Here's another example of me messing up and not heeding the advice of a friend. When this statue was released back in 2002, it was recommended to me that I get it. But again, I wasn't into statues at the time and I passed. And unlike the Uncle Boris statue, I had to pay a premium to get it on the after market later.
Vampira, real name Maila Nurmi, was a TV horror host in the 1950s and generally regarded as the first in that tradition. Unfortunately, there's not much footage remaining from her show, but here's small clip.
Of course, she might be better known to modern audiences for her role in the 1959 camp classic Plan 9 From Outer Space...
