Good Costume!Nov 22, 2008
By J. Hamer The costume is great except for 3 things (2 of which can be remedied): 1) the "Hellboy Hand" it comes with is garbage (No way to make it better)! 2) The makeup the kit comes with is not as good as the grease you can get from places like party city - the color and texture from those red grease kits is closer to that of Hellboy. 3) It doesn't come with any black pants, so plan ahead and get a pair that you won't mind getting red grease all over.
The mask/head cover is a tad tight on me, so if your head is larger than average, you might have to cut a small slit up the back to prevent brain damage ;). I enjoyed the costume and was the only Hellboy I saw at the Greenwich Villagae Halloween Parade in Manhattan!

Looks good, but the smell...Nov 10, 2008
By J. Pappalardo My son was thrilled with his costume, it was just as pictured. What wasn't pictured though was the strong kerosene-like odor that permeated the coat. It was so pervasive that we couldn't keep it in the house! I hung it outside to air out for a week, no change. I tried spraying it repeatedly with febreze, which lessened the smell enough so that he could wear it. But even now, nearly a month after we received it, the smell is still detectable, so I wouldn't recommend ordering this unless you have time to air it first!
Item Not As PicturedOct 31, 2011
By Dan Downs
"funnyman and band geek extraordinaire"
After having bought and used the costume, I have mixed feelings on it. The coat is great - it has logos from the movie and a couple D rings as well. Between those things and the colored collar, the coat has enough detail to really make it seem like a believable prop instead of just a piece of cloth. The shirt, which is attached to the coat, is not as good. The picture clearly features an actual belt - you can tell by how it presses against his shirt and pants - but what the costume actually contains is a piece of black fabric with a belt printed on it. I'd rather they had left the shirt off and included a belt that looks more realistic. The mask covers the top of your head and includes the shaved down horns and his sideburns. The sideburns flopped around quite a bit, and refused to stay down even with spirit gum. The glove was the most disappointing though; the picture shows an obviously 3 dimensional glove, but what is in the costume is a thin piece of flat foam, printed on one side and fitted with elastic bands on the other. I was going to buy a better looking, separate glove, but I didn't want to pay $30 for an accessory I am only going to use once, especially when the costume itself was already $50. My solution then, was to take the 2D glove they sent, and wrap it around a hockey glove. With a little duct tape, this made the glove look pretty close to the real thing. I'm a firm believer that a costume's relative success (in other words, how realistic/good it looks) is based on details. The coat provided some of these, and my alteration to the glove provided a bit more. The final touch I added myself was to buy a cigar from a local tobacco shop, smoke it down a bit, and have it in my mouth throughout the night. The costume was a big hit, and I enjoyed wearing it, despite that it was definitely NOT as advertised. Oh and one more thing - there is some face paint included, but it is too dark and in too small of a quantity to be of any help. I picked up a couple tubes from Walmart for $1.00 a piece, and they were just the right color to boot, albeit a little greasy.
A final thought: Hindsight is, as always, 20/20. Having seen the real costume, and provided I had some sort of time travel skills, I would not have bought this item. I would have made it myself. It would have been cheaper - the coat can be gotten as a trench in that color from a local goodwill, and the belt as well; the face paint is already super cheap, and the hair could be colored and the horns made out of two pieces of cork and painted red. With money left over, you could splurge a bit on the $30 glove and also make Hellboy's gun for a more detailed and realistic touch.
cheap suitOct 30, 2010
By dale The coat is actually fine. It is the mask and hand that are really cheap.
Not that greatNov 19, 2009

NOt as nice as I hoped, the hand is not full coverage. only half of a front of a hand. Skull Cap looks like a bomber cap. Just can not duplicate the real deal in a costume I think
