Hey guys. I'm off to this girl I know's 18th next month (just after mine - hint hint ) and she is having a masquarade thing. I have decided to go as the Phantom of the Opera...angel of music and all that. The one thing I haven;t been able to find yet, is a decent mask - not that cr@p you see for 99p which is plastic.

I'm just wondering if you guys/girls know anywhere that does a decent half-mask phantom style - or even have one yourself that I could rent!

Cheers people!

I dont know anywhere that you can get them without going directly to the place, but when i went to cirque de soleil they sold high quality masks in the gift shop. I dont know if you can buy them online but it might be worth a look!

I'm sureone else asked a very similar question a year or two back - I think they made their own mask and posted a picture on here. A quick basic Search didn't find anything but it'll be on TM somewhere!

there seem to be some nice (not plastic) ones out there fairly cheap, the official one looks quite nice.

I have a mexican wrestler mask....

You could be the Phantom of Mexican Wrestling

Have you got an ameture dramatics club near you, they usually have decent stuff that they sometime hire our. Might be worth a try.

in Brighton we have TONNES of fancy dress shops etc - they sell the cheap stuff mainly, but have MASSIVELY thick order books (like a really big Argos catalogue) with loads of high quality ceramic masks etc in - could try googling fancy dress shops in your area (if you have all the stuff already to be the Phantom - you can borrow my V mask and go as 'codename V from V for Vendetta)

see linky for a piccy:


You might need a wig though - just thought you would want the option - PM / email me if you need it

I think that could well have been me. I just went down the local fancy dress shop and got a basic mask and painted it a bit and added a couple of bits, it's the way forward, shows you've put some effort into the night!
no idea where those pictures are though.
