Short story: Hard plastic mask with a 1 cm wide band. The band seems to be glued and not sewn on the ends. The mask arrived incredibly wide and with laughable foam "pads" to separate the plastic from your chin and between the eyes. This is not something that I could wear out of the box.

The real story: For six bucks, I was willing to spend a little time making this right for my little peanut of a head. I've posted pictures to accompany this review.

Elastic band attachment: Just needs a few stitches instead of glue.

Mask width: I changed the curvature of the mask by hanging it several inches over my portable oil-filled heater (<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Optimus-H-6010-Portable-Oil-Filled-Radiator-Heater/dp/B003ZM35ZW/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Optimus H-6010 Portable Oil Filled Radiator Heater</a>) (TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK) bound by a blousing strap (<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Black-Velcro-Blousing-Garters-Set/dp/B000HKNAB4/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Black Velcro Blousing Garters Set</a>) for a couple of hours. I stayed within arm's reach of the mask the entire time to keep an eye on it. I also keep the mask stored in my 10-cube closet (shoe) organizer (<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Honey-Can-Do-SFT-01247-10-Pocket-Hanging-Shoe-Organizer-Black/dp/B001F51AFI/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Honey-Can-Do SFT-01247 10-Pocket Hanging Shoe Organizer, Black</a>) to maintain the curvature.

Mask padding: I removed those laughable foam pieces and put my own padding inside. I used a nail buffer similar to this:&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/MASH-7-Way-Nail-Art-Nail-Buffer-for-Manicure-and-Pedicure-Set-of-2/dp/B005KBCBPG/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">MASH 7-Way Nail Art Nail Buffer for Manicure and Pedicure (Set of 2)</a>. Mind you, this was an old one, so guys, please don't destroy your ladies' nail buffers. I peeled away the buffing surfaces, as they're just glued on. I cut the dense foam bar into pieces and used a lighter to melt a groove for the bridge of my nose and the contour of where the pieces fit on the mask. I used rubber cement to affix the pieces and let them set for a good 24 hours before my final inspection.

THE VERDICT: For six bucks and some attention during Animation Domination on a Sunday night, I am extremely pleased with what I have.
