It's like the happiest most innocent Michael Myers. Just a sheepish look with those eyebrows, apparently because he got caught eating the last of the mint ice cream judging by the color of his lips.

The loving Mankind mask is baffling. Surely you could just make a rubber version of his mask easier.

sucks to be right
There were a whole lot of extremely cheap plastic pop culture masks throughout the 50s into the 80s which came with shoddy printed plastic smocks



They must have been extremely cheap to produce so pretty much any character which had any kind of pop culture presence got a costume

Some of my earliest costumes were this style, a Cookie Monster and a Bart Simpson. Those masks were razor sharp around the mouth and eye holes and would cover your face in your own breath moisture.

I had a Tinkerbell version of that mask and smock set when I was little. A few years later I got an upgraded version of that costume: a lovely mask and a purple sweatsuit featuring Marge Simpson. Why was it purple? Who knows

Born in ‘79 and I definitely remember rolling carts of these smock and mask getups at K-Mart and the like when I was a kid. Thank my lucky stars my parents were creative and made me original costumes from scratch (mom loved to sew) so that I never once wore those things.

LMAO, “I’m Benji. Ruff ruff.” :geno:

I went with the more obvious Halloween connection, but you know what, you probably have just as much chance of being right, lol. They could probably package and sell it as both if someone thought to do that. Or cheap parents go "You're Michael Meyers this year, next year you are going as Data and reusing the mask." Meanwhile the kid has no clue who either of those people are, lol.

If it is Michael Meyers, it can also be a Captain Kirk mask! 3 masks in one!

And the sharpe mouth hole, all to real. The Venture Bros mentioning it when Hank is wearing the Bat costume, and he cuts his tongue on it and Dean goes "why do you keep doing that?" and Hank goes "i can't help it, its maddening

I went to get to the bottom of this, and apparently the original Michael Meyers mask was a William Shatner mask painted white? I had no clue! That post makes much more sense now, I thought you were just playing off the Data from Star Trek thing you posted above when you mentioned Captain Kirk.

https://riotdaily.com/9-hilariously-bad-michael-myers-halloween-masks/

I guess the one posted before is supposed to be a Michael Meyers mask by design, but I like the added Captain Kirk and Data bonus you brought up, lol. Me learning something might be the best thing that mask accomplished!

I'd definitely repurpose this Conan mask as some sort of horrible hate-for-the-living revenant Conan.
the others are more goofy.
