It looks like the composite of Hyde and Phantom had a pre-Mansion history at Disneyland. <br /><br />I wonder if this Main Street character was any inspiration to the HM team.<br /><br />JGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-8516116154781292122012-11-01T00:30:19.012-07:002012-11-01T00:30:19.012-07:00Major, these pics were perfect for Halloween!

Martinez, I agree, it seems as if the same mask seemed to apply to both characters. It's funny, I thought it looked more like Lon Chaney's Phantom (though it IS different). For Mr. Hyde I always think of the classic Frederic March version.<br /><br /><br />Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-54461319564921757642012-10-31T09:11:59.983-07:002012-10-31T09:11:59.983-07:00After I did more online research, it appears this ...After I did more online research, it appears this character did double duty as Hyde and Phantom depending on which film was showing at the cinema.
