These are headed to ebay shortly. Paid $1 each. Should be over $100 when they sell.

Great score. I use to do a huge Christmas display and collected blow molds. I had over 500 at one point. It's amazing how much some of them go for. My best sell was the poloron life size mechanical one. Got over $700 for it
I don't do the display anymore but still have the website up with the videos and pics

Just remember. They all do not sell for big money. There are a lot of common ones that will barley sell for $5. If you spot them at a yard sale do some quick research before buying

Are they all made out of a thin plastic? And also how tall are those ones there?

They range in size from around 10" - 6 ft tall

Beach. I had friends that lives in Florida that collected blowmolds and they very rarely found them at yard sales. It was actually rate to see them at yard sales at all in the south from what we gathered. And we believe it was from the uv exposure. Over the years the plastic would break down and these things crack to pieces. Up here in the north every yard sale has at least one lol

Whoa, to think when I see these I think more Chinese plastic junk. Never picked one up and looked at it. Now that I know I will never see one again.

Actually not Chinese at all. Good old American companies

Beco. Was from Chicago
Poloron was from new Rochelle New York
Union and dapol. From Massachusetts
Empire/Carolina enterprises. From North Carolina
Grand venture. Was from Washington pa about 20 miles from where I sit

But if you get the drift. The plastic Christmas blowmold was an all American product

I understand - prior to your post I thought they were Chinese plastic stuff.

I saw a rabbit at my local Goodwill earlier today for $4.95. I'm gonna go back in the morning and check it out if it's still there, see which brand it is. I'll update you when I do.
