It's probably a really noob question, but couldn't find a definitive answer.
I'm considering buying one of the TOTS masks, unfortunately can't afford a custom one. My aim would be the H1 mask. I'm no expert by any means, can tell the different movies masks from each other but that's about it. From what I understand TOTS doesn't have the licence for an H1 mask. However there's various H2 versions and if I understand well some of these versions are basically the H1 masks with some tweaks to make it legal. It also doesn't help that the H1 and H2 masks were the same prop and only looked different due to the actors heads.
First of all they have their H2 deluxe mask. That one's eyeholes seem to be shaped differently to all other H2 masks and has a sort of weathered-looking finish.
There's also the Elrod Mask...which according to the blurb is how the mask looked when Myers stole the knife, even though there was supposed to be just one mask in the movie, right? Also eyeholes are different to the H2 Deluxe. Was that basically their H1 mask in disguise?
Then there's the Hospital Mask...which is supposedly based on a single photo, looks sleeker to me and again eyeholes are more similar to the Elrod mask. Again AFAIK there was one mask used through the film, unlike say H20.
Last, the Ben Tramer mask which I always thought was just a sneaky way of creating an H1 mask sculpt with fair hair and a different finish.
So anyone who could clarify the deal with all these variations of the supposedly one mask (bar the Tramer)?
