Together they could almost pass for the Seven Deadly Sins, lol!
'All excellent copies of those characters, good enough to have
appeared on that 1980 catalog page themselves. 'Fun post, S.R.
That's rad!!!
I love that Tor Johnson.
Good stuff, but like mas-a-lot mentioned thats the 80 catalog. Still need a couple for 79.😉 Side fun fact in 1980 the 800 Werewolf switch over to the light brown "Chewbacca" paint scheme.
At least no Vermillion so its still humanly possible to acheive in 2022.

oops guess it is a 1980 catalog, the bottom of the page says 1979 copyright so that confused me, i do have all the masks in that 800 line pic you showed:

no Vermillion Skull except a bootleg someone made, it was only $30 so not too bad for the price:

Nice set, regardless of the year! I've toyed with the idea of tracking down a Post Tor mask, but I have the much newer Death Studios version so never put in the effort. Maybe some day.
Thanks for keeping them "alive".

a little update to my 800 Line set
'Looks like you found a DP original at last, no eyes but what the hell.
It was always my favorite of all their Skull masks. As a kid, I used to
call mine "Masque of the Red Death". Congratulations, SpinalRemains.
yea the ones with eyes are cooler, but these are so rare at this point im happy to get one :laugh:
Dont think ive ever seen a blood skull with a snaggletooth.
