Oh yeah I forgot to post a pic of this. Its evidently the kids who owned all this stuff. Its an Officer Pressleys Junior traffic safety club award, by the American Trucking Industry. I thought it was cool to find, put a name to all the toys. (he must have got to travel alot there are pennants from several states and attractions. 22 pennants in all)

Hey all! Me and my other half were wandering around a local antique mall this afternoon and found a booth that sold nothing but vintage clothes, vinyl records and old (mostly monster) toys so we loaded up! These are our monster spoils...











The thing in the back is hard to get a shot of all of it without opening it up but its a kids birthday party set. I has monster paper cups, table cloths, paper plates, and napkins... I never got a UM party as a kid :-(

I love that "Monster Vampire" Frankenstein figure.  Cool!

[dlhenderson]

Frankenstein73, I think I spy a "K-Pop" gun in there with those monsters and Nutty Mads. That was a frequent give-away on The Popeye Club in Atlanta in the early 60's. The projectiles were ping-pong balls. Expulsion was initiated by the compression of air in the soft rubber device.

Yes, that is a k-pop gun, Good eye DL! It didn't have the original ball with it, but regular ping pong balls work just as well. I have been using my kids k-ponk ballsAnd man they really fly! That is a wicked gun!

[HorrorFan88]

Hey Guys,

I haven't been on here in FOREVER because my life has been extremely hectic, but I did happen to find something cool when I went to some garage sales a couple of weeks ago.....I'm sure most of you have this already, but I was extremely excited to find one in the middle of nowhere when I've been wanting one for a long long time!!

A Universal Monsters LUNCHBOX!!! I only paid $10 for this baby   Not in the best condition, but I could care less lol Also got a huge lot of Horror toys like Hellraiser etc that I can post up....not UM related, but that stuff is hard to find around here...

I really like those Dracula hangers!! I love when it starts getting close to Halloween cause you find all the cool stuff at the thriftstores and whatnot!

Frankenstein73,

I've never seen those Dracula Halloween decorations before. I love 'em! Do you know who made those and/or when they were produced? I love the greenish hue and the shadows on the pseudo Lugosi ones, but perhaps the most exciting thing is that the one in the middle looks exactly like Count Yorga (Robert Quarry)!

[HorrorFan88]

Here are the horror figures I got at a garage sale....this is mainly what I like to collect. Got everything pictured for $65!


Hellraiser Series 1 figures


Hellraiser Series 2 figures (missing Pinhead and the exclusive Wire Twins 2-pack)


Halloween Michael Myers/Dr. Loomis box set


Alien Queen box set


A Nightmare on Elm Street sticker album- got this as a freebie


18" Talking Pinhead figure


18" Talking Jason Voorhees figure *RARE*

[creaturerevenge]

Damn! That must have been one hell of a garage sale! All I ever see when I drive by garage sales are old, dirty toaster ovens and lamps with crooked shades!

[creaturerevenge]

These aren't really vintage but I thought I'd share them with you guys anyway, ordered these online about a week ago and they just now came...







Now if I can only find a place to hang 'em...

I hadnt ever seen them either! I couldnt believe what i was looking at when i found them. And they only cost me .10 cents a piece at the thrift store! I wouldve paid $15 a piece! The Yorga looking one is double sided has the perforated upc tag piece on it but the perforated tag piece above it that would have had the company name is gone. The Lugosis are double sided one side glossy and one side flat. They have the perforated tags on them and are manufactured by C.A. REED, one still had a price sticker on it at .69 cents. im guessing late 70's early 80's due to that price? I think the yorga one is similar enough in construction to assume its also made by C.A. REED.
