Bought this from Bob over at Fiberglassmasks.com a few days ago. This is the only production-made hood from Freddy vs. Jason I've seen outside of Mario's collection. It's an unpainted flawed blank made from foam latex lined with cheesecloth, presumably for the actor's comfort. It's thin and rips as easily as tissue paper, so its going to need some serious preservation work after my Pam project is done.
Interesting thing about this sculpt is there's practically no texture on it. The neck is very lined and there are some pock marks about the face and head (probably done with a ballpoint pen), but its the least-textured movie mold piece I've seen up close.
One I have it stabilized and properly mounted, I may see if there is interest in doing a run of copies. It is probably too fragile to cast directly, and may be too large for a high-def 3D print, but once I get to that stage, I'll see what options I have.
