Post your DP The Masks (or replicas)
Here is my son wearing the Replica I made some time back, he’s the same age I was when I got mine from Oriental Trading Post years ago.

Do you sell these by any chance? cause you should!
Technically yes, I had this copy up for sale for a long time on Facebook, but no buyers, so it has just lived in my collection since.

That’s really nice
Thanks for the kind words everyone. Also gonna keep this going by showing my childhood The Mask that this copy Was based on:

Nice! Love the replica, would be cool if replicas of The Mask can be made. Here’s a crappy phone picture of The Mask that I owned briefly. Gave it to AHG when he offered trades of making one of his masks for some things he was looking for
Mike and I were talking about this copy last summer! Replicas can definitely be made, and I really don’t care to finish them for a little of nothing, it’s just the blank being $125-150 makes them a hard sell, I just don’t think many people want to pay $175-200 for a DP the Mask replica. This one has a patched neck rip, so I think I was asking $150 for it when I had it for sale (basically the same thing I paid Darren for the blank)

Oh cool! I can see why that amount would be tough to sell considering its a Don Post The Mask, people would rather spend the extra $100 or more for an accurate Myers mask instead. I personally don’t see it too far of a stretch considering how much I’ve seen original The Masks go for on eBay, especially ones in good condition, but that could very well be an eBay thing too
I currently have 2 don post 85’s, one is a mint tagged 89 version, and the other is a 85/86 version that I am working on restoring. I’ll post pics of them once I’m done with the 85/86.
My first Myers Mask. Got this off Ebay in the 90’s. It was my first ebay purchase and it was in terrible condition. The hair was mostly missing and it had pen scribbles all over it.
Did my best to restore it.
Very solid!

Great job!
