The originals did have "FUN WORLD DIV" stamped behind the chin. I'm not sure if they all glowed, but most of them DID possess a thicker cloth, t-shirt-like material for their hoods. The eye mesh was thicker/darker, too. Each mask was hand-trimmed and hand-painted, so no two copies looked exactly alike. There were at least 2 or 3 different mold designs used for that ghost(face) mask in particular, with the most desirable of them having a small, circular indention near the bottom of the mouth opening. That style of production mold also produced the screen-used masks in the first Scream.
If you are looking to find an original "Fantastic Faces" or "Fearsome Faces" release from the early 90s (before Scream hit), prepare to pay STUPID money. People are charging - and offering; I've seen it - as much as $275 for those things now. My advice to you is to ask around locally...See if anyone else has had one they've stored away or forgotten about. The internet in general has already been scoured by collectors and Ebay is hopeless, unless you like spending megabucks.
Cheers,
Ryan
