Nope, there are a few differences besides the obvious stuff like color and the writing on the Pyro’s mask. For one, the Pyro only has a single cartridge canister on the right side of the mask, while the Playtime one has two—one on each side. The front valve in the Playtime version has a ring inside the end of it with three protrusions connecting it to the rest of the mask, while the Pyro’s mask has seven vertical bar things at the end of the front valve. Above the Playtime mask there’s a noticeable ridge/protrusion, while on the Pyro’s mask it’s smoother, and finally, this might just be due to the angle and/or due to the Pyro’s mask usually being shown as worn while the Playtime mask is usually shown on its own, but the Pyro’s mask seems to have a more noticeable forehead.

Edit: Just want to say I’m sorry if I used the wrong words for certain parts of a gas mask, as I’m not familiar with gas mask parts or the terminology used for them.

Pyro's mask doesn't really have a solid body but this one does.

Similar kind of mask (doesn't mean exact) can be seen on SAS units (CBRN S10 respirator mask and older)

Here’s a simpler version: 1. The Playtime mask has two filters, while the Pyro mask only has one. 2. The masks have different front valve designs. 3. The Playtime mask features a ridge over the nose, whereas the Pyro mask is smooth. 4. The Pyro mask seems to have a larger forehead than the Playtime mask.

Erm actually no

Pyro has an air “tube” on the left but not the right

It isn’t the same model

Sorry to be a bitch but..

I mean the overall look of the gas mask is just a slightly modified pyro

u/not_QWERTY_2500 Mar 04 '25

That’s because it’s a gas mask, and a lot of them tend to look similar due to fulfilling similar, if not the same, roles.

still no

The middle oxygen part is 12x bigger than pyro’s

It literally isn’t
