Knowing that mask came from the exact same mould as that of which the hero came from - has got to be the single most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in the Myers community since the release of the actual hero photos in 2018 40 years later.

Dude, that thing looks so much like the one in the movie even without the conversion

That absolutely looks like nick Castle is under it. Very little work was needed for Tommy Lee Wallace to perfect those eye cuts. You should 100% have that thing 3D scanned. You could make an absolute fortune. No matter how good artists are out their. Their sculpts are a mile off how it originally looks. That is so 78. I've got goosebumps 🖤🖤🖤🖤

That’s just incredible. I cannot believe how amazing it still looks 40 years later. Very very cool. Got chills when it was taken out fo the box. Congrats Sean. Sure nice people that had it. So cool

That room looks absolutely amazing

Absolutely insane piece sean, that’s probably as close to the hero mask as you can get without it actually being a hero mask. Congrats on the score!

Wow. Congrats, man. Always warms my heart to see history wind up in the hands of those who will care for it.

Wow that gentleman was superbly professional! Amazing piece 👌🏻

Wow unbelievable!!! 40 yrs in that condition!!!!!! Congrats Def one of the Holy Grails. 👍💯

This whole video is great but the part that gave me chills was the vintage pics & footage of the Magic Shop at Disney World in Florida. My family went to Disney World Florida many times when I was a kid in the late 70’s & I remember it clearly. Being a little kid back then I was just in awe at all the Halloween masks. The (now classic) Don Post Darth Vader mask was brand new at the time and I was amazed just to see it. I also remember begging to try on a Fly Head mask and they let me. It was an ingenious design, instead of 2 big eyeholes like a typical mask it had many several tiny round eyeholes in every little facet of its compound eyes. So from the outside nobody could look in, but from inside the mask you could see out very well, like looking through a screen. I wanted that Fly Mask so bad but it was too expensive. Seeing the footage in this video brought back all those crazy memories!

That is a holy grail for sure. Doesn't get a whole lot cooler then that. Amazing how well it's held up over years. No doubt you'll be taking good care of it and doing everything you can to make sure it lasts another 40 years.

I've rewatched this like 25 + times. Such a beautiful mask!

With technology now you could have it scanned with 3D imagery so collectors could have replicas without having to salvage your original mask. Would be pretty cool to have because even with the awesomeness of Nikos N.A.G masks sculpting and the hand full of masks that have lineage to a 75 kirk this would be the perfect representation of the shape! The End All Be All myers mask! Congratulations on your score.

This video is FANTASTIC! Thank you again for sharing this.

That is SO damn cool, Sean! There is no better collector to own that mask than yourself.

This has to be the best Halloween mask story ever man I mean I'm blown away!!

Looks like Jamie Lee Curtis is doing 2 more Halloween movies YES!!!!!!

Awesome..the shape is still well almost in shape

"Grail worthy," I couldn't agree more. Epic score bro! 🖖🗡

You probably already know this being a mask collector, but I would seriously recommend getting that foam head (if it is foam) out of it as soon as you possibly can because it will slowly but surely destroy the mask.

Huge congrats brother. Those markings do look like they match up with the hero and the condition of that mask is SWEET!

That was funny as hell when u did the air quotes “might be able to get him back into.. SHAPE” 😂😂😂😂😂

Awesome piece of history you have there! The detail is the best I have ever seen. It will be great to see that mask years down the road for many horror enthusiasts to look at. The jem in your collection now!

Puppies are so cute!

That is so awesome, a true collector piece right there

That's great, Sean! Glad you have one now in your awesome collection. Now, if you can get one of those Silver Shamrock emblems...lol

That's awesome. Love the backstory. Thanks for sharing. Take care.

I love your home. So awesome.

What a cool piece 👌😎 I live in middle Tennessee 50 miles east of Nashville

I laughed, "this is almost a holy grail item". Um, hell yeah! It is THE holy grail item for Myers mask collectors - scarce as hen's teeth, insanely valuable and desired by Myers mask fans worldwide. If I had a lazy $15-20k, and could even find one, I'd buy one. You are a lucky man Sean! They really stored it well. Most of us have to make do with replicas and even those can be expensive (think NAG) but nothing compared to this - this in a different league altogether. How do you plan to store/display it?

Need to get a 3D printer and have that mask scanned to make a solid mold and start selling some spot-on versions of the original Halloween mask. That would be absolutely amazing

Hey man greetings from Belfast, Ireland. This episode is fucking amazing. I've been watching your stuff for years. This and the Tommy Lee Wallace rebuilding the mask episodes were incredible. I could go on and on about some of my other favourites.. Thanks for bringing this stuff to us all. Stay safe over there bro! 🔥 🎃 🔥

Damn! I can't believe how good it looks! \m/

Wow Amazing Great acquisition

Very cool to see a real one!!! Thanks for sharing it sean!

Looks absolutely amazing! Congrats on your huge score 😎🎃🎃

Sean That's awesome man! I've never seen one in that good of shape

Amazing....🤘🎃🤘

Wow! Great score. Congratulations 🤘🏻

Surreal to see this Sean. I'm glad you bought it.

your room looks like a dream toy store

So cool, can't think of a more deserving new owner

Awesome

I love this Mask ❤

ALL SO COOL!!!!!

Wow talk about a find,Sean your videos never disappoint.....

That is so damn awesome Sean u have the grail sir!

That's amazing!

What a find! Thanks for sharing the video. Of course, I have to ask the question - Do you already have a bid on Shatner’s actual head?!😂. Just imagine the value of having the head that inspired the mold!

Someone had one of these on ebay around 4 or 5 years ago for a million dollars. I remember that being the talk of Michael-Myers.net for a good while lol. Needless to say it did not sell for that.

