Anyone planning on picking up the Target Helmets and "improving" on them?

I had assumed it would be very close to the $30 one, just with electronics, visor, and chrome paint.
If they are from drastically different molds I may have to pick it up as well.

I just grabbed the ST and Kylo ( Paid $5.00 for one of them[emoji3] ). Target has the $25 off $100 purchase. Not too shabby. I plan to mod both. Shouldn't take much work. The Kylo is huge. Not screen accurate, but acceptable.

I m exited what you will make out of these. really like to see modifications to make a cheap piece transformed to a high quality collectible. I would trie a cheap motorcycle visor for the ST lens though, just like this one...
not sure if I m right, but to me it looks like the original helmet visors are looking pretty similar when cut out..

I got lucky and found one those kylo ren helmets I'm surprised how big it is this helmet can definitely be modified with additional details based on the movie definitely going to do some touches on this bucket

I have one of these on pre-order, and it only said 'arriving sept. 2015"..... so thanks for the clarification that it ships to all retailers Sept. 30th. That gives me a time table. Can't wait! :thumbsup

How did the Boba Fett helmet look in person? From the photo it looks like it is flat or sunk in on the top. Is it worth picking up to easily modify like the Stormtrooper?
Definitely thinking about picking up the Stormtrooper though.

The Boba was alright. I'm not super familiar with the fan made super accurate stuff so I can't speak to that, but it would look good on a shelf with minimal work.

There have been several comments about how huge the Kylo helmet from Target is. I don't think it looks small, but I also don't think it looks unusually large. Would one of you who has one of these please post a few pics along with a tape measure? Be interested in the circumference of the helmet at a point just above the eyes, and also length front to back and width side to side (as seen from the bottom). That would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Had to stop by target a minute ago, and found the Kylo and trooper buckets. Even found one out of the packaging! Took forever to find a ruler, but here were my results:

I picked up the stormtrooper and boba fett today. Will do some work on the trooper to fix the seams, soft detail, and open up the little vents.
I haven't studied Fett that much, but the helmet looks darn good to me. Maybe a little flat on top and the stalk for the viewfinder is probably too short. But for $30 or less a bargain for a darn good starting point.

Its a great bucket to mod for sure. Worth the money

Hopefully the pics help someone make the call if they were on the fence!
I also found a blaster and was super excited, but it turns out that, like the nerf blaster, all the parts were on the wrong side :-(
I swung by my local Target and couldn't resist picking up a stormy helmet. I grabbed a neat stormtrooper hoodie, too, for only $19. Maybe I'm used to concert merch prices, but I thought that was a sweet deal. I definitely want to mod this helmet but I'ma wait and see what other people do first 
. I'm not brave enough to be the first, especially since I'm not as intimately familiar with the details as some others are.
