furiousd Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 I'm simultaneously excited for a chance to get one, and disappointed that it would likely be a money pit, since there are a ton available. But... if I really cared about the latter, I wouldn't be in this hobby. 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are essentially paying top dollar. these are no different, except that you can’t find them anywhere else anyway, so top dollar in this instance is also the only dollar.

SnakeOiler12 Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 I saw that Vegas is no longer a MEI Gray team, so it makes sense that they are selling them off. For a blank TI MIC of a pretty popular team, I'd say this is a very good deal. Funny that a little over a year ago, you couldn't land a Vegas GI of their AHL callups for less than $750-900 and now you can get a blank for $250 and make it into any player! Will probably see a bunch of these on the secondary market very soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatryk Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 How much for the actual custom job. Perforated numbers =top dollar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockey Bob Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Is it concerning that they listed them as "Adidas Adizero"? I thought the Adizero term was the retail version? With the button on the front?? Maybe I'm not up on the correct terminology 😐 Is the Adizero the On Ice version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EPS charges $85 for the perforated numbers on a 2016 USA World Cup, I would guess it would be similar. 35 minutes ago, Hockey Bob said: Is it concerning that they listed them as "Adidas Adizero"?

I think Adizero just refers to the Adidas material/cut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the term refers to both, except that the retail version is made in Indonesia, of course. Retail Adizeros from last season and this season no longer have the button.

jsh139 Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 “Adizero” is Adidas’s product name for the jersey cut. Like Reebok’s “Edge”. The fact that there are Canadian and Indonesian versions is irrelevant. They’re all Adizeros. But Meigray only sells team stock so you can be assured it’s the real deal.

The naming difference I believe is that the indo's are called the climalite jersery and have climalite written in the neck area where the MIC are not called this and don't have the writing in the neck area.

I think of "Climalite" and "Breakaway" as sub-categories of the Adizero. It appears that Climalite is their name for the material technology. They make other clothing that uses it (socks, underwear, shirts, etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKevinShow Posted October 17, 2019 Report Share Posted October 17, 2019 (edited) I pulled the trigger and got a 56 in gray and a 58G in white. I officially own at least one jersey from every franchise in the league now. Now I need to finish getting at least one authentic jersey from every franchise. I’m only missing authentics for Columbus, Detroit and Nashville. I also don’t have any jerseys for Winnipeg but I have several Thrashers.

SnakeOiler12 Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 For those interested, received my Golden Knights MIC TI from MGG today -- good news is that it's exactly as advertised. Blank TI with no internal tagging, but otherwise 100% legit with all the correct features. Happy with the purchase and not having to strip one!

TheKevinShow Posted October 19, 2019 Report Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hopefully they don’t run out of the blanks too quickly. Both of the ones I bought will be getting inaugural season patches but I’d like to do a SCF as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
