Just Geek calls this both a Warpig mask and a Snaggletooth. Either way, this sculpt by Rick Fisher is impressive.
What we have here is official Motorhead merch!
… masks captures the band’s distinctive fanged-face logo, featuring over-sized boar’s tusks, chains, and spikes, which was originally created by artist Joe Petagno in 1977 for the cover of the Motörhead album and has appeared in many variations on covers of ensuing albums. The fanged face has been referred to variously as Warpig and Snaggletooth.
The gotcha is that “War Pigs” is a Black Sabbath song, not Motorhead. There’s not just one song associated with Motorhead’s mascot. You can see the likeness on the band’s Wikipedia page, and there’s no doubt that this Halloween mask is a great match.
