Yep

I thought mine for $225 was nice.  I think I will be getting a black one when they become available.  I like mine.

I waited till I had this in my possession before posting. Last week I ran across this “Slightly Used Wilson Two-Piece Catcher’s Mask” on EBay at what I thought was a fair price. It turned out not to be a “Wilson”, but a Nike Titanium instead. it arrived today and it’s like new.

Hell of a find! And definitely a Nike planform.

Here's an interesting looking rig. Is this the one Wilson Contreras from the Cubs wears?

that's NOT a traditional FM25, that's the new Titanium version ...either the wording is wrong in the ad ...or, more likely, the wrong photo

right ... 21 oz is the original fm25, so ....it's the photo that's wrong

I saw this one too.  Got all excited and then realized that old saying "If it looks too good to be true..."  but then people like bluetick48 go out and prove me wrong!

My thoughts exactly. And $90 for a FM25 is insane.

@bluetick48 and @tpatience – you both got sad-face reactions on your posts representing the stinkface of loathing jealousy.

Trevor – are the black-tabbed grey pads a one-off? Know the story to them?

Tick – words cannot describe how upset I am with you. Instead of consulting the gear conclave here, and alerting us to this recent sighting of a unicorn disguised as a plowhorse, you recalled all the stuff we’ve discussed, recognized it, and took a chance that paid off brilliantly. Now there are only two questions: A) is it a true titanium model or a Titanal model (both steals at the price you paid), and B) are you going to use it, or re-rig it with Nike pads to re-sell it to an oaf for $350+?

 

Well Done, both of you.

This is happening more and more with you. Lol

@Umpire in Chief, can we get @MadMax a "stinkface of loathing jealousy" option on the pulldown menu along with ththe "thanks, Haha, confused, sad, like" options?

I’m not sure about the black tabs. The ones @Stk004 got have the gray tabs. So I’d assume that the gray tabs are available for retail while the black tabs might be more “exclusive”.
