The Neca's are almost 1/4" (.250) think. These masks have to be thick, because the material they're made out of is just not strong enough to take an impact. You've heard the stories of a Neca mask falling on the floor and cracking in half. I can take an .090 ABS mask and toss it out an airplane and it won't break when it hits the ground. When it comes to these masks, thickness, and even the material, it is not that important. As long as the mask is strong enough to survive it's intended purpose, which is to be a costume prop.I always find the "Fiberglass is crap" comments funny. You can make a boat hull or car body out of Fiberglass, a real hockey mask out of Fiberglass, but when it comes to replica Jason masks, fiberglass is weak and brittle, just no good at all....What do people do with these masks after makers ship them out <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":unsure:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"unsure.gif\" /> <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> I just find it funny. Fiberglass can be done wrong, and that's when it does suck, but the guys who do it right will make you a fine piece. I don't think it's right to condemn the material because a few people don't know how to properly use it.Peace.Jeff-<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndI do agree with you Jeff Fibreglass is a strong material but when it comes to Replica Jason masks I would NEVER buy another fibreglass mask because IMO they just dont feel right. as we all know The masks that were used in the movies were ABS plastic (with the exception of 1 or 2 I think) Fibreglass maks are too hard. some of the masks need to be able to bend a bit to get the right look. After time fibreglass does get weak and brittle. like you said, you can throw an abs mask out of an airplane and it would never brek.
