Moonshadow- That is a sweet little figure! And it sounds like you had a perfect day  :)
horror1o1- You are blowing my mind with all your weekly finds! Those costumes are amazing! You must have quite a collection  :)  Are you displaying them together, or framing them? I need to start shopping where you go!

Nice paper lanterns.  What are their sizes?  Where did you find them?

Local grocery store.  I believe you can find them on line for $12 or so.  I will look around for you.

Here are some things I picked up from AllHallowsEve.  After I bought this stuff, I guess some folks here started tearing into him a bit, questioning him and stuff.  I'm really happy with everything.

Quoteedit:  Just to clarify...  Richard was not one of "some folks".



And some of the stuff I got from Andy at MaskFest.  I hear that someone was telling people that he doesn't have anything good left, so sorry for posting toys that aren't good. I have some other stuff too, but it's also not good.  Andy has a bunch of other stuff in his collection that is also no good, so don't bother asking Andy about anything because none of his toys are any good.

I stopped in to a garage sale this afternoon and hit the jackpot! A buncha Empire Halloween blowmolds-got the whole lot for $1.75! I love these vintage Halloween blowmolds so much. We had a ton of them when I was a kid.

They're all nice; the big guy is a later piece, as well as the JOL bucket.  But your best find was this ghost with JOL.  It's a bit harder to find.

here's some halloween goodies my Mom bought for me. She knew i was worried about my dr's visit.

I really like the costumes, but never found too many of those.  I don't know the Frankenstein diecut on the left, cool as it is, but the larger cat is Eureka (first issued 1964, produced for several years) the poseable smaller cat in front is Beistle first issued in the late 1970s, and the Dracula face is Eureka probably first issued in 1981 and available for several years.  In my old apartment, 25 years ago, I would dangle the Dracula face by a thread in between the little bathroom window proper and the storm window behind it... as if he were peering in while you took a pee...  ;D   Sometimes the wind would rattle the windows in that old house and he'd move around as if examining the occupant.  A favorite of mine.

Charp this year has been pretty good to me so far and it's still early. I don't really have that many costumes and mask. Maybe 10 or so? As far as where i go I'm actually just picking it up here and there. I know a lot of people.lol;)

I'll wade in since you didn't get an answer.  Yes, there was a Dracula wallet.  On those examples, the flipside of Phantom is Frankenstein and flip of Creature is Wolfman.  I don't know if they ever mixed or matched monsters on these; if not, the flipside of Dracula would have been Mummy.

toyranch- Somehow I've missed seeing those party stirs before! They are so cool! I can imagine having a swinging party with those, back in the day. I'm gonna look them up, but do you know when they were made? You made some spectacular purchases! :)
