Mask Construction
NEW FOR 2026! The mask is made of a durable yet lightweight flexible urethane foam material, very similar to the screen-used masks produced for the film. This replaces the previous version which was constructed of a rigid foam with an outer resin shell. The new flexible foam version is 60% lighter, making it more comfortable to wear. Inside the mask is a metal wire armature that runs through the ears and along the top of the head. This wire helps the mask to keep its shape and prevents sagging of the ears.
Adjustable Leather Strap+Padding
The three-point adjustable leather strap provides a secure fit and is designed to fit most head sizes. The three individual straps are attached to the inside of the mask using screws, and they can be removed if desired. The straps are interchangeable with the wall hanging kit.
The strap is recommended if you plan on wearing the mask with hood. The hood is not sufficient by itself to keep the mask from shifting on your head while wearing.
The strap is also recommended if you plan on displaying the mask using the optional display stand. This keeps the mask firmly in place on the stand without slipping.
If you plan to display the mask using your own method (on a custom head armature, for example), and if you don’t plan to wear it, you may not need to include a strap.
The padding consists of a 1/2 inch thick piece of soft foam which makes contact with your forehead and nose while wearing the mask.
Faux Fur Hood
The optional faux fur hood is custom sewn to fit the mask. The hood is permanently attached to the edge of the mask.
There is only one size of hood available, designed to fit most head sizes.
Display Stand
The optional display stand has a wood base/dowel plus a flexible foam ball for supporting the mask.
Short stand — This is recommended if you plan to display the mask without a hood. Short stand height is approximately 15 inches (38 cm).
Tall stand — This is recommended if you plan to display the mask with a hood because it gives room underneath the mask for the hood to drape without bunching up. Tall stand height is approximately 20 inches (51 cm).

Although the mask is fairly durable, it is not indestructible. Avoid storing the mask in a way that causes it to fold, bend, or crease because this could permanently deform it. Also avoid leaving the mask in hot environments such as inside a closed car during the summer. The flexible foam material is resistant to tearing, but it is possible to tear or puncture if it catches on something sharp.
Use caution and common sense while wearing the mask! The holes above the mask eyes allow you to see out while wearing it, but they obstruct most of your vision. The hole under the mask teeth helps with air flow while wearing the mask, but the fur hood traps air AND heat. It is not recommended to wear the mask with hood for extended periods of time.
