The star-eyed lover, or "Starchild" is back on the scene.  - Back in 1972, Paul Stanley met Gene Simmons, Peter Criss and Ace Frehley, and the rest is history!

Back in 1999, Polar Lights released a model kit figure series based on the four members of KISS. The unique thing about these KISS model kits is the fact that they all combine to make an amazing diorama based on the 1976 Destroyer album art. There are four kits in total, but I only own 3 of them. They are Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley and Peter Criss. I am missing Ace.

There is a large poster included in each kit which ties the model kits together with the same background.  You only need one of the posters for the background, but you will need all four models to make up the scene. The good thing about that is that you get 3 spare posters in case you damage one or the sun fades one out. 

The Polar Lights Kiss Kiss Paul Stanley "Star Child" Model Kit came out in 1999 and was sculpted by a new sculptor names Patrick Delaney, who sculpted the Polar Lights Lon Chaney as The Phantom of the Opera kit (With the organ) and the famous Boris Karloff kit "Makeup Call". The Kiss figures are molded in 1/8th scale and would fit right in with the Aurora Monsters. 

The detail on the model kit pieces are very well executed with dragon scales on the boots, studs on the leather, and perfect likenesses of Paul Stanley. 

The parts fit together well and use a sort of "Snap Together" rod and hole design which will be good to glue the model kit together as you can put some Testor's Tube Glue down the holes and some liquid glue around the body seams to hold all the pieces together. 
This should be an easy kit to put together for the beginning figure modeler as well as for the KISS fan. 

The instructions on the Polar Lights Kiss Paul Stanley "Star Child" Model Kit are easy to follow and include a back story on how Gene Klein met Stanley Eisen back in the day and laid down the concept of KISS and how they wanted to play music together. Gene Klein changed his name to Gene Simmons and Stanley Eisen became Paul Stanley and Peter Criss and Ace Frehley joined up in 1972 and the rest is history! 

The instructions also include notes on painting your Kiss Paul Stanley "Star Child" Model Kit which are broken down into two panels - how to paint the Kiss makeup, hair face and skin and another panel on painting the leather costume and High Rise Elevator boots and metal studs that made The Starchild famous. 

To really get in the mood, make sure you listen to The Destroyer Album while you build this kit!
