Rubie's mens Creature Reacher Deluxe Oversized Mask and Adult Sized Costumes, Multi Color, Standard US

I am giving this costume 5 stars as it was a great deal at $169.00. But there is room for improvement.First the good:The head is a great sculpture, well cast in thick latex and very well painted, the paint does not flake off and stretches well as you pull the mask over your head. ( im 6-2" with a big head and it easily fits me)The arms and hand extensions are also well painted and very light weight, the hand holds inside are crude but do an adequate jobThe undershirt is very long and fits well (i am a 45" chest)The costume was well packed (double boxed) and arrived via Amazon Prime in just 2 days (great service)The Bad:If you have a big head and fine hair you will need to put on a nylon scull cap used under wigs or something similar to stop the latex pulling some of your hair out as it did with me the first time i tried it on. You could use Johnson's baby powder on the inside of the mask but that becomes messy, but it would smell better than the latex and allow the mask to slip on easier. I feel the nylon scull cap would be the best solution. I used an old baseball cap and cut off the peak. ( next time i will use the nylon scull cap)The mask is heavy and cast in thick latex with two small eye holes next to the creatures eyes These are crudely cut out and quite sharp so you may have to do some fine cutting (be extremely careful if you do this as you could slip and ruin the mask or cut yourself) or adding some foam around that area to stop the sharp edges digging into your eyes.Inside the head under the hair is foam rubber to keep the top of the head flat and to raise the head higher on your own head to enable you to see out of the eye slits. In my case i needed to add 2 more inches of foam to bring the slits up to eye level. I also added foam on the checks and around the forehead to stop the head slipping as it tended to do even on my big head.The supplied chains will need to be fixed in place with string or zip-ties as it will not hold in place by itself, it just unties and drops to the floor.One final point is that the whole outfit could be much better if one was able to fit the costume over the head instead of the head resting on top of the costume. Maybe a zipper in the front of both the burlap top and the undershirt would help with this giving a much more realistic illusion .The foam inside the hands and arms came too far up the arm and i was not able to get enough of my arms inside. To fix this i spent 45 minutes pulling the excess foam from ininside the arm to enable my hands to go inside enough to hide the ends of the fake arms under the supplied shirtThe Ugly:Well its certainly that and more, The kids that saw me walking from my car to my office in this costume went screaming and crying to their parents, that is a good testament to its effectiveness .It seems like i have written a lot of negative stuff here but they are all minor issues give the great price i paid through Amazon. i would 100% recommend this costume to anyone if you have a little time and skill to make it custom fit your head.

lot of money for the quality. pictures looked better than the costume. again I was expecting a better costume for the money. I sent it back. Very excited to order it, very disappointed when I received it. Really disappointed when I put it on.

Great costume, but the outfit does not match the picture—the shirt doesn’t have holes. The mask collapses into your face and digs into your eyes. I didn’t have time to add foam to add support as another user did—will do that for next year. The sleeves are too short so you will need to get a long sleeve shirt to hide your arms. Other than that it is a great costume, I sat real still and had several kids running from the house scared once I moved.

Great costume! The mask and arms are just the best! Very detailed and the head, being so oversized emphasizes the total creature look. I did though obtain larger and longer chains, purchased Amazon's halloween monster boots and wore bigger/baggier more rotten looking pants and top to emphasize to the appearance.

Very cool costume. Great price. I scared my 7 and 9 year old.

This costume is awesome and I get rave reviews from all the neighbors. Beware though, it does not fit well without modification. I had to insert foam and a half helmet into the head for it to fit and then I still usually wear goggles as well to protect my eyes. Extremely hot (especially since I live in AZ) and I can only wear it for a few minutes at a time.Many of the neighbors liked the costume so much they wanted their picture taken with me. :)

Absolutely love it! With a bit of glue ( to touch up the hair) and a bit of mud and debris ( to touch up the clothes) it looked great.

Awesome costume!! Shipped out on the 9th and received it on the 14th. Good quality overall. The chain around waste appeared bigger on line thank actually was. Prices on this costume vary, so shop around.
