| Oh god my childhood was a darker, scarier, more aesthetically compromised than I realized. |

I had a He-man mask just like this. Creepy.
oh so creepy.
Editor's pick for 4E alone! |

| I had a Secret Squirrel mask like these (remember Secret Squirrel?) Got it at Woolworth's in the 70s. Ah, the good ol' days. Hot, flammable, and ugly costumes.... |

| I can still smell the vinyl outfit and plastic mask. Gah.
What shocks me most is the "ET" mask. Maybe it's juxtaposition with some truly horrendous examples, but looks really great. |

| I think Fonzie would have been obvious had he been wearing a leather jacket instead of a baseball uniform. And you can count me as one person who can't believe some of these aren't homemade. |

| Lisa: I don't think the real Radioactive Man would wear a plastic smock with a picture of himself on it.
Milhouse: He would on Halloween!! |

| I was so certain 3E was Eddie Munster...my brain couldn't get past the massive widow's peak. |

| Are you sure 3E is Dracula? I could've sworn it was David Bowie. . . . Well, I guess the two are pretty much interchangeable. |

| Everyone needs to click on the link for the source of this bizarre collection. Check out the photos. My favorite is simply titled, "Hippie." |

| That isn't even close to being Chewbacca, whoever made that mask needs to be given a medal XD |

| @Ardens: The funny thing is, I knew when looking at it that it was a really bad rendition of Chewbacca. I don't know how. |

| Chachi, of course! I don't know why I was sure that was Bruce Jenner. |

| I tried spelling it about ten ways, but never could come up with the spelling Twiki. It's a tough call, but I think Lucy is the most frightening! |

| These are terrific! I think the Rubik's cube one is my favorite, not to mention Boss Hogg! What odd things to think a kid may want to be for Halloween, but wonderful to have the choice! Anyone else think at first that Fonzie was Scott Bakula from Quantum Leap? Was trying to think of his name from the show to put it in! |

| @Annie1: I tried Bruce Jenner, Donny Osmond, David Cassidy, Jimmy Connors. I got Chachi at the last minute. |

| Ben Cooper costumes! Boy, we were easily pleased back then. I had two of these: I was Jaws for 1st grade and Chewbacca for 2nd grade. |

| I thought that looked like Boba Fett but never tried it since this was supposed to be from the 70's and 80's. |

| @Dr_Awesome - I remember Boba Fett's armor as being light blue, not the whitish-silver in the image. |

| Jules824: | Oct 31st, 2012 at 16:06 GMT | | 9 points |
| My first guesses for Fonzie and Farrah Fawcett were The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. I'm almost certain I had the Wendy costume one year. |
 | D_FenestrationX: | Oct 31st, 2012 at 16:21 GMT | | 9 points |
| Would B.A. Baracus be an acceptable alternate for Mr. T? I can't see the rest of the costume well enough to tell if it matches the character. |

| The Masks all suck. That's why you had to wear a plastic smock with a name and cartoon drawing of who you were supposed to be. |

| Werewolf, wolf man, Teen Wolf... it never would have occurred to me that that was supposed to be Chewy. |
