    Whole-Head Horror Masks! Collect them all!



    Oh man, in me lurks a mask hoarder that I keep locked up deep down. This image ain't helping.

    I remember this ad. I like the "Space Creature" Darth Vader ripoff. It would be so fun to complete a ripoff costume and cosplay as that.

      Back in the 80's I had a full head Mister T mask

      Man, I loved that thing

      Even got a Styrofoam wig head to display it on.

        Love that Frankenstein, almost looks like Chaney Jr. as Franky.

          ^Yes, it does look like Chaney Jr. Even has that mole near his nose.

          Are these Don Post or Topstone? I'm thinking the skull is Don Post, because isn't that the basis for one of the Halloween III masks?

            I wish I had room to display all my masks.
            I treat myself to at least one new one every year for Halloween.
            I'm north of 25 at this point. This pic is from a couple years ago.


            Which doesn't include my budding Iron Maiden mask collection.

              I don't think I've ever seen any of those Eddie masks. Those are awesome!

                Great looking collection! You should check out any local hairdressing schools around you, as they practice on manikin heads and once they get the hair really short, they arent useful any longer so you probably could get some for free. They would be good for putting the masks over.

                  I remember that ad, and many similar ones.
                  Here's another one I recall being captivated by as a kid:

                    ^Old vampire looks like Old Barnabas from Dark Shadows, and Dracula is looking quite a bit like Chris Lee there!

                      ^--- Vampire is definitely Christopher Lee

                      also like the King Kong ... looks nothing like Kong but would make a great Soldier Ape

                        Definitely, as soon as I looked at it, Soldier Ape came to mind.

                          Excellent and wonderful masks!

                          We had the 'Whole-Head' Spock and Hulk masks.
