Doppelganger Face Masks: Terrifyingly Real

October 10, 2011 / aaaaahh, creepy, doppelganger, expensive, face, face poison, facial recognition, japan you cray-cray, my face would probably break the printer (i'm ugly folks), why you want that?, you think i could sneak into some top secret government facilities if i wear a ronald reagan one?

Japanese firm (surprise, surprise) REAL-f will create an ULTRA-realistic copy of your face in mask form so you can...actually, I don't know why. This is just an all-around terrible idea. One Geekologie Writer's face is enough ugly for the world! Isn't it, Tiger? *cat throws up hairball* Harsh bro, that was harsh.

Those interested in possessing an exact replica of their face (down to the level of individual pores and eye vasculature, according to REAL-f's website) can get a 3D "face mask" for US $3,920. A copy of your entire head will set you back US $5,875. Additional face and head copies run $780 and $1,960, respectively.

Granted you could probably get a mask made of somebody else's face, then rob a bank and frame them for the crime, or -- OR -- you could just kill them and wear their actual face as a mask. Because, admit it, this was never about getting rich in the first place, it was about revenge. I'M COMING FOR YOU, DEREK.

Hit the jump for a bunch more creepy examples.
