    Ben Cooper costumes

    I just love'em for sure. For Ben Cooper costumes I like all the superheroes and all those odd ones too. I bought several over the years and of course all the star wars and it's fun to surf through the EBAy listings and see all the great ones out there.
    I just bought an ALIEN one and the same guy as a POTA's one too. looks good but will get one maybe after Christmas.
    There is several BEATLES and SPOCK costumes and last week there was a great THOR one that was buy it now at 350.00 (anyone got insight on why so high)
    Costumes are one of those items that are just good looking. I plan on framing the ALIEN one with my ALIEN autographs and the same with others. I would like ot get the POTA's to frame with my Heston graph//but later..

    Anyone got extra BC's laying around they want to get rid of let me know

    I love Ben Cooper costumes. I just sold a '66 Superman this week.

    Anyway, hands down my favorite Ben Cooper costume:

          I also have thought about collecting them. I almost bid on a Spiderman a couple weeks ago. I would love to get a Godzilla one, back in the good ol' days I went as Godzilla a couple years in a row. Oh and if I start collecting Batman is a must!

          A local store here in town had tons of them from the 80's that they sold off when they went out of business in the mid 90's. I think the guy who bought them got like 150 of them for about $65 or so

                  I just bought a Ben Cooper Catalog, paid a lot more than I'm used to for it but these things are just such a part of my childhood.

                      Those costumes are great. I love the superhero ones and the monster ones. On more than one occasion I've come across good deals on boxed specimens only to pass them up because I just can't delve into yet another hobby yet! I would definitely want to collect them boxed because those boxes are great, a huge part of my memories of these are seeing all the boxes stacked up every Halloween and rifling through them to find ones I wanted.

                        yeah me too. I've gotten the ones of things i collect like all the SW , MASH , cartoon characters and a few others . They are cheap out of season. I wouldn't pay that much for them but they are cool.
                        I did pay 75.00 each for a Revenge ofthe Jedi Ackbar and Gamorrean Guard ones back several years ago. Still looking at framing them with for my house .
