Thread: Zagone movable jaw masks

Tweet

Anybody have experience with these movable jaw masks from Zagone studios?

The one that looks most intriguing is this one. The jaw moves and you have a clear path to breathe (because you can see his tongue in the video). A mask you can breathe would be really nice.


This is a quicktime video -- only kind i could find

Here is another one that looks neat but because your mouth is blocked by fabric i think it will still get hot like any other mask



see video further down at the store site below

Saw them at Transworld and they work amazingly.
The guy tried several different masks on and showed us how they worked. The jaw opens and closes when you talk better than other moving jaw masks I have seen.

I own many zagone studios masks they are super quality for the price and the moving jaw masks are great.

Dogman/Clint: you like the open mouth version like the ringmaster or the fabric covered mouth like the death mask?

The mask in the video's pretty darn nice. I would swish around some water with black food coloring in my mouth to color my tongue as well. Great mask.

I would have to say it depends on the character you want. The skull kind of needs the black mesh to hide your mouth. The Ringmaster is less likely to show much of your mouth.
I don't think the black mesh fabric would be too uncomfortable or hot to wear. Fabrics on the inside of masks tend to be thin enough to be comfortable, but thick/dark enough to hide your face.

Hubby loved his. He had the fabric over the mouth. Because it was a little cold that night he said the fabric was great but thought it would become hot if it was warmer out. Oh, and you can't drink with it, so you have to take the mask off or make a straw hole. heheh

He got the werewolf with the gloves (those are GREAT!), chest shirt and feet. I ditched the overshirt that went with the chest shirt and made my own:






The next year used it for a prop dummy:

I love their masks and have quite a few of the movable jaw/mouth ones. It's worth it, you won't be disappointed they make quality stuff. I wore the kick ass killer werewolf mask last year and got so many compliments, good stuff! (:

I have the grim reaper one right now, very cool costume and the mask is comfortable and looks great. I would highly recommend the zagone costumes.
