The Japanese are always coming up with something unusual.
And this new creation definitely falls in that category.
Japanese mask company Kamenya Omote have initiated a special project called 'That Face' project and they need help.
The company has called out to Tokyo residents to "lend" their faces to model for full-faced masks.
According to a report in Mashable SEA, the company has even offered to pay residents to use their faces as a reference for hyper-realistic looking masks.
Frighteningly accurate
The product description said the masks would be 105 per cent accurate to the person’s actual face.
(We also don't get the additional 5%. Maybe they're enhancing features?)
Whatever it is, the mask is quite scary lah.
It's not so scary when you wear a mask replicating your face but when others wear it or it's placed somewhere else, errrrrrr... It's just so strange!
"We will buy and sell your faces. A science-fiction story has now become reality.
"No one yet knows what will happen to a world full of the same faces as you,” the company said in a statement as quoted in the report.
The report added that pre-orders of the mask are already selling out on their website.
Imagine people who look like you walking around on the streets!
Creepy!
