Blowmolds and Halloween. Great combo. ;D

Yeah the blowmolds are in great shape, just no lights with them, but thats OK. The wanted a quarter for each of the smaller lights and the jack o lantern bucket and 2 bucks for the big pumpkin but they gave it to me for a buck just to get rid of it!! SOLD!!!
Crazy am I? We'll see if I'm crazy or not!

good haul. Although if "Wolfen" is the same movie i think it is I've never been a fan. But cool cover art though.

Those masks are great! It looks like you had a monster filled week. I love that freaky Tiki!
Wolfen is ok.....it's a lot better than that Jack Nicholson wolf movie- hahahaha!

here's this weeks. Found this cool costume that says universal 63 on it but man it smells like smoke and nastyness. Any recommendations of how to clean this vintage costume with out damaging it? looks like part of it is a felt based material and the rest is old nylon.

Shake or brush off as much of the smoke residue you safely can - depending on the delicacy of the fabric.

I find repeated applications of Ozium or Fabreze work quite well to eliminate the odor.  Don't expect the smell to go away with only one treatment - AND DON'T SATURATE THE MATERIAL - It can cause wrinkling and desolve the smoke particles, causing brown stains to appear.

I have heard bucket of kitty litter, put item in bucket (maybe use a grate of some sort to avoid direct contact), cover bucket. YMMV  :o

i'm pretty sure washing it is out of the question? By the way does anyone know who made this or the mask that goes with it? I've never seen it before.

part of me wants to see if the gentle cyle would work for it? I didn't notice the smell until today. lots of smoke and grease and a few stains.

Thanks, Tiki mask was only thing out of three masks is still brand new because it came with the card attached to it.

I think that Wolfen is a decent movie, I just watched it today. Only problem with it is that it feels too much like CSI stuff and other kind of boring stuff going on in the first half of the movie, however last half makes up for it. I can't blame somebody for putting it down while watching first half, I was able to survive first half just fine before watching last half part. I mean that showdown between main character and a pack of wolves was just epic! I thought ending was good too.

I really hadn't watch Wolf yet, I did heard that original script actually never have any real werewolf stuff in it until studio want it to be included. I think it was put there mostly due to money making brainstorming meetings.

Nice! It really do look same expect for the eye color. My wolf mask wasn't part of this haul, I was just wearing it for fun while showing werewolf items here. I actually got from car show swap meet with my dad about three years ago, it was still brand-new when I bought it until I used it for halloween two times in a row.

It was only werewolf mask from the box filled with all same copies of werewolf masks that is not all bent and out of shape sitting under the big tent filled of old halloween masks, costumes, and other horror junk.
