XCVII Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Forgive me admin if this was posted in the wrong place. So I'v been meaning to start a thread on this mask painter out of Montreal, goaliemaskcollector.com. This isn't me advertising their name or website or anything. I was wondering if anyone here has purchased anything from these guys? Curious about the up-close finished product of their work. They sure have a lot of replicas, I dunno how he hasn't been shut down for copying all the Daveart, Cipra, EyeCandyAir, Harrison etc paint jobs. Steep pricing too. Anyway their Instagram page was shut down recently. Anyone have any experiences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wonder35 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I believe that these are the same guys who offered me $400 for my 80's Harrison which is not for sale. "Hey man, we would have to do a full respray." If I am wrong ...................... tough shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motowngoalie Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 If I recall correctly, he has some connection to Fusion masks and he gets his shells from them. He's a con artist. https://www.thegoalnet.com/forums/topic/3659-must-see-video-of-my-chat-with-don-straus/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XCVII Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 I actually heard that Tim Thomas cancelled his own autograph signing with these guys because he found that Steve Nash hadn't painted them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunnyman666 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I have heard nothing but bad about this entity. And @motowngoalie used the correct term: con artist. Reproducing art without proper licensing is just low beyond low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a shame the NHL goalies he works with don't stop the practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Tim Thomas didn’t participate in a signing. That makes me respect him more. There must be significant money to be made signing those masks that they either don’t care or they feel like they own the art work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XCVII Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 I do know for a fact that multiple artists including Stephane have sent cease and desist letter orders to him. I can only imagine all the money he made. I guess that's what pays for stupid life-size Ninja Turtles in one's living room. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I think most idiots who spend that kind of cash on this crap know it's replica. So what? Is your NHL jersey illegal because it didn't come from the team? I've seen his crap. Interesting stuff. Odd looking dude. They run a business that sells junk. It's always buyer beware as with anything that is sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
