[🪦 robocop ●]

I was checking out darkside studios messageboard and the killer klowns have been permanently discontinued. what a bummer :down:

That\'s too bad..they\'re death studios classics!
I hope someone pics up the molds!

those were a couple masks I had actually been planning on picking up real soon

socks balls

this does suck, but you gotta admit, Paul does offer a wide line of masks. And at least he picked up the jeremy bohr molds.

[🪦 puckface ●]

yea, but many of his masks, as in the characters (no offence at all meant) are either made by other makers or just not very rare to see

the klowns werent made by many people, so if you wanted one, Paul was who to go to

thats why I had hoped to get a couple soon, because I would have had the cash and hes the only one who really did them

[🪦 SuperDanDrista ●]

I agree with puck on this. I think the klowns were the one cool rarity that darkside had...They might have a couple left like Danny the Bastard...the rest are just your average run of the mill pieces unfortunately

"As stated above, I would rather not go into it now. If I would have had notice, so would everyone else. Let\'s not start speculations either. There are so many other cool things that we can do here at DarkSide. The plans have already begun.

It doesn\'t sound like they had a choice. I know the mold sale deal was just for the main 4. I also know that the were reconsidering that deal and were suppose to make an announcement on jan 1st. Seems Like the were forced to stop production. If they hadn\'t been I think they would have given some notice to there customers so the would have a last chance to get one. I wander if they got served with cease and desist papers by the chiodo\'s ?

That\'s very possible but I wouldn\'t want to jump to conclusions of course...

The Chiodo Bros are gonna be replicating the cotton candy gun eventually and I know they always have plans to release some other props but never do. I would hope they would because I do collect killer klown props...

Popcorn guns ehh? I would love to see that
Dan do the Chiodos ever respond to your emails? They havent responded to any of mine. Could it be that im just not cool enough?

[🪦 SuperDanDrista ●]

That\'s probably it.......

actually I\'ve never emailed them LOL. I know a Killer Klown collector that has a lot of the props in the movie and is friends with them. Always displays them with his table at conventions now. He gives me the inside scoop. That\'s who I got my popcorn klown prototype from.
