No wonder he is evil.  You can't talk in it.  You can't eat or drink in it...heck it is hard to breath at times.

BUT, you are frickin Darth Vader dude!  You gotta have the mask.

I used it for a dress up party along with several other Amazon pieces.  It turned out awesome.

The mask is a great cheap replica and fits well.  Relatively comfortable and I do suggest you add a little more velcro to keep it on. (there is always some dip-stick at the party who will try to pull it off or hit you with your light saber yelling, "You are not my father!"  ....that is what you get for being the coolest Sith there ever was.)

In addition to this I suggest the breathing sound device also sold on Amazon.  The sound effect is stupid if you try to do it yourself and the $10 device works awesome.

I completed my costume for under $100 and it is totally reusable.  Since you can't really talk, eat, or drink I suggest you stand quietly and look menacing and other people with entertain themselves with you.  Also, if you drill a little hole under the chin you friends will laugh at Vader drinking from a straw.

Be warned...some ladies get a little frisky around Darth.  Again, if you are silent and play it cool they will cling to you!

May the Force be with you!
