You've always wished to grow a macho 'stache just like your idol, "Magnum P.I." alumni and resident badass, Tom Selleck, but your wussy self is not manly enough to produce one fifth of the required whiskers. With the Tom Selleck Moustache Necklace, your prayers have been answered.

Not quite as itimidating as Tom Selleck's bushy bristles, the metal version will intimate the suave Selleck, but requires Tom himself to strike fear into the heart of enemies.
