I do have the model kit of the "Time Tunnel Complex". I spent
$250 for this piece of junk (it was the last one in a mail order
catalogue from Star Tech a few years ago). It is indeed the
one you see pictured, however it's VERY disappointing. ALL
it is is an oval shaped "tunnel" approximately 5" deep X 2"
wide made out of brown plastic. It consists of two
pieces, a top and a bottom that you glue together to form the
"tunnel." When you do that, there are paper stickers that you
put inside to SIMULATE the black and white sections of the
tunnel. It sits on a silly plastic stand and there is a way of
taking a strip of film (supplied) and putting it in the tunnel
with a lite bulb behind it to simulate a picture in the image
area. No consoles, no towers, no computer banks, no
nothing. I was very disappointed. The picture on the box is
the same publicity picture of the complex with Doug and
Ann, suggesting that you have a kit of the complex. THAT
would have been worth the $250 I shelled out. THAT was
what I had been hoping for. At one convention a few years
ago, someone was asking $1000 for this kit. I did a better job
25 years ago with styrofoam sections that I cut out myself,
painted and lit with Christmas lights.
