We are moving deep into the spooky season and past the halfway mark in our 2025 Halloween mask countdown. For our seventh entry, we are back in the world of heavy metal, this time with an icon of thrash.
This is the snarling, skeletal face of Vic Rattlehead, the legendary mascot of the band Megadeth. This full-head latex mask brings the character’s “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil” design to life in fantastic, grim detail.
For those not in the mosh pit, Vic Rattlehead is one of the most famous mascots in music. He is a skeleton whose eyes are sealed shut by a riveted-on metal visor, whose ears are plugged with metal caps, and whose jaw is wired shut, forever silencing him.
This replica captures all those signature features. The sculpt includes the bolted visor, the ear caps, and the grim hooks wiring the teeth together. The bone-like texture and metallic paint effects make it a truly imposing piece.
Vic has graced countless album covers, embodying the band’s themes of political commentary, war, and cynicism. Megadeth themselves are no strangers to geek culture, having previously featured in Wargaming’s Metal Fest.
This mask is an essential purchase for a metalhead’s Halloween. It is a costume that is instantly recognisable and absolutely classic. It would also make a brilliant display piece for any fan of the “Big Four” of thrash metal.
