Rubber monster mask collection on Flickr

In the vein of Coop's obsessive Flickr photoset of his Japanese monster toy collection, here's a gallery from a collector who has done a bang-up job of cataloging over 100 rubber monster masks. Coop says: "Fans of Famous Monsters will remember some of 'em from those great ads in the back of the magazine." Link

Awesome set! You might also like to see these horror-themed animated props. Some of them cost almost $30,000, but they are scary/cool.

Regards,

Monster masks are cool, but you can't wear them all the time, as demonstrated in this music video by one of the writers of Futurama and Arrested Development: Link

I want all of these, and am prepared to challenge the writers of any show that you canot wear them all the time.

I was wondering why I had a bazillion new Flickr contacts yesterday. Thanks for profiling my obsession!
