Can't we all just get along? LOL! I thought that I would weigh in on this subject as I had something to do with the silicone Freddy's creation(I sculpted the mask) and I am a proud owner of a Butterfingerz as well. In response to the argument that the Butterfingerz is a better likeness to Robert I would have to agree. The BF was sculpted using Rob's lifecast and the lifecast of Rob in part 4 make-up for reference and measurements. The result is a great likeness but a very small mask. The silicone Fred was sculpted on a specially designed sculpting bust that Russ designed himself so the mask would fit the general public. When you sculpture on a bust like that you are somewhat limited by the features of the bust's likeness and obviously it will not have Rob's features. The silicone mask is designed to take on the features of whoever has it on. Some who wear it look exactly like Englund in the make-up but on others it doesn't. As for accuracy in regards to the sculpture of the make-up, neither mask is even close to being dead on accurate to the film make-up. I have extensive reference on all of the different Freddy make-ups and neither mask matches up dead on to any of them. When I sculpture a Freddy mask I always put in the key details that make it obvious that it is supposed to be Fred, but the rest of the sculpture I just wing it and make it as intricately detailed as I can. I want the back of the head to be as ultra detailed as the front. This is not accurate at all to the films because the back of the head was pretty void of details because they didn't plan on showing the back of his head on camera so why put in the sculpting hours. At any rate I think that both are great masks but they are not really comparable in that one is meant more as a static prop head and the other was designed specifically to look and move like the wearer is in film quality prosthetics. Here are some pics of me in my SPFX mask and as you can see it looks different on every person.<img src=\"http://www.xtremedesignfx.com/flashfred1.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://www.xtremedesignfx.com/flashfred2.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />At any rate I feel honored that a mask that I sculpted is even being debated as one of the best. Thanks!Lance/XtremeDesignFX

I agree! That is the best one I've seen! I guess I should've had you paint mine Lance... The one I had didn't look anywhere close to as cool as that one! <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"\" border=\"0\" alt=\"tongue.gif\" />I also hope you do another Fred for us...

Oh. Well, I guess the sculptor does deserve the best copy. <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":tongue:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"tongue.gif\" /> I would have kept mine if it looked like that.

Year, well said Lance, and it would be great to see more Fred masks from you!!!

I've said all along that Butterfingers was the only mask (in my eyes) to capture Englund as Freddy. I never intended on buying any Freddy mask but could not pass up such a fine work...............................Larry
