First I want to publicly thank Chad (WarlocK) for all of his information and help recently. There are several different versions of this mask including two different sculpts from DPS, several recasts, etc. When I located this mask Chad was a great deal of help as he knew the details of the real deal to help me in this purchase. Thanks again, Chad! You are the king of HalloweeN III mask wisdom.
Here is a LEGIT 1982 Don Post Studios Pumpkin Head mask! The mask is copyrighted both by Don Post Studios as well as Dino de Laurentiis . The eyes are screened and the paint job looks stellar for such an old mask in original condition. The latex is is perfect condition with no dry rot or tears. I never wanted a recast of this mask so it was just far out to find one of the original Post masks.
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing these great pics, it’s not every day you see one of those bad boys, especially in THAT kind of mint condition. I call second dibs behind Jon if you ever part with it. Congradulations man, he’s a beauty to be sure!
That P’head looks to be in very very good condition… that’s a rarity nowadays, as you rarely ever even see these pop up.
No problem at all helping you out w/ the information Josh… I’m pretty obsessed w/ the H3 masks and take in all the info I can on them.
Congrats on that score! Oh and sell me your Moonfan. Thx!
You’ve been after that MoonFan for too long! I’m glad to see someone else like him as much as me. He’s certainly better than any other Dracula DP put out in my opinion. Being that it was sculpted by Pat Newman it looks terrific with the rest of her masks.
