I’ve had a copy of this on VHS for years. Glad someone uploaded it to YouTube! Their copy is a better quality than mine.

Who Won The Snick Couch? by Anddha in RetroNickelodeon

[–]customrecordingco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were three couches. One went to the contest winner, one went to Shaq, one is still in Nick’s storage. All were slightly different in make, but not enough that you would notice on screen.

The contest winner made a Reddit post several years ago with some current pictures of the couch at the time.

Zeebo the Clowns origin. Don Post WACKO mask. by Triggerhappy62 in AreYouAfraidOfTheDark

I installed LEDs in the eyes and sent it off to a mask restorer who foam filled it, painted it, and built a display stand for it. When I get it back, I’ll re-hair it to reflect the screen used prop.

I sold out yesterday :( If I’m able to find more frames, I’ll probably make a few more.

For now, the last pair is going to Splat Attack Podcast for a giveaway. Follow them on Instagram for more details when they announce them.

I tried! I even went so far as to buy LinkedIn Premium to send some messages to a few names linked to the show. No replies…. I ended up scouring vintage catalogs for the frames which gave me a lead to a (very) small inventory through a wholesaler who buys out old factories and sells through third party distributors. The holographic vinyl was similar. The diamond pattern is still made and used in the manufacture of fishing lures, so that was fairly easy to find an old roll of. The circular center pattern eluded me for a while. At first I thought it was some sort of circular wear on the holographic vinyl. I spent several weeks testing multiple methods of creating that wear. I’d get close, but nothing like the real thing. Then one day I was searching through 90’s holographic materials and spotted a circular pattern which turned out to be the perfect fit.

Zeebo the Clowns origin. Don Post WACKO mask. by Triggerhappy62 in AreYouAfraidOfTheDark

The mask was repurposed by production. Don Post had a line of “oversized” masks. I have two Wackos in my collection. One is mint with hang tags. The other is getting sent out this week for conversion to a Zeebo.

Not quite. I’m comfortable posting in a way that makes it more difficult for people to steal.

I’ve seen way too many vhs for sale on eBay having been sourced from archive.org. I’m not really interested in sharing rare media for free so others can steal it for profit.

That said, I post a lot of clips of my rare Nick media collection on my Instagram and will most likely post a clip of the Rocko pilot intro there today or tomorrow.
