                        Is there a kit out there - either wood or plastic? I guess I'll scratchbuild from plans if I have to, but I'd prefer a kit as the baseline. Please advise.

                        Pat Tritle drew up some plans for the Orca. He also has a line of model airplane kits. So a kit of the Orca isn't beyond reason. Try contacting Pat and see if there is anything more than the plans available.

                        Thanks Umi and Dirk. I checked out Pat's website and it's great. 

                        Dirk, a very cool dio and model. Give me some idea of how you built it.

                        I'd love to say I built it but I can't. I purchased it from McFarlane Toys, Spawn.com. I've had it on my shelf for over 4 years now and it never fails to attract someones attention.

                        It's part of the Movies and Monsters collecion. I also have the King Kong and THE MCKENZIE BROTHERS Dio.
