Clinton Frankenstein bucket

[skully]

Unreal!  The popularity of these buckets seems to be really increasing.  With the rarity of the other forms of this piece, namely the speaker head and the lamp, just the fact that a bucket comes along a bit more frequently might be the reason behind increased bidding because the price of the speaker and lamp are usually so much higher and of course not listed as often.

Wow. Admittedly, this appears to be a well-done repro that goes the extra mile

And it is very clear about what it is-- to his credit he doesn't try to disguise the listing as a vintage item

But I am still surprised at the price this is reaching:

I never saw the Buy-It-Now.  First time I saw it, there was already a bid.

Guess the initial bidder is kicking himself right about now.  (I wouldn't be, I don't think it is worth $75.00.)

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes... 
The dead rising from the grave!
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

[Monsters For Sale]

...I had mine [Speaker Head Repro] in the garage for years and years before I finally dug it out and made a mold of it to sell copies and then a guy starts selling copies within the same week!  Oh well.  We'll see.... 

You now get to claim gloating rights.

I was checking out the bidding on the 1st Bucket that ended at $560.00 - and the current bidding on the 2nd Bucket's auction that is still active.

The next to high bidder on the closed auction ($550.00) is the current leading bidder in the open auction.  That could mean that anyone wanting to beat him out in this one will have to pay as much as the first winner.

Hmmm.

Adam, I was looking at the 2 resin auctions as well and its the same 2 bidders.    Could it be they are in cahoots to drive up the auction to make it more desirable?  I mean these are molds and certainly the owners WILL MAKE MORE.       I am with you on the Hmmmmms.

PS I have 4 of the Renzi Skull Buckets and paid well for them so yes... "Insane, am I?  I'll show you who's Insane!"

[ilikemonsters]

I'm amazed what these repos are selling for i wouldn't drop more than a hundred bucks for that.
I'm surprised we haven't seen a 3d print yet. I was contemplating buying a bucket and off setting the cost selling some repops
but I thought I'd have to sell 15 or 20 to get my money back not 1 or 2
