@merjaymermanph3 years ago Happy birthday eric ducharme, the mertailor! Hope he will watch this as well thats business, some product will inspire one product but in a l run, we are happy merfolks after all! I used mahina, finis, and soon the fantasea.

@

@TheWalkingMermaid3 years ago This is funny because i remember when fox moon productions started having customers sign contracts agreeing to not make their own tails once e. D bought from them and started making his own. 18
@

@ouranios1003 years ago The drama actually started by accident. Ladonna started selling exactly the same fin in gold. Lucia made a post to address this, but accidentally tagged as for your video. I absolutely love that you did it, also i love the lengths you went into, in order to be as precise as possible. Thank you. ...Expand 9

@shadowscalestudios3 years ago This is spectacular. Fantastic video, love how you went through each of the differences and explained them in a practical sense. Definitely think the lucia is vastly different and is gonna be a game changer for sure. 5

@

@Veramontacaballo3 years ago I understand that mertailor also tried to say that the evermermaid monofin was also a plagiarism of his. I think every time it comes out slightly similar he does it. 6
@

@AlexieStar8 months ago Those bubbles come from mixing the silicone and not degassing the material before pouring. Not degassing and having bubbles can cause weak points in the that little nub is a reminent of the injection mold (a two or more part mold which the material isinto the mold from the top of the mold) that nub is where the pour spout was placed for pouring. ...Expand 1

@spenceryilagan73822 years ago How does it compare to the fantasea fin two? And do you think it would fill out the mertailor whimsy tails? 2
@

@alimitlive98902 years ago Do you think a lucia tail ( customize to the shape of the tail) and a fantasy 1 monofin will work togather?
also, do you have a photo of the fantasy 1 on the lucia monofin? To see the diferrence of their sizes. 1

@jackierenee16913 years ago I wonder what material is used for the lucia to make it practically stand up like that. 10
