  1. That Asteroids mask is pretty damn freaky! What a weird way to go. Oh, and love the make-over you did on the banner logo!

    1. Thanks, Shawn! Already planning my Christmas banner! And yes, that Asteroids mask is probably the weirdest of them all. Although that Bamm Bamm is pure nightmare fuel.

  2. Ha, you must have found the same site I did years ago. I know I have these pics saved somewhere in my Halloween archives.

    The banner is awesome. Maybe consider leaving the skull in there on the regular version? That'd make a kickass skateboard graphic...says the guy whose only skateboard knowledge is from Tony Hawk games.

    1. Yeah, I've seen these costume pics pop up here and there over the years. I fully admit that I'm being Mr. Lazy-Pants by posting them all over again, but whatever. They're fun to look at and talk about.

      Thanks for the kind words on the banner! I'll leave the skull in if we ever get around to starting a Dork Horde motorcycle gang. ;)

  3. I'd totally buy that Attack of the Killer Tomatoes mask if I saw it in stores!

  4. That Mr. T brings back memories of school dress up day, A Team was hot and only one kid could score one of those. That asteroid costume is f'd up....it looks like soggy Cheerios. Check out Topless Robots pic of it...creepy...

  6. Baboon Man? Who? What company? Was this a thing? But really the star is Space Sentinels. Mother fucking Space Sentinels?! I have a DVD set of it I found at the Christmas Tree Store for maybe 3 dollars. And I thought that was the extent of merchandise that existed for this property. So help me if you post a Ulysses 31 costume tomorrow.
