First and foremost, no bashing, it\'s against the rules.
As some of you know, I ordered an X Hockey Mask from Trioxin about,...oh,...20 months ago. Still no show. :angry: But now I see SSN has all these hockey masks, "from the movie molds." Is this true? The X Hockey Mask they have doesn\'t look too bad, I\'m just wondering did they actually aquire THE movie mold? Or did they recast a Neca X Hockey Mask which came from the movie mold. *again, no bashing, I\'m not calling them recasters, I sincerely want to know* All the hockey masks they have say they\'re from The Movie Mold. Now, I see some nice shape on some of those hockey masks, but I think they all look like they\'re coming off of the same mold and being somewhat reshaped to match the width of the particular movie they\'re made to look like. Also they look really thick and I know the \'real\' movie hockey masks were pretty thin. .060 abs or styrene I believe.
So, in a nutshell. Are the hockey masks \'really\' coming off of a movie mold? Particularly the X Hockey Mask. Cuz I\'m getting damn sick and tired of waiting for my trioxin X Hockey Mask, it\'s been almost 2 years and I\'m really thinking maybe I should just give up on the wait and maybe get one from SSN.
Opinions? Thoughts? Does anyone have any \'behind the scenes\' info on the molds? Pugsly? Warlock? Trav? GB?
