone from the gang visits the shop trying to intimidate the young woman to vacate it.

Violence is threatened but never carried out-until one day. Big mistake.

When attacked and about to be killed the young woman jumps into action and quickly kills her assailants. After the melee, she is bewildered and confused as to how she was able to do so. How did she learn to use weapons and martial arts?.

Tensions escalate as the gang repeatedly comes after her only to be severely dealt with.

Desperate the gang leader sends a professional hit man to take care of the young woman but even he was not expecting her skills at killing.

In one last attempt another female ‘assassin’ is hired. Will she get the job done?

Luna Knight’s writer/artist Hiro Morino absolutely dazzles with  his incredible art. So much action, shown from so many angles! Motion lines blur as the young woman springs into action. The blood pours and the fighting action practically flies off the page. Luna Knight Volume 1, the Manga, comes courtesy of Seven Seas Entertainment.

Look for it, buy it, you won’t be disappointed.

Catherine's Living Room


Have you ever visited someone’s house and instantly felt at home? The decor, furniture and look of the rooms invite you to take a seat, get comfortable, flip through a book or magazine, maybe play a game of chess or checkers and enjoy the company of the home’s owner or fellow guest.

A comfy chair or couch, a small warm fireplace with crackling logs and bookcases stuffed with classics and periodicals give the place a real ‘welcome home’ feel.

Rolife’s Catherine’s Living Room kit looks like everyone’s dream living room.

Before I started building my Rolife Catherine’s Living Room kit I looked over the Instructions, made sure all the parts were in the kit, familiarized myself with how the completed kit would look and read over the specs on the slip cover of the Living Room kit.

The kit consists of paper, Plywood and plastic components best built by those 14 years old and older and has 284 pieces.

Like with all of Rolife’s kits be sure to have tweezers, a pointed tool, a strong light, a magnifying device, liquid glue and a brush, a Flathead screwdriver and an X-Acto knife. Tweezers and a Phillips head screwdriver are included. You have to bring your own patience, skill, eye-to-hand coordination and dexterity.

I looked over the electrical set-up and then tackled the floor and walls. The sections snapped together easily. When it came to putting in the windows and small parts since I had a hard time with the small double-sided tape strip I opted for a tape dispenser and when necessary a spot of Super Glue to affix small parts and windows.





Having large hands and diminishing dexterity I had a little problem assembling fold-in paper objects and stickers. But, with a little perseverance, tweezers, a pointed tool and a little glue all went well.

The furniture and fireplace went together easily, the lighting was much easier than I thought and the wall, floor and decor went together the fastest. The numbered Instructions with color illustrations really are a Godsend.

With its large overstuffed red leather couch, white and ornate fireplace with burning logs, cathedral windows, gold-leaf framed artwork, period clock and lamp with its ornate shade, small table with a chessboard and multiple book cases jammed with books it is the perfect room to kick back, languish under the brass and glass globe overhead light and wrap the black and white blanket over your legs.

A potted plant in a white floor vase, magazine holder, red and brown tile floor, glass-front cabinet with dishes, wall sconce with candle, framed art and photos decorating the wall and cabinets, small statues and vases, papered walls and wood trim windows and walls bring home the feeling of ‘you’re welcome here friend” to full bloom.

It amazes me that Rolife artists, craftsmen and designers are able to downsize in perfect scale their kits to match full-size rooms, homes and other objects.

All of Rolife’s miniatures are perfectly in scale, duplicate colors and textures and design surfaces like wall paper and packaging.

The Joy Of Hearing


For hundreds of years Biblical scholars have studied the Book Of Revelation in the New Testament of the Bible.

The book is filled with symbolism, prophecies, a description of the end times and warnings.

As with all scriptures scholars have argued over its context, what it means, when the prophecies will come true and so forth.

In author Thomas R. Schreiner’s classic Book Of Revelation study: The Joy Of Hearing, published by Crossway, he examines Revelation in-depth.

Cross referencing other scripture, revealing its history and examining its meanings, themes and purpose the author sheds light on the final book of the Bible.

The book delves deeply into the theology of the Book Of Revelation and clarifies many of the mysteries and unlocks the truth behind scripture.

Romans 15:13Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

Space Ghost Annual #1

As a young boy in the 1960s I (like so many other kids my age) glued myself to the TV set on Saturday morning-cartoon day.

Some of my favorite cartoons were produced by Hanna Barbera Studios and one of my absolute favorites from the studios was Space Ghost.

The show had a superhero, a space ship, kid sidekicks, a monkey, futuristic gadgets and bad guys-boy did it have some great bad guys.

Over the last several years Space Ghost has become popular in no small part due to the Space Ghost comic book series produced by Dynamite Entertainment.

And Dynamite has done Space Ghost proud. The series really captures the spirit of the animated series.

Space Ghost has his very own first annual courtesy of writer David Pepose and artist Jonathan Lau.

In Space Ghost Annual #1 Space Ghost must come face-to-face with himself as he struggles with doubt, responsibility and who he is.

