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!
