So what exactly is that "powdered flesh" composed of? Cornstarch?

My guess is just plaster......plaster-of-paris or whatever that crafty powder is that solids up when mixed with water.

Maybe those little paper flakes they use for papier mache?

Freddie...hi! I got it for $306.87. I've seen em for more, and wasn't really expecting to win the auction on Evil-Bay. The thing is, I meticulously viewed the guy's pictures, which were not arranged to best display what the set had with it. Once I realized it basically had all parts just not photographed well I was in! He even displayed the critical Flesh Powder cardboard locker upside-down with the bag of powered flesh setting on it....you couldn't see the graphics!.
I think the pics turned a lot of possible bidders off. I feel I got lucky on this one.....definitely used, Freddie, but nice enough when the parts are properly placed in the box. Heck I could even tell the hank of hair was unused, but just was shown as an additional loose item in the last pic...

Here's the one mold I forgot to get on before.....and the box bottom. Top of box is graphics of long-haired shrunken head with fangs...bottom of box is a loose interpretation of Frankenstein. So as not to disturb the contents I balanced the set on two chair backs and crawled underneath to take the shot....anything for my monster buddies.....ha!
