The face invader consists of a small driver riding around in a huge [[Machine family|mechanical]] suit designed to look like a fearsome monster. The front of the suit looks like a face with sharp fangs, wears a shaggy straw skirt, and has spikes on its shoulders and knees. Most of the suit is bronze-colored with a maroon outer back shell and the front of the "face" is dark blue with neon green eyes. It is able to breathe out flames from its mouth and it wields a large pair of curved horns colored a gradation of green to orange. These horns are sharp enough to shatter ice when charging.
