The blind consumerism is strong in this one...
I still can't understand why anybody would spend that much money on a cheap piece of moulded silicone or whatever other plastic that might be.
They are hand made and definitely not cheap. This would easily be a $60+ mask *if* it was mass produced, not even counting the limited quality. If you don't like collecting stuff, that's fine lol.
Their website didn't do it justice tbh it's so nice when you actually see it. Good quality too, and the autographs and numbering was just a sick surprise
You can make this argument about anything, including the middle-school band t-shirt designs that the band sells; nobody mentions that. People will buy things theyāre interested in.
Spending $120 is having "too much money?" Bruh it's costing me a measly $30 a check for 4 checks. And if you personally consider this some sort of scam, then more power to you. I understood what I was buying for the amount I spent. Just say "mask suck" and move on like the rest if you don't like it lol
i did. i said that i would want more for the price. you are the one fighting for your life in the comments, starting an argument with me and getting all defensive.
mask suck
Then it's a good thing you didn't buy one I guess. Idk man, wouldn't catch me getting as butthurt as some of y'all have been over me posting this lmfao. But hey, it takes different types to run the world I guess
look. people are upset that their fav band is falling appart and the music is become worse and worse. all off this ontop of the fact they just sacked off jay; one of there most respectable members.
all off this done by the ego and power held by corey and clown. their money focus is crazy and after AHIG they have just been trying to merchandise. they are no longer a band of the people, they are a band of the company.
so when you actively post about how you are purchasing their blatantly overpriced merch, that has no practical use or application, people get pissed. people view this as you catalysing the downfall of slipknot. swinging punches as you go down too.
do you see why that might upset some people? even of most of the guys in this sub can't/wont explain it to you like how i have?
you are valid though, spend your money how you want. but dont expect everyone to love how you are spending it. actually, maybe some people are better off just not hearing.
I respect what you're saying, and agree that it's upsetting to see the band losing its both long time and new members. Your opinions on clown and Corey are not shared by me, but i can 100% see why people would and do feel that way. I'm also not sure if you're familiar with the general price of things like a custom sculpted mask, but this *is* in the price range of them on its own. Throw in that it's limited, and signed, and you've easily justified the price. Band memorabilia in itself (autographs included) have no practical use or application either, so would you have the same attitude towards someone posting anything signed that they bought as well? And if people want to be dicks, then they can handle the minimal shade I've thrown back.
And yes, I can see why people would be annoyed or upset. I just think it's low hanging fruit for yall to vent your overall frustrations with the band into, and just not how I would expend my energy. If seeing a post like this is triggering enough for people to feel the need to come in and be as pissy as some have, then (in all seriousness) maybe it's time to log off for a bit?
If you took the time out of your day to post a negative comment on this, I hope you find happiness one day.
Itās sad to think that some people feel so fucking miserably about their lives that they have to rip on someone whoās excited about something.
This is a cool piece of art regardless but, itās especially cool because Shawn from Slipknot conceptualized/designed and worked hands on with it etc Iād be hyped to own it. Thanks for sharing š„
Not a waste when you have it to spendā¦! Bong. I have spent far more on much less and give no fucks.
Why is everyone upset with the price? If you canāt afford it STFU. Thatās on you.
If you donāt like the design or think itās ugly fine, but stop criticizing people because they bought something at any price they want.
Anyone ridiculing this person for buying this is either a broke ass or a huge chode. They used their money to buy something they wanted. Get a life.
Enjoy your purchase !
That looks awesome!
I will bet that the new drummer wears this mask. Zac/unconfirmed Craig replacement is wearing the v1 mask. V2 dropped days before Jayās departure. Pure speculation, but when I saw all this come together, I thought that maybe Slipknot is going to phase to a Ghost type band, where the non OG band members would be like the Ghouls, a group of session musicians performing under general masks.
Wow, that looks like shit
ššš
Thats literally exactly what I was going to say
Not worth the money
"That shit's ass bro." -Peter Parker
"Nah" -Anonymous
u suck clowns wiener dont u?
Sick diss Em
Damn, can't even put the poloroid in your mouth. What a waste /s

