If You Want a Mask, Okawara Is Taking Pre-Orders
Okawara told Reuters last month that initial inquires suggested the demand for the masks would be high. The masks based on his own face have already sold out once. If you’re interested in buying a hyper-realistic face mask, Okawara is selling them online. His shop currently features his face, priced at about $745, as well as another, called “No.1,” which sells for roughly $940. Pre-orders received during the first week of February will start shipping in March, according to the store.
Over time, Okawara plans to add new faces, including possibly from people outside Tokyo, to his lineup.
