Hairy, Scary Monsters from Collegeville

Hairy, Scary Monsters from Collegeville

1982 saw the Universal monsters depart Ben Cooper and move over to Collegeville for a glorious rebranding. The monster were all given weaves, gorgeous new packaging and Collegeville even added the Metaluna Mutant to the mix.


This Friday’s Pod Stallions is all about Store Bought Costumes of yore, hope you’ll check it out.

    Once again, lots of monster costumes, yet the Clown is the most unsettling one.

    Love the Metaluna Mutant.
