Reya Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 Hey, I was wondering if someone who owns/owned this could tell me a little about this product. Were the pockets big enough for the masks? Did the entire set fit in the holder without problem? Does it protect the masks sufficiently? I know their are 73 flaps but just want to know a little bit more about it before possibly buying it.All feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

emily Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 The pockets are big enough for the masks, but it's a tight squeeze for the Akaku. The lenses stick out far enough that they will inevitably stretch out the pouch, if left in it long enough. With all of the masks in place, the holder is kind of bulky and the profile of the Kanohi can be seen from the exposed top and bottom. I've had trouble with dust making it's way in through the openings, though it mostly settles on the pouches and not the masks. The masks aren't all going to be completely covered, though, so some dust can potentially get to them depending on how you store the case.

Besides the Akaku, do the masks fit in comfortably or is there any noticeable strain on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emily Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 (edited) I suppose it would depend on your definition of 'comfortably'. It closes fully and securely but in my experience it assumes a sort of lumpy shape that might be awkward if you are planning to display the case. The rest of the masks fit in well enough, I believe, though there may be some minor straining on some of the wider ones like the Rau, I don't quite recall.

doodleloot Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I've had trouble getting the Pakari, Miru and especially the Akaku in the pouches since they're rather big and stretch the pouch a bit. The Rau fits just fine in mine though. Quote Hail Denmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doodleloot Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 This should give you an idea of how it looks when its closed. 1 Quote Hail Denmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specsowl Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 It's decent but a lot of my pockets have ripped trying to jam Mirus and Pakaris in there and some are bent at the top from the Akakus. The only masks that fit PERFECT are the noble masks and the Hau. Kaukau even has some problems , Kakama is too wide as well. However, I really like it and the canvas is an excellent material. I only wish that they spent a little more time sizing the pouches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doodleloot Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 @doodleloot: I really appreciate the picture. I am assuming the case is full? It's missing some of the Turaga masks, but even if it was full it wouldn't make much of a difference. Quote Hail Denmark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
