If you wanted to try something similar on a project then Tamiya PS-46 Iridescent Purple/Green Polycarbonate Spray is a good match, I used it on a Blade Runner 2049 blaster project to give the barrel a bit of an added kick, it's quite tolerant I could mist coat over silver paint with it.

That mask (not sure about the suit) was made by Amalgamated Dynamics, whom the CEO (Tom Woodruff) was from my Home Town. He held a Practical SFX talk in town a few years ago and brought several masks his company worked on during that time. He brought a pristine version of the Green Goblin Mask and it was insanely beautiful. From the looks of it the mask Tom Woodruff has was likely for scenes that required closeups and likely not heavily used (if at all) for action scenes. Cool bit of history!

It is already long known that, yes in fact it is true, that they wanted to see his mouth through the mask. Initial iterations of the mask were all closed up but at some point, someone on the decision level, after having seen Mr Dafoe's facial expressions and range of muscle movements there, decided that it would be a pity to hide those. So the compromise was made to have this see through mesh for the mouth area.

The one I saw Spider-Man at closed years ago. Not only did I see Spider-Man there, but in 2004 when Spider-Man 2 came out, that same drive-in theater had a "double feature" where they first showed Spider-Man and then showed the new Spider-Man 2, so I saw Spider-Man twice at the drive-in. The loss of drive-in movie theaters is just one of a long list of tragedies we've had to suffer through thanks to "the wonders of technological advancement". In this case, "streaming".

Okay, so here are a couple of thoughts I had: 1) Someone used bullet casings as the couplings for the top and bottom helmet pieces. Pre-made, readily available, and some caliber casings easily fight nicely into others. Smart. 2) Extra MOSFET might have been for another helmet in which the eyepieces raised and might have just been used for both helmets. They probably just made two of the same circuit boards not knowing if it would be needed in both helmets. Or it could have been for a remote-control receiver for turning the lights on/off by remote. It's unlikely that a radio would have been necessary.

The motor might be for the eyes. If you remember in one scene, when Goblin knocks out peter and takes him to a rooftop to offer Spidey a chance at joining Goblin, the eyes roll up so you can see his personal eyes. It could just be that the rotating hinges were removed at some point, and the eyes glued back into place. In that scene you can see the purple on the mask, too. I just re-watched it to check if I was right about which scene, and I noticed the purple in it now that I watched this video.
