Description

An Edgar (Vincent D'Onofrio) transformation rig from Barry Sonnenfeld's sci-fi comedy Men in Black. This bladder suit was made for use during the film’s climax, where Edgar pulls his human skin off to reveal his true form. This suit consists of a rubber bladder vest, a second rubber bladder vest worn on top, complete with a foam latex back skin, and a rubber bladder cowl and neck with foam latex skin. None of the components display any sizing information. Each bladder piece includes attached tubing that was used to create an expanding effect. The skin is detailed with grey and brown paint to achieve an insect-like look. The costume show some wear from production use, such as slight tears and hardened foam latex, but remain in overall good condition. No sizes marked.
