In the 70's Dave Cockrum was hired by Aurora to make some concept drawings for models which would be produced into plastic kits. Dave drew many kits that were then sculpted into patterns. This pattern, The Mutant, was sculpted by Ray Meyers. Unfortunately this is as far as Aurora took The Mutant. The pattern would have then been used to make injection molds. Then finally to make styrene plastic kits. The sculpted pattern was either at HMS Associates in Pennsylvania or Aurora West Hempstead? In 1999 someone got a hold of some Aurora patterns then sold them on eBay. In 2001 the buyer of The Mutant pattern along with a good mold maker took the pattern and made resin copies part for part except the eyes. They were left in the head. The left foot was also missing so a copy of the right foot was made to replace it. The pattern did not have a base to display the kit. A few of the re-cast Mutant resin kits did have separate eyes re-cast. It was also going to be a snap-together kit if Aurora produced it. In 2016 someone took 1 of the resin kits and made a steel mold for it with a base to make styrene plastic kit Over 40 years later this kit is now available in STYRENE *****Remember this is a rare kit. . BUILT UP IS JUST FOR REFERENCE
