Show off your Weekly Finds.

[Monsters For Sale]

Hey, that's a nice haul!  And all in one day!

The boxes look to be in great shape.

Send a note to the company politely telling them to send you the missing paint and instructions. Don't curse them out. Just send them your address, thank them and say you'll be waiting.

You do know these were made during the craft craze of the middle 70's?

Plaster casting and figure painting shops sprang up in every other shopping center.  Everyone was making candles, making macrame junk, doing leather work and had glass bottle cutters, etc.  Places like Michael's Crafts were having a boom time.

It was kinda fun.

Yay. I FINALLY have a weekly find to show!

I've been looking for an "affordable" Frankenstein Sharpener for years.

No Adam..........it was EXTREMELY fun! My mom always had us doing crafts when we were kids. I gotta get on the ball with my brood.

And you're using what for the job?

I'm using oven cleaner.  I heated up the head and flexed it a little and a lot of the paint fell off.  Then I used the oven cleaner.  I still have some more paint to remove but I've gotten about 90% of the paint off.

Well if they're going to be like that I guess he'll just have to send them a death threat instead.

here's my weeks finds. A Mad Monster which i thought was told it worked but sadly is broken. A Dark Shadows model which i think is original a repo Nutty Mad , a MPC figure and last but not least a Original Spook Show poster.

Working or not, that's still a very nice display piece. Great finds, H101.

Ya it is still cool. Just disappointed but hey i only paid $20 for him. i wonder what it would cost to repair? His batter box needs new connectors and one of his levers needs reattached. It's my fault for not checking the batter box I was in a hurry at toy show.

[Toy Ranch]

At $20 you are into it great. The repair would probably cost more than the value of that piece in it's condition, but I think it is worth $40 or more not working, and a pro repair would be well over $100.  Nice scores!!!

Wow.  Great haul!  I love those spook show posters.  Congrats!

Probably $100 to $200, depending on condition.  I would have bought that Blushing Frankenstein 20 out of 20 times for $20.

I am going to say between, 60 to 100. That is what I payed for some of mine. Depending on condition.
