Official Friday the 13th

[BerringerX]

I still can't find that 7th Heavan thing. I hope it's not lost forever...

On a side note, I picked up the regular Mezco Jason over the weekend. It's pretty nifty.

[Dolemite]

Oh, it's out? I'll have to pick one up today.

this one was pretty neat, and it's mask came off.

Wait, this isn't a gag? Somewhere is a lost episode of 7th Heaven where Jason kills the cast?

[BerringerX]

It's not something that was made for the general public. It was made for the amusement of the cast. They wanted to do something a little different. Kind of like something that they would play at a wrap party. Just them having a little fun. I'm just trying to find the description of the episode, because no footage has ever leaked.

Also, here's the Mezco Jason firmly in my grasp:


Jason chooses... PSYDUCK


The whole family. Plus Arnold.

wow, the figure of his mom is pretty bad.

Nice collection, Berringer. I need to post a pic of my Jason stuff, including my newly-aquired FvJ Jason w/Teddy (he says hi, btw).

And here's some interesting tidbits for Jason fans...

First, if any of you guys live near Boone, North Carolina (I don't), there's a movie theater that will be showing FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 3 in actual 3D (polarized, not the red/green glasses) on October 26th and 27th, in honor of Halloween. Here's the website advertising the showing: http://friday13th3d.angelfire.com/

Second, if anyone wants a fairly cheap, high-quality, authentic replica of Jason's hockey mask, check out this site: http://www.frightstuff.com/

It's run by the actual guy that originally created the mask for the films, and the masks you can buy are created from the original mold. You can order a blank, straight from the mold, to customize as you see fit:


Or a blank kit, which has the holes drilled and the strap attached, just needing for you to paint it:


OR, you can head over to the site's message board, where there are several artists who can professionally paint and customize your mask to match the look of any of the films, or if you want your own personal design done instead, they can do that as well. Here's an example of one of the artist's work (Crash) who customized this Part 4 mask:


The paintjobs are professional quailty- every layer of paint is sealed. To damage the paint, they claim you'd have to take a drill to it. The masks themselves are made of ABS/Kydex and are very durable. The blank kits by default come with black elastic straps but the painters can add custom straps of any type, in addition to the cheek snaps and the infamous axe indent on top.

The blank kits are $55, and the paintjobs average about $75. If you just want a plain blank right out of the mold, that's only $30, but who wants to do all that work?

Anyway, I'm having one made up. I'm not going for a specific look from any of the films- I'm having Crash do up my mask in a similar fashion to Part 6, but with some minor differences. I just want a typical, generic 'Jason' look that nonetheless doesn't tie in directly with any of the films (I want to use it for some filming). I'll post pics when I get it in a few weeks.

[BerringerX]

Yeah, I have a blank from Frightstuff.com. I traded a guy a copy of Crystal Lake Memories for it. I need to either get it painted or attempt to paint it myself.

[Dolemite]

I can't paint worth a shit, so I'm having them do it.