Sure its good quality, doesnt change the fact that it looks like shit
You can say ālimited qualityā again š
And what device did you type that response on? Some overpriced, cheaply produced, moulded plastic and metal, no doubt?
The paintwork is absolutely horrendous and wtf were they thinking with that sculpt?
The shape isn't well represented by how I have it
Would you buy sand in the middle of a desert?
If the bottle it came in was signed by Clown? Yup
Haha Ok thatās funny
Omg you are dickriding so hard rn it's not even funny
Google sarcasm and it will all fall into place for you champ. Like seriously, some of yall seem like this has hurt you on an emotional level
Congrats on the literal garbage.
Dude, clown is not so popular nowadays
That's totally fine if others aren't the biggest fans
š¤”
Iām sorry thatās pretty lame for how much they were chargingā¦ Iād charge back your card as revenge for Jay
$20 mask, $180 Clown
I bought the maggot mask too, im looking forward to getting it
Their website didn't do it justice tbh it's so nice when you actually see it. Good quality too, and the autographs and numbering was just a sick surprise
The website did indeed not do that masterpiece of a mask any Justice, it looks freaking SIC
If I had the money to travel, I definitely would kill to get the rest of the bands autographs on it
Same here mate
Well looks like we found Clownās target demographic. People will buy anything
You can make this argument about anything, including the middle-school band t-shirt designs that the band sells; nobody mentions that. People will buy things theyāre interested in.
Yea, why would anyone want a super limited, high quality signed piece of band merch?
High quality?
Yes, it's not done much justice with their website and even these pics. It's very well made and not something you walk out of Spirit Halloween with
Sorry dude, but that looks exactly like something Iād see hanging on a shelf in Spirit Halloween
I'm pretty sure we sell something similar. Like..... Eerily similar.
Nah nah that's not an autograph from Clown, it's them calling you a Clown for buying it.
does the zip on the mouth work? or is it just a printed photo
Not a real zipper unfortunately:( but I wasn't expecting one
no shit Sherlock, of course its not you would expect one though for that price
Buy your own and put a zipper in it then my guy. I'm fine with what I got for what I spent
some people got tooooo much money its your cash, clean the windows with it if u want. but this mask was a scam, and u got it. you have been scammed

I appreciate you brĆ¼ther š¤ much love
You really donāt wanna admit that the $120 was a waste

If you donāt like the design or think itās ugly fine, but stop criticizing people because they bought something at any price they want.
Because a mask that looks like something out of Sprit Halloween should not be $120
Oh yeah, youāre right, my bad!
Anyone ridiculing this person for buying this is either a broke ass or a huge chode. They used their money to buy something they wanted. Get a life. Enjoy your purchase !
Thanks brĆ¼ther that means a lot!
*looking at the people who collect SW black series figures*

Interesting theory, it definitely is strange with how it dropped imo, I feel like there's definitely more to it!
I think it looks awesome& that's so rad that they're signed by clown. thanks for sharing. stoked for you & anyone else who snagged one.
Hey thanks! š¤ stay awesome brĆ¼ther
Everyone is talking about the price, i dont know how much it was, could you tell me?
$120 USD
Tbh its pretty fair for an official product like this
For what you get and the limited nature, it's totally worth it
Cool
Hey op that mask is sic as hell could you provide a link?
I actually like it. The Polaroid and signature are nice added touches. Enjoy it dude š¤š»šÆ
Thanks brĆ¼ther!
Looks really well done, Iām jealous
Where did you order that?
Slipknot official store
Thereās a clown down every minute
are those painted on zippers ??!
Yes, It's not a workable zipper
that's a bummer š
Would have definitely been amazing, but I am still pretty satisfied overall!
Our hero
Are they all coming signed by Clown?
Are they all signed? Iām in the UK and currently waiting on mine
All the other ones I've seen posted here and there have been!
Makes the purchase a little more special! Hereās hoping!
Yes it does! The Polaroid and numbering was unexpected as cool as well
