This skull looks like something out of the Terminator movie, where robots are masked by human skin. The Life-Size Steampunk Skull is available on eBay, with a starting bid of $49. I’m not sure why steampunked creations have become extremely popular lately, but I’m sure this cranium will be sold much higher than the starting bid.
The Life-Size Steampunk Skull will be the prized possession of a Terminator fan or a steampunk addict in no time.
