I was so into these costumes when I grew up that when Spirit Halloween released their Vintage monsters collection, I had to get them. They are currently on my wall..😂👍🦇
I had one of the Halco Frankenstein masks (sold without the costume) around 1963 and the sculpt seemed to be taken from the life cast of Glen Strange in makeup for Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein. I foolishly cut it up in an attempt to make my I own Frankenstein headpiece and lost the pieces, though I did make a plaster of paris mold of it-- also lost.
You had one in 1963?? Wow! That’s awesome!!! Yeah they used the Glenn Strange as a template for a lot of monster kid toys ! I love your story about the head piece though. That’s great! I also dabbled in making my own monster makeup! It’s funny you mention Abbot and Costello meet Frankenstein as Halco also made a Wolf Man costume in 1963 and that was clearly based on A&C meet Frankenstein!
Awesome video - love all these vintage Frankenstein items, this encourages me to seek out these for my own collection much thanks.

They are works of art , aren't they?
Omega Man intro music, spontaneous Vincent Price appearances, impeccable taste in art...one of the best channels on youtube.

Frankenstein eh?
Yeah, I have a few. 🎃
@@doctordurantssanctum1977 Well, keep at it, slugger, someday that's going to be an impressive collection (tussles hair way too aggressively)
@@BrickMantooth Aw shucks!
I miss the old monster comics. 😪
@@BlackAdder1970 same my friend! I loved them too!
@@doctordurantssanctum1977 I was born in 1970. So I was kinda in that era
@@BlackAdder1970 I’m from that era as well! It was a great time to be a Monster Kid!
@doctordurantssanctum1977 Most definitely!
I still have my Remco Monsters, but sadly, not the monsterizer.
