Professional quality mask. Don’t drop it and it will last and last.
This is a long one:This mask is extremely well made. It has foam rubber padding inside (store in temperature-controlled area; a hot garage will ruin that padding). If taken care of and properly stored it could last for years, as in “leave it to someone in your will” years. It’s hard, not flexible like rubber, silicone, or cheap plastic, but I believe that’s part of the beauty. It is heavier than most, so bear that in mind. It certainly could shatter, crack, or otherwise break if carelessly dropped. That means you don’t lend it to your brother-in-law or frat-bro or ex-girlfriend without a cash deposit. It’s expensive enough and nice enough to say “no” when asked to borrow it, with no qualms about someone disparaging your mama. (My response to that is “And don’t you ever forget it.”) Once you have it in your hands you’ll understand. Since the mask is thick, the padding, 1/4 to 1/3 inch think, is what will fit it to your face. Remember, that will be your own bit of perspiration, oil, and skin cells left in it—do you want someone else’s breaking you out? For the moochers, spongers, and freeloaders, you might want to order one of the mucho mas barata Guy Fawkes masks on here for lending. I know you’re wondering why I sound so selfish, so egocentric. No. It’s not a personality disorder. Overall I’m a warm, generous person. I’ve also been acting since 71, designing costumes and costuming since mid-90’s, & “officially”directing since mid-2000’s, plus myriad other Stage jobs over the decades. Bottom line: costumes get a bloody workout in the run of a show, tho actors, unless they’re new & need teaching, are very careful-most of them. Never loan any costume, garment, prop, or set piece to a play that you can’t bear to lose or have ruined. Things happen, and not on purpose. Usually. Except that time in 1976 during Godspell when the girl who played M Magdalene snapped the nice necklace I lent her in half without asking so she could wrap in around her big old head (Grumble). Same goes when a friend wants to borrow your good stuff to wear to a party. Unless it’s a Sunday School party, your stuff is going to take a beating. Your buddy that you let wear your $35.00 + mask & $90.00 + coat or cloak is likely not to give a hoot about your stuff beyond the 1st drink bc it doesn’t mean to them what it means to you, so tell them to open up their tight little purse/wallet and buy their own. If they call you a ****, that says a lot more about them than it does about you. (An old friend who regularly passed out in their clothes, much of the time with whatever they were eating/drinking spilled down their front, wanted to wear a jacket of mine once. I laughed for 10 minutes.).TL;DR: Excellent, well-made mask. Store in cool dark place. Don’t loan it to anyone.

Outstanding V for Vendetta/Guy Fawkes Mask!!!
Ordered yesterday and arrived today! Mask was in excellent condition and fully painted! Nice thick resin mask with lots of padding and thick, adjustable buckle strap. Was actually pretty comfortable to wear, easy to see out of, and easy to breath through. Will look GREAT on display! Definitely recommend and worth the money!!!

This is a REAL review
This is much more solid than I expected. The connections for the head strap is well done and is sturdy. There is three total foam pads on the inside, one on the forehead and two for the sides of the mask. I can tell that the mask is actually resin or something like that as on the sides I can see where there are and were bubbles in the mixture. With that said, I have no doubt that it is sturdy, you can just feel it. The paint is pretty good, there's a couple very small inconsistencies but that is really not noticable at all. There is only two things I would call complaints, when wearing the mask it gets a bit wet from your breath on the inside. Also, it has pretty poor visibility while wearing it. Other than those two things, I'd say it is well made and worth the money.

Not cheap plastic
I was pleasantly surprised the material of the mask was a thicker ceramic material. It's a nice mask. Paint work is definitely short of complete. I'll be touching up missed areas with paint. Even with the lazy paint job, I am very satisfied with the mask.

Heavy, fragile but quality
It's pretty heavy and feels like a fragile ceramic. After a few minutes, you'll sweat and the mask will slide down. It's not painted exactly like the sample image but it's close. Makes a much better decoration than a mask. I have an average size head and the eye holes don't line up just right for me. Looks great on my shelf. Also the eyes are much more narrow than in the product image so it looks like it is squinting.

Sturdy.
This mask is very sturdy and quite heavy. The material is thick.

$$ and low quality
Arrived quicker than expected which is the only plus. Mask is a durable material but arrived with scratches on it. Looks like maybe dropped before packaging or maybe sold to me used which is more likely. Nitbgoing to use this vendor again for anything.

This thing is heavy
This mask is heavy. It's made with a dense PVC type material and is about 3/16 of an inch thick. The paint and cut outs are a bit sloppy.
