Massive Mobster Halloween Costume

Fun costume, I did add the gold tag that said "GANGSTER" on it. I was a ring the the finger holders broke off, so I used Duct Tape and stuck it on-LOL. The mask as all mask's do does get a little hot. I had a black hat that blended with the 1920's New Years Eve theme party and some black sunglassed. I would switche between the two during the night. You may need help getting th shoulder pads on. ONE TIP: I added longer strings to the attached ones for the shoulder pads, that helped a lot. Also, be sure to follow the Mask instructions with a blow dryer...yes it works.

This costume was AMAZING!!! I got tons of attention and was told numerous times, that this was the best costume seen.The costume fit as expected (I am 5'10 and a weigh 215 lbs). It was a bit hard to get the shirt on over the blow up tubes, but once it is on it fit fine. (I had to hem up the cuffs on the sleeves and shirt, but no biggy). I also did as many others have suggested and used a hairdryer to soften the mask and then used a roll of papertowel to hang it on (and stuffed with bubble wrap to fill in the face) and let it air out for 1 week before wearing.The mask is a mask and as such is a bit warm (I danced a lot with it on). Great costume and would definitely encourage you to buy if considering this one.

Here's the longest - short version I could muster...Pro: Really fun costume that turns heads and gets a lot of attention and compliments and best of all, when you want to take a drink of your favorite halloween beverage, it's really easy to lift the mask and get it back down into placeSomewhere in the middle: The mask took a bit of reshaping, but it really wasn't hard to do. A hairdryer, some old rags to stuff into the face to form it, a bit of patience and you're good. Once I was done reshaping it, I let it sit for about 4-5 days (mostly because I forgot about it) and after pulling the shaping supports (rags) back out, it held it's shape really well. The inflatable shoulder pads took a good bit of work to fill, but nothing my foot pump couldn't handle. I tried it the old fashioned way and just tried blowing it up without a pump... yeah... not so much. I had to have a small pump, then it worked great. And like any large mask, it does get a bit warm in there and though there is decent ventialtion, you end up rebreathing your own air, so go easy on the onions, garlic and/or tequila if you plan on wearing it for a while.Cons: I'm 6'1", 220 lbs and it was a challenge to get the costume over my head and onto my shoulders with the inflatables on. Granted I was trying it alone, and once I figured it may be easier to stuff the pads in first, then put the whole thing on, it made a big difference. I definately recommend having a helper though.BLUF: I'd definately buy it again, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to someone (who's not going to the same party of course)

The costume was fantastic but the mask part would not form into the shape as pictured. I used a hair dryer and shoved towels into it but it still would not take shape. All in all the costume was great. The manufacturer should consider an alternative to packaging the mask.

This costume is great. I'm 5'11" 190 and I got the largest size. Fit is perfect. You will need a hair dryer to heat up the mask to shape it but that's about it. Very light weight costume perfect for here in Hawaii. Tried it on for 6 people they all loved it. I'm excited to wear it to the party and to take my kids trick or treating

Everyone LOVED this costume!! Just follow the directions of "fluffing" up the mask! Mask is kinda hot and visibility is difficult. The plastic blow up shoulder pads fit good but trap heat! All in all, I would definitely suggest this costume! If you don't like the mask, this costume would be the PERFECT Beetlejuice "shrunken head" costume with a wig and face paint!

Very cheaply made, but guess that's why the price was low. Didn't fit or truly look like a suit. I sent it back!

This is a great costume for the price. My husband is 6 ft 1 and 235 lbs. the pants waist (elastic) and length fit him great. He normally wears size 40 pants and between 32 and 34 inch length.The one piece jacket and tie fit well and we were able to inflate the plastic shoulders and fit them under the shoulders. We Only had to inflate about 70% or the shoulder-neck was too tight. The sleeves are pretty long on the jacket but it shouldn’t be too hard to turn them under and tack with thread. The mask is very stiff rubber and that would be the biggest criticism. I’ve aired it out and stuffed it with rolled up towels to help shape it. It is tight on him ( he has a big head) so the Velcro strap at the back of the head will need some creativity to adjust/fit properly.Last - if you plan to eat/drink you will need to remove the mask so you might want to buy the fedora to help complete the gangster costume when not wearing the mask.
