So, for Christmas this year, I have narrowed down my choices to either a NO Shat or a NAG 98 Proto… I’ve spent a good deal of time comparing and finding out which appeals to me. I’m leaning towards the 98 Proto, but I want to make sure I’m making the right decision.
I like the Shat, but both a very accurate. If you’re leaning towards a 98 proto, stick with it if it appeals to you the most. It’s all in what you see in the mask. Satisfy yourself first!
Maybe look at sizes and choose from there if you plan to wear it that is.
Definitely both great masks, but like the gentlemen above me said, go with what really appeals to you and then decide if you want a display piece or if you decide to wear it make sure you get the size that would best fit you. It’s not the best feeling to finally receive a mask, only to be bummed out it doesn’t fit.
I am actually looking ahead for a christmas Myers mask myself. Starting early too I see !!
Thanks for the help guys. I wanted to have some reputable guidance before making an investment… thanks fellas! 
P.S. Abosultely, rrguitar!
Can you still get proto’s new?
My fiancee just went on Justin’s site and yelled at me because of the price. lol
I told her that the Masks are a much cheaper alternative to my guitar/amp hobbie.
She didn’t buy into it though. Im getting one anyway…
Who would be converting the shat for you?
James Carter
I’d have to see the masks side by side…if JC did both then it’d be a close call.
Are these masks still available to purchase new?
If James is your choice for conversion, then another thing you need to think of is getting on his over 3 year wait list. If your not on the list, your better off trying another converter, I would recommend Freddy Loper especially for an H1. I been on James’s wait list since 2014 to give you an idea.

Both/either mask would be a Grail for sure.
