Everyone knows the face. The Burger King mask and costume have become easily recognizable thanks to television commercials promoting the popular fast food restaurant. Now you can also join in the fun and dress up as the well-known King!
The first image of the King appeared on the first store sign in Miami, Florida in 1955. It was in the late 1960s and early 1970s that an animated Burger King was used in advertisements to attract children to the restaurant chain. Today he is a King played by a real actor from whom the King’s costume and mask were inspired.
It was in 2005 when they started selling the mask for Halloween costumes.
Two Burger King costumes for adults are now available for purchase. The deluxe adult costume features a bright red and orange tunic with a white collar, a mask, and a gold medallion. The second, called the standard adult costume, comes with a patterned brown and orange tunic with a white collar. This costume also includes a gold Burger King medallion and a realistic looking mask. Both costumes come in a standard size.
Want to add to the look? White tights and black shoes could complement the costume, making the wearer even more like the commercial king!
Just like the costumes, the King mask is also available in two different versions for adults. The deluxe mask and the standard 3/4 mask are made of vinyl and have King’s signature look. The deluxe mask covers the entire head, while the standard mask covers 3/4 of the head. Each Burger King mask also comes in a standard size. Each one will transform you into a king wearing a crown and save a dime!
The King mask is best known for the smile that spreads across the mask’s face. The Burger King mask also features curly brown hair, a beard and mustache, and a Burger King crown on top of his head.
Since his debut, the King has appeared in more than just commercials. The King, wearing the well-known mask, has been seen in many parodies in Tonight’s Show with Jay Leno and various movie promotions, including the simpsons movie. A video game featuring the King in a mascot costume, titled sneaky King, it was also created in February 2006. More recently, the King is said to appear in his own upcoming movie.
Whether you’re a fan of the King, the fast food restaurant itself, or want to get ready for the movie, a Burger King costume and mask would be the perfect addition to anyone’s wardrobe. It can even come in handy during the Halloween season or for fun at a local barbecue!
