Mold-A-Rama
January 12, 2007
Just whipping around e-bay and found a Donald Duck wax figure which they say was created in a Mold-A-Rama device. So I looked up Mold-A-Rama on google and found some awesome stuff.
Here’s the site where I lifted the images above from.
Anyone remember using one of these machines?

Unfortunately I don’t, but I did find a few sites that looked like they were trying to sell a machine.

I remember using those every time I went to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. Man they smelled!

The Pacific Science Center in Seattle just got four machines. a butterfly, Gemini capsule, orca, and a t-rex.

At the Brookfield Zoo near Chicago they have at least a dozen different animals, quite possibly more. They cost $1.50. I’m a frequent Brookfield Zoo visitor so consequently i have all of them =)