These masks are so hard to find.. they did not survive. So jealous you got this one.

Every one of these collection videos seem to find more ways to impress me. That mask looks great especially considering its age.

I love Halloween AND Star Trek so this mask gives me such mixed feelings. "oooh....modify it! Wait, don't modify it! No, modify it...!"

Awesome Shape on!!!!

Actually Star Trek Fans DO know that it's a very high priced collectible, not just because it's a Captain Kirk mask, but that it was used for Halloween. William Shatner has stated that he knows that the mask was used for Halloween, he's even worn the mask himself on Halloween one year

Another Great look into the "Collection." An Original Shatner mask, all the way from WDW 40+ years ago! It looks like @malfuncsean has some neat looking "Disneyana" around the House. Hope that aspect of the collection gets highlighted someday.

Cool that it wasn't partially converted and attempted to be sold even with it dry rotting

Congratulations Sean!

This was one heck of a cool video. I was not expecting that mask to be 40 dollars back in the 70s. For some reason even before he said the price, I was thinking the mask would have cost 10-15 dollars back in the 70s. 40 dollars back then was a bit of money. Happy the guy kept it around all of these decades.. And as for YOUR amazing collection, I now call you, THE "HORRORder". Try saying that really fast 3 times. I can barely say it once, slowly. Great video. Great channel.

You need to encase that in an ARGON filled display. Keep the atmosphere from ruining it any further. Should also encase any other valuable latex or degradable items in argon. It's cheap and simple.

Great score.

Dope!!!!🤩🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

Love this! Do more! =) and thank you!

Loving this 🤘🏼

THIS IS EPIC!!!

Holy shit this was awesome! Never seen an original... I just remember Tommy Lee Wallace talking about how there were no Halloween masks when they were shooting the classic so he picked up a clown mask and one from William Shattner which they made some modifications and the rest is freaking history! Blows my mind to see this! Sean what's up man, you always seem to bring it! 🙏

The brother is the spitting image of a young Johnny Carson

Congrats brah! Welcome back to the small club! :-)

You should have a nice kirk copy made for that guy. So cool and such a rarity!

This is so cool! By the way, dig the 'Fragile' Marx Bros reference. But really Tommy Lee Wallace is severely underappreciated for how much he's responsible for the success of Halloween. Without his modifications to that mask I doubt the film would work as well. He made a pretty funky looking mask into something nightmare-ish.

It must be worth a lot if he got on a plane and hand-delivered it.

I actually got a Michael myers mask at the magic shop in Disney world back in 1990 and it was $40. That was alot of money for me I was 11 years old

That mask always reminds me of William Shatner eyes in the movie Devil's Rain 6:39 is that Weird Al Yankovic leaning on that lamp post?

i dident know these still existed

i wonder why old latex masks hold up so well but ones from 5 or 15 years go that were kept correctly rotted? great piece though!

Damn that’s dope! Love ur videos! Especially Halloween related. 🎃🤘

Dude love your stuff it would be awesome to own a lot that stuff. Maybe one day when your ready to sell that is lol.

Congrats Sean!

“Best investment I ever made” yeah dude, I’d say so. $40 back in the 70’s and probably went for at least 20x that now. It’s in pretty pristine shape too, maybe send it in to a place for conservation? Not restoration but conservation.

3D scan it. Sell the model for one to two bucks each, and you would get so much money.

Sweeeeet! I'm jelly! ROCK on!

Great

Classic Kirk mask and i like it 👍

Bought my Kirk mask back in 79. Turned it into a Michael Myers and did Haunted Houses until the late 80's. Sad to say he disintegrated by the mid 90's.

OMG!!!!😳😢😭😍 TEARS OF JOY!!!, This Is The Holy Grail of them All, I've Always said it would have Been Awesome if Debra & or Mr. Warlock would have took One for the Team so to speak, & sacrificed ,one of The 3 hero Masks & placed IT in the Smithsonian, we're Dorothy's Red slippers are From W.O.Z , Because just like That Film Carpenter's HALL🎃WEEN Is DEFINITELY a Cultural Phenomenon!!, & TO BE Shared With Fans World Wide!, Thank You So Much Sean, for Taking time out of your Busy day To Share with Us Fellow Fans!, love & Blessings to you Brother, The 1 who started it All. KEEP ON ROCKING!!!🤘 I hope to meet you 1 day, & GET Your Autograph!! 😊👍💯

Wow! Unbelievable!

I literally live 5 miles from the town this mask lived in. I’m in Johnson City TN. I would have legitimately wrote a check for 10k for this and saved this fellow the hassle of traveling. Dam the luck.

I loved this video, and I thank you. I share you love of masks. I collect Don Post Universal Monster pre and post reissues. I wanted to make a quick comment about the foam filling problem with the face looking too rounded. You may want to contact Dante Renta. He does foam filling, and his work is first rate!!! He works with the Tharp's in Los Angeles area. His cost is very reasonable, and it will also come with a stand for the mask made out of what appears to be sonotube. Anyway, thanks again.

I’m actually starting my Halloween collection

The guy who bought it said he lives in Elizabethon TN! Just 45 minutes away from me!

Can we have a video how you make your hair/mini Mohawk, seriously.

Cool!

1975 mask.. hairline is lightyears ahead of TOTS!

Great story and that it came from the original owner. Insane! I'd love to know the value?

I wish it was easier to find a good replica of these.

Oso his brother lives in Elizabethton Tennessee that's exactly where I'm from some of my family are the holtsclaw and my papaw was a whitson and im a Pierce

The holy Grail of Michael Aubrey Myers right here 😱🤯👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪

So much fiyaaaah!

Barton himself looks like Captain Kirk LOL

I have seen Kirk's in far better condition but still sweet to own one
