I can't access the catalog through your link, probably due to our old system here,
but you mentioned "Bayshore" in your subject line. Do you mean to imply that
the "Bayshore Zombie" mask is in their catalog this year? How crazy awesome!

I recently had occasion to see production samples  of two favorites
from this year's catalog.

The Shock Monster  from their "Chamber of Horrors" series is a rework
of an earlier version by Nightowl Productions, pictured here >

The original was scanned, remolded, and clay-pressed for additional sculpting.
They're mass-produced in China but if this sample is any indication of quality,
I may have to find room for yet another Shock Monster  in my collection.

I also got an upclose look at the new ERIK  mask >

No mold on Don Post's first ERIK from 1977 was ever found
so this new version was sculpted, larger than before, using
pictures and an old production copy as reference >

Don't tell DP I said so but this ToTS version is
even better than the '77 original !
