Scott Rob 102 Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 I found a youtube video from a few weeks ago about CADO plastics and there different products. Towards the end of the Youtube video they go down to the floor and film the making of the snowman with penguin 75305. The youtube video is long but it has some good information the last 5 minutes is the best!!!(in my book). youtube link: 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Scott Rob 102 Posted June 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 Attached is the blow mold Halloween and Christmas blow mold list / flyer from Cado Plastics for 2019. Sorry the pages got out of order. The only thing that I noticed that changed was gingerbread tree has all white decorations on it instead of colored decorations.

RichardG 73 Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 Yes, the tree was the only change. Shamed they didn’t release any of the other stuff they got from GF other than the soldier. Takes them long enough to get a catalog out. Price sheet was available in November/December but no catalog lolSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have noticed two things one: they bag the mold before the paint is set. Which is why every Cado item I have has paint loss it still on the bag. The other the type of plastic they use is different from GFP, Empire and old Union plastics. It’s like whiter when un-lit but when lit it’s got a tint to it. I have email Cado about the tint of the plastics but, have not heard back. The picture below are using standard warm white 40watt LED bulb the union Santa has warm white 60 watt LED bulb. Picture from left to right: old Union, Empire, Cado, GFP. The last two pictures are the bag with paint on it and the Cado union box label.

I wonder which candles they have. It would be nice if we could get them to make up some replacement flames and let us buy them direct. Who wouldn't like to have some extras? (I could use some standard GenFoam/Empire NOEL flames and a few GV/Poloron flames.) I'm kind of surprised that they aren't offering any other candles since candles are usually popular.

TED I’ll have to go back through the pics, but it was a pallet of candles. Had a Noel candle and what looked like the Mediterranean candles. I have some replacements but buried. Got a bunch from the last time I was at GF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I missed this part of the conversation before. (Bracing myself for a painful answer.) When you say Nativity do you mean the whole set (with wise men, animals, etc.) or just Mary, Joseph, Jesus? Also, did anyone buy the Santa's Best set or the Large set? TED Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As for the SB set I honestly don’t remember even seeing it, but don’t think anyone got it. Only SB mold I know of selling was Mrs. Claus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
