Loki Mask identification needed...

I was going to tell you reel props makes junk but figured why bother you seems in ignore the first time I tried to help telling you it was not an icons recast . You ran over me and it was insulting like ok anybody else . So good luck with your quest hope you find out origins of the mystery mask :)
Yeah, right, you were going to warn me for Reel Art? :rolleyes Planet, please stay out of my thread, man. I don't need your "kind" of help. There are people on the forum who know much, much more about these kind of things than you, and have a more friendly attitude than you. So please leave me alone, and I'll leave you alone. You can't get along with everybody, but don't look for confrontation then. I started this thread, you gave your opinion. So stay out of it for the time being...
 
doesn't look the same sculpt.
In attachment a comparison of both masks. I circeled in red a few noticable details in the sculpt, and you find them in both. These are details you won't find in most masks on eBay, I think...

Anyway, the mask from "MovieGunsInc" is $99? The mask from ReelArt is $50, so that's half the price of MovieGunsInc. If I'd buy one, it's going to be the ReelArt version, since I don't see a difference between both, and I think MovieGunsInc is just reselling the ReelArt mask.

But since ReelArt has a recast reputation, I'm going to dig a bit further to see of their mask isn't a recast of another existing sculpt. For now, this is the best version I've come across, but I don't feel comfortable ordering something from a possible recaster. I hope I get an answer from Global Effects. It would be great to have a mask from the creators from the original prop, even if it costs a few hundred bucks...

Go back to the second post in this thread that you posted and tell me where you were helping anyone. First thing you did was give him crap because YOU failed to read his first post. It is quite clear what he was asking. Reading is fundamental.
 
Tom. I wouldn't buy from either of those sources. The areas you circled are on my cast as well and I believe I bought mine here on the board for about $75 - mine appears to be a bit softer though. It seems to be the same standard cast floating around that has been recast over and over again - the casts you normally find on eBay that are softer and less detailed.

I'm sure a much better source will pop up if you just stay with the search and don't give in and buy from questionable sources.

Wish I could help you better than I already have, but sadly haven't found much info about the various casts. I'm searching for a more accurate version myself, so if you find out something and more than one are available, I'd love to hear it.

I'll keep my eyes and ears open too.
 
Hey Too Much Garlic, thanks for the info. Indeed I'm very, VERY reluctant to buy from one of both. Do you still know who you bought your mask from?
 
He got it in a trade. But maybe where he got it from has more, sure. It's just not as sharp a pull as those you posted pictures of, so I'm thinking at least several generations down from the original.
 
just thought i'd post my chat with that ebay seller to give you all an idea of the type of seller he is:

ME: i'm interested in buying this, but do you have any proof of it's origins? how is it cast off a screen used prop?

HIM: its a RELICA you are not getting DOCUMENTATION go buy a
15k ORIGINAL if you want that .

ME: Hi, you've stated it's cast off an original, all i'm asking for is what's your proof to back up that statement? I'm interested in buying this, all i'm asking is a question

HIM: Don't insult items expect the red carpet treatment . go buy a coa for an original 15k plus bye bye

ME: I'm asking because I'm interested in buying an accurate Loki mask and as you've stated it's cast off an original yours is the one of most interest, but obviously I would like some background to it

HIM: lol Your a funny boy . Its a cast I mean this is not a hard thing to grasp . I have had almost every mask come down the pipe and this is the best .
You either look at the mask and say ok or you don't . I am not going to write up letters and a bunch of crazy stuff it is not going to make the piece worth anymore or less its a REPLICA .

ME: What makes you think it's cast off a real prop? You only have this one I take it? Where did it come from?

HIM: Ok now i am telling you to go away . Any more emails will be considered as transaction interfearance and will be forwarded to ebay
do not reply again. Your playing games and im not doing it




From reading the threads on here about this seller it seems this is how he normally treats people. I would have actually bought off him if he had given me polite answers, but there's no way i'd want to have any kind of dealings with him after his awful attitude.

Yeah, that's not a way to treat a potential customer. His mask looks exactly like the ReelArt mask if you ask me, but it's twice the price. I'll do a little more research, but since the mask the TooMuchGarlic got seems to be a less sharp cast, I guess that will end in a dead trail. ReelArt's mask seems the best until now. If it wasn't for it's reputation, I'd buy one. But I'm not in a hurry. Maybe another option comes up in the next weeks or months. The ReelArt's version will still be available then if nothing else comes up...
 
Punisher just answerd my PM: that mask comes from goldenarmor, which is defenitely a recaster as well. That's a dead end there too...
 
Guys the real creator and seller of that particular loki mask is Reel Art, trust me i bought two masks from him and they're great. This scumbag just bought it off Reel Art and is selling it for twice more. Idk anybosy has bought one from him yet but still, that's pretty low to do that, AND the way he was talking to razorsharp takes all the doubt away, that guys is a real scumbag.

Honestly it is the best replica i have seen so far (except the Icons loki mask), and i've been looking for nearly 5 years now. Reel Art guy had a screen used mask and he made a cast out of it and then made the replicas he's selling now. I don't like the paint job that much tho. But the mask itself is great!

He also had the screen used one and was selling it for $500, i was considering it, but something did not feel right. A year later i came back to Reel Arts page and found out that he sold the screen used for $3000 :p Oh how much i regretted that i haven't bought it when it was just 500.

If you want a great loki mask just get this one and repaint it to look like the screen used.
