Okay, so I seen this picture on Facebook, and it was posted by the Official 2018 Halloween page. I noticed the mask looks almost completely different. I was wondering if it’s the actual 2018 Hero mask, one of the stunt masks, or maybe even a mask sculpted for promotional purposes. I know the lighting has A LOT to do with how it looks, but there are other details that don’t really add up. I’ve had multiple people on Facebook tell me it was “obviously from the new film,” as if I was that clueless lol Let me know what you guys think.
Image was lightend up for a better look at the masks detail
Notice how the mask has a lot less detail, (Even with taking the lighting into consideration). Also, the mask looks really smooth. Here are some screenshots from the movie trailers we’ve seen.
A couple other things I would like to point out, is that the hairline on the Promotional picture is down further than the other two trailer screenshots. Also, the collar is a HUGE noticable difference.
With that said, what do you guys think? Is it the 2018 Hero mask? Is it a stunt mask? Or is it a mask sculpted for promotional purposes?
Whatever it is, the ear shape matches the movie masks perfectly.
I agree, however the promo pic has a more defined seam under the ear. Could be due to the fact that we can barely see the neck in the trailer with the huge collar lol.
Different lighting, and the collar is bunched up at the back, it has to be another one of the 5 masks made
Whichever mask it is, I like the look of it!
It almost looks like it could be Castle, cause it’s not as short in height compared to JJC, could be wrong, but Castle has been used for a lot of promotional pics currently
like so with this stairway shot
Whatever it is, it’s definitely from the hero mold from everything I see. When you up the contrast, you can make out the same distinct crack above the proper right eye. That and the ear matches perfect. As for any other cracks being gone, maybe this is the second version? Or perhaps the light is washing our cracks. Who knows!

there are cracks in front of the ear I can faintly see that are higher than the ones on the jaw line, the lighting is definitely washing out the subtle ones, apart from the one you have circled in your comparison
Same mask
It does look really smooth and clean in the unedited picture. Wouldn’t it be awesome if there was flashback scenes from 78 with a clean mask?
