* Tn the ''Mighty Man and Yukk!'' shorts on the Plastic Man Comedy/Adventure Show, Yukk! was supposedly the "world's ugliest dog." As such, he wore a [[Cool Mask|miniature doghouse]] on his head that concealed his features. But whenever it became convenient to the plot to stun an adversary into terror-induced paralysis, Yukk! would lift his doghouse, and show them his face...At which point whoever was looking would absolutely freak out in gaggle-eyed horror. Of course, the audience only ever saw Yukk!'s head from behind in these instances.

* The original three ''[[Bionicle]]'' movies were very weird about this. All of the true faces of mask-wearing characters (all the Matoran, Toa, Turaga and Makuta) were kept a secret. Their heads were shown from all conceivable angles, bar from the front, so we got a vague idea of what they may look like, but the precise facial details were still a mystery. Interestingly, despite the director's apparent efforts, the entire head of [[Big Bad|Makuta]] ''was'' indeed visible through the electric flashes in the first movie, and it looked ''exactly'' like on his toy—a regular Toa head (toy version) turned upside down... so, technically, he didn't even ''have'' a real face, unless you count the one on the top of his head, looking backwards... The second movie had Fire Drones—little machines built up using the CGI body of a Bohrok and the maskless head of a Matoran. And they did face the camera... but their faces were too tiny to see clearly. In the same movie, the animators even went as far as to show the comatose body of Turaga Dume with his mask on, [[Fridge Logic|even though it was a major plot-point that his mask had been stolen.]]
