Looks like you’ll just have to find someone who can make one for you.

Very disappointed that I didn't win.
Of course, I didn't buy the figure or enter the contest so that hurt my chances, but still.

Dale Elkins won it. I wonder who made the cowl?

My 2 cents...

This giveaway cowl is the prototype of a possible mass produced cowl.
I think the numbers of those that entered were well below expectations.
They probably found it too expensive to produce for such a small market.

I think they "reverse engineered" one of our cowls. I see a few tells.
He even referenced "somebody did a true replica of the one used on the show" in the video when he learned about the shell.
This was made by a factory overseas.

Considering what they previously presented as a "replica cowl", no one in their art dept. had a clue of what it really was without copying our work.

They only made one? Is it a sample (I did not watch video- scared to click on a facebook link)

[AndyFish]

Don't blame you Jimmy- I won't click on a Facebook link either.
Here it is on YouTube.

I realllly hope it gets made. I would LOVE a Chuck WIlliams cowl but cannot afford one. McFarlane would be more affordable and better quality than the Matty Collector cowl I have. However, McFarlane just lost the DC license to Mattel. Not sure if that covers cowl replicas as well whether they be plastic or wearable.
