    Clock King definitely not coming

    Definitely another wave coming which has Newmar Catwoman, Eartha Kitt and Aflred Batman on the skinny body (the guy couldn't remember the 4th character so highly likely it's a variant)

    This likely the last wave of anything new characters. Still a good run and an amazing collection.
    If this is the case I'm 50/50 satisfied, Newmar for sure and Kitt is fine too, but skinny Alfred and another variant?
    I would have rather settled for a Joker goon and Catwoman goon, Commish Gordon should have been added, too bad

      I'll have to witness what someone else does with the FTC clear mask before I'd paint on it. I imagine the results would be spectacular, but I'd settle for a clear, as-is type because it seems to mimic the effect. Wait and see, I guess.

        ^ I don't plan to paint my mask. I'm going to tint it pinkish-tan with dilute dye. That's how it appeared on the show: semi-transparent.

          not sure about that...In some parts yes but others No.There was a solid mask over his face mostly....I am going full painted like the pics at the bottom of the page. (which is what the diplomat face was)

            Looks more translucent to me, see the one Robin is holding

              I've watched this episode innumerable times, frame-by-frame in some sections. The mask is pink-toned translucent, vacuum-formed rigid plastic. Airbrushed details, typically eyebrows and lips. It's held in place with double-sided tape, probably flesh-tone toupee tape.

              Not all the masks are the same scene-to scene. You can see the translucent quality sometimes in Throne's facial movements--lighting is a factor, too. Some masks have reddish cheek tinting.

              In at least two scenes--extreme close-ups-- the interior of the mask has had flesh-tone "highlights" added at certain features to provide opacity and contrast.

                It looks like a mask painted to me. You can't see the actor's face except his eyes.

                Could be the lighting,but you see a solid face in the pics.I like the creepiness of the mask that looks painted and only his eyes are peeking out

                  Notice Robin holds a clear mask that goes over his painted mask The actor's face is clearly covered up (can only see his eyes and just like the bearded chin piece is another separate piece

                    Ummm, ...No mask goes over another except for the goatee piece. It's called editing and prop manipulation.

                    Make it however you wish, it's your custom.

                      Did you look at the last two pics on that link? that's a fully painted mask. Nothing translucent. Seems to me this guy was a man of many of the (same) faces hence the name false face.

                        *sigh* To repeat myself: I've reviewed every remastered FF scene frame-by-frame. In no scene is he wearing a fully-painted opaque mask IMO.

                        Really, do as you like.

                          I am

                          but he isn't wearing just a clear mask, where you can see the actor's face either To throw on just a clear mask and call it a day just isn't false face when you look at the screen shots and actual film

                            Did I not say translucent (not clear!) and semi-painted numerous times? Did I not mention a tinted version? Jeez.

                            You are argumentative in the face of fact and reason. I should not have to define clear vs. translucent vs. opaque to you.

                              so then it's needs to be painted putting a clear mask over some random mego head just doesn't look right to the character

                                There are other options beside painting. Painting is the option you choose based on your perception. That's fine.
