Anyone seen this? I was entertaining the idea of dropping $285 on Dimensional Designs ring for a long time but this one looks more accurate, being cast from Forry's ring like the QmX, DD's wasn't I believe. More affordable to boot.
Just wish they offered more than one size.
Well I went with the Dimensional Designs Crest Of
Dracula (The Ultimate Edition) Ring limited to 100 Rings made! (I just ordered it) Dimensional Designs offers many sizes. You cannot go wrong with their items, I have their The Mummy (1932) Scarab Ring AND JUST LOVE IT!
You did better with the one you ordered from DD Nick. Its not "cast directly" from Forry's ring, which makes it better in my opinion. They had to sculpt the DD ring based off Forry's. Anything cast from FJA's old ring as the mold is seriously lacking in detail. He wore the ring for years and it wasnt preserved all that well. The bat can barely be made out at all. DD's has no such loss of detail because they didn't cast FJA's ring directly, they did an all new mold with pristine details.
Richard do you have the DD Dracula Ring? If so may I see some pics?
Thanks buddy

Did Lon chaney Jr have some kind of a Spider ring? or am I wrong? Where can I buy a replica of that ring?
The Monster,

This is what you are thinking of.....Sr. not Jr. It was a tribute ring that Forrest J. Ackerman released as an homage to Lon Sr. and to raise money for either medical expenses or lawyer's fees. The spider design is based off the old 1920's saying "Don't step on that spider--it might be Lon Chaney!" The thing that is unique about this item is the spider's abdomen contains make up wads from Lon Sr.s make up case. A replica is not going to happen because Lon himself never owned the ring to make a replica of it. It was a tribute with a bit of history encapsulated within. they sell for a small fortune when they pop up.

No, I dont own one. I thought about buying one that came up a long while ago---but I think it went for $400.00 or more so I passed.
