    Thin.
    Is it just me, or are the Obake sheets getting really thin now? The last one I got was the Bloody Balzac and it is a mere bubble over the inner body. My very first Obake (Halloween '05) has an extremely thick vinyl sheet compared to this last one. I noticed a couple of Obakes in between these two were thinish, but not as this as this new one. I'm not talking squishy soft, I'm talking no substance if you push to much it will dint thin.

    Any ideas? SB cheapening? Molds getting worn? Hiddy heard about Skylar's Obake problems?

    I could be wrong, but it might have to do with transparent sheets vs. opaque sheets. At least that was what I attributed it to...

    I've noticed it seemed thinner too but I also assumed it was the clear vs. opaque thing...

    Unfortunately I don’t have any of the older ones so I can’t say for sure…

    I don't remember the older clear being thinner, but I'm not at home to check.

    I could be wrong but i think the balzac obake sheet is thinner because of the balzac head sculpt.. to fit his big noggin' and horns in

    The Pink Masked Ranger was thinner than normal too, but not as thin as the Balzac Obake. DB - you might be onto something with the different head. The horns are certainly molding the vinyl around them though.
