KONGTOBER 18 — 1976 King Kong “Astride Towers” jigsaw puzzle

Here’s another jigsaw puzzle from the 1976 King Kong movie, called “Astride Towers.” This puzzle has 150 pieces, and measures 14″ x 10″ when complete. The puzzle was produced by HG Toys, Inc. in 1976 to celebrate the Dino De Laurentiis film.

I love the look of this box on the shelf! What are you looking at Kong?

“Don’t be alarmed, ladies and gentlemen. Those chains are made of chrome steel.” All month long, I will be showing off King Kong collectibles from my personal collection in a series called KONGTOBER, so if you’re a fan of King Kong and movie monsters, I think you’re going to like what you see.