When Space Ghost and his team tackle a couple of criminals it all seems cut and dry. But there is more to the criminal duo than Space Ghost realizes-something that reminds him of himself.

The story explores the man behind the Space Ghost mask and his inner struggles.

In a short prelude to an upcoming Space Ghost tale The Herculoids (another childhood favorite of mine) are briefly spotlighted.

This is a really fun story with great art, very insightful text and the colors, lettering and production make the Annual a hit.

Psalms 31:24Be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.

Great American Explorer Stories

I’ve always been an explorer. Even as a young kid I would venture out into the woods and walk for miles or get on my bike and ride the back roads. 

I wasn’t afraid-just curious. I still enjoy getting on my bike and riding for miles. I love to seek out back rooms in buildings, explore alleys and see what’s around the next corner.

In Lyons Press Classics and editor Cheney Gardner’s Great American Explorer Stories follow explorers' exploits during American’s past.

The book really brings the past American explorers alive. Readers learn about their struggles, preparations, triumphs, failures and how they coped with unexpected obstacles and danger.

Learn all about the amazing adventures of Theodore Roosevelt, Harriet Chalmers Adams, Lewis and Clark and many more intrepid explorers as they traveled the world to reveal its secrets, discover lost civilizations, traverse new pathways and make discoveries that would change the world.

Don your fedora, put on your leather jacket, secure your whip and get ready to go on adventures that would give Indiana Jones second thoughts.

Cheers Bar & Dining


I’ve never imbibed alcohol or taken any drug for that matter. I suppose it was because my dad was an alcoholic and died at an early age. I think my repulsion toward alcohol was a gift from God to keep me on the straight and narrow.

However, I do like a good meal and although I do not drink I have visited a few bars and grills. Most are family friendly, warm, cozy and intimate.

I can appreciate good food. Others may drink and that is their right.

In America we often associate bars and grills with strictly alcohol consumption. But, in other countries-say England, Ireland and Scotland, bars and grills are very much a family affair. Most restrict smoking and even welcome pets.

The first thing that caught my attention about Rolife’s Cheers Bar & Dining Bar kit was the incredible amount of color, texture and sheer volume of items in the kit.

At 312 pieces the kit takes a good 3 to 4 hours to complete. It’s not for a novice-14 years old and older individuals need to tackle this kit. That’s not to say that kids can’t be helped by adults or an older teen. But supervision is recommended. Made of paper, plywood and plastic the pieces are cut by laser, sculpted in 3D and fit together easily using tabs.

Several small tools are included. I recommend you look over the Instructions, review the contents of the kit before assembling and pay special attention to the lighting assembly. It can be a little daunting if you are unfamiliar with electrical set-ups. Not to worry-it uses batteries.

I like to start with the box itself. First I look at the photos on the slip cover so I can see what the completed kit will look like. I also review the recommendations, specifications and other information on the back of the box.

Contents are packed in plastic bags or shrink-wrapped. Take out only those parts necessary for each step of the kit construction. Save the bags. It’s easy to disassemble the kit, rebuild or share with someone else to build.

I started out first looking at the lighting set-up and then proceeded to got through the Instructions one step at a time. I assembled some small furniture and wouldn’t you know my clumsy old fingers busted a wooden table leg. I’m glad I had some glue on hand. Easy fix!

I used a magnifying glass to help my failing eyesight and tweezers when manipulating small parts as my coordination and eye-to-hand skills are fading.

Like with all of Rolife’s Kits be sure to have tweezers, a pointed tool, strong light, a magnifying device, a flat-head screwdriver, an X-Acto knife, liquid glue and a brush and a lot of patience when assembling the Cheers Bar & Dining.

I moved on to the wall and floor flats once most of the furnishing was done. It went together easily including the windows, doors and other wall decor.

Next the furnishings were arranged and then by adding the small objects that room really came alive. I’ve included photos of the various bottles, glasses, etc. spread out randomly on the kit’s floor.

Just look at the detail! I love the translucent and transparent variety of bottles and glasses.

I haven’t finished the kit yet but it is going together easily. With my schedule I grab a few minutes here and there. It really helps that the Instructions are broken down into sections. I can complete one phase and move onto the next when I have time.




Take your time, carefully place each object and before you know it you have a perfect miniature Cheers Bar & Dining miniature. Display on a bookcase, table, shelf-wherever yo like.

Talk about a lot of hooch! The Cheers Bar & Dining Kit has huge selection of alcoholic beverages, plenty of glassware and mugs, tons of wall decor including signs, small plagues, lighting, a mirror, and overhanging plant and light wood frames, lots of food and drinks on the wooden counter, a single small table with twin chairs, a bust on a pedestal, two entryways with signage and decor, tile and painted walls and even an old-time bicycle.

I love the free-form floor plan with its red and white, checkerboard floor, swing out door frame, upper rough stone wall and overhanging ceiling decor.

So many soothing colors and ambient lighting.

It seems like Rolife constantly adds new kits, puzzles and miniatures to its collection. As a graphic designer and artist I am impressed by the technical and artistic skill that goes into designing each kit.
