Im curious if its worth the price of admisson?
I bought it in SEPT, I got my money back and was able to keep the mask.
It cut up my ear due to sharp projections on the collar. I also was bruised around my eyebrow.
It wasn't a hard-helmet as promised on the original Amazon ad. It's flexible.
The back is slit up the middle, you have to pivot the neck area wide open to get your head into it.
The electronic lenses are an assembly about 3/4 of an inch thick. I couldn't use them, I had to go get normal red acrylic lenses, so mine doesn't glow.
For anyone who has trouble seeing out of these with the red lights on, try getting a light blue transparent sheet and putting it over the eyehole. It should help with visibility by filtering out the red light.
If you're willing to put in some work, priming painting it, smoothing the rough spots, it might be worth $59. Like another said, it's not the most accurate, but you won't get that for sub-$100. It's more a costume mask than a collector-level product.
The one you linked to is the "normal" size. There is also a large version, which is not slit up the back, but it's so big I think it looks bobblehead-ish.
